Eco Tours Abroad

Ecotourism is perhaps the best way to experience all of the remarkable sensations of a beautiful, natural environment and feel great about doing it, too. So, what is eco tourism? Great question! Ecotourism is defined as "responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment, sustains the well-being of the local people, and involves interpretation and education.” Don’t worry, this isn’t volunteering masked as adventure travel. If you think exploring ancient ruins, trekking through lush rainforests, or coming face to face with the world’s most endangered animals on eco tours won’t get your blood pumping, then think again!

If you're on the fence about taking the course, do it. It's an incredible experience that will either A) give you a new skillset or B) teach you a lot about yourself. Even if you don't end up working in the industry, the memories and stories you'll have make it worth it.
