ECO-TOURISM Eco-tourism is nature and culture- based tourism that is ecologically sustainable and supports the well being of local communities. It appeals to visitors who want contact with nature, local communities and indigenous cultures. Eco-tourism targets travelers with special interests who are looking for unique and authentic experiences. It takes into account the impacts of the visitor industry upon the environmental, social, cultural and economic fabrics of the local community and strives to conduct its activities in harmony with nature. Communities are therefore a key component of ecotourism.   It is the responsible travel to natural areas that contributes to the conservation of wildlife and the well being of people who live alongside it. It is seen as a set of principles and practices intended to ensure the sustainability of the entire nature-based tourism industry.   Wonders of Creation Lodge is working hand in hand with all the Eco -tourism friendly hotels/lodges and private ranches. Most of these are those that mobilize interest to the locals, form wildlife associations and create a good atmosphere giving basic skills to the local communities to engage in wildlife enterprises, whose end fact will be to sustain tourism and balance conservation, economic and social interest in key wildlife locations, to the benefit of local communities.   How to Choose an Eco-tour. when choosing an eco-tour, WCT:  Builds environmental and cultural awareness through education, activities and pre-departure information.
