Travel agency and sustainable practices
About this event
In today's travel environment, we are surrounded by the call to be more sustainable, to practice ethical, responsible tourism practices. Even travel agencies are not spared.
But should we look at these practices with pain?
How can a travel agency adopt sustainable practices, in their tours and in their operations? Why do these practices matter?
How feasible are sustainable tourism practices? What are the challenges that you may face, in implementing sustainable practices?
A 3.5 hour workshop, where we guide you through the many issues and challenges a travel agency operation may face, in the journey towards being more sustainable.
