‘Greenways’ was the first project of its kind to be developed in Wales and was established in 1994 as a Countryside Council for Wales pilot project in South Pembrokeshire, under the management of SPARC (now PLANED).an EU-funded Leader Plus initiative (PLANED – formerly SPARC).

Comment on What is the impact of sustainable tourism on the development of specialist T.O and the type of product and? by Marinus

Marinus — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 13:24:59 +0000

Sustainable tourism is based on the principles of a sustainable development in general. In the case of specialised tour operators it concerns three main areas:
- Sustainable management at home level: managing the office sustainably, using printing materials as little as possible or offsetting CO2 emissions are examples of this;
- On destination level: the services offered should be as sustainable as possible and on this basis tour operators should select their services. In this respect there seems to exist a widespread agreement that just labelling services as being sustainably sound is not enough and may even turn away potential tourists; a type of choice editing towards the tourist seems to be more suitable. Specialised tour operators have the advantage of their in-depth knowledge of specific services offered;
- On tourists’ level: tourists should be made aware of sustainability issues and foot prints they may leave; there is no sustainable tourism without “sustainable” tourists and the tour operator should play an important role to achieve this goal – little tangible as it may seem at times. The use of social media may be important and again this may be to the advantage of the smaller specialised tour operators.

Comment on What do you learn about in the Travel & Tourism course? by Isabela

Isabela — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 11:47:59 +0000

if you want to study international law, really don't lose your time with the Tourism course. I took it and for my personal experience, you don't learn that much as you learn working. If you are going to the law branch my recommendation is to focus on that!

Comment on what is the definition of sustainable tourism, and what countries are sustainable tourism? by Marinus

Marinus — Wed, 14 Dec 2011 08:59:59 +0000

Sustainable Tourism is all about the development of tourism activities in a region, a country or a community in ways that affect nature, environment and socio-cultural relations as little as possible so as not to jeopardize these relationships for future generations.
