Eco-Tourism For Groups, The Privileged Destination Tunisia

Ecotourism is a form of responsible travel in natural spaces that contributes to the protection of the environment and the wellbeing of the local people.

Ecotourism is practised in nature, in groups within small structures, while sustainable tourism is a broader concept that also concerns hotels in cities or cruise ships for example.

Ecotourism is also distinguished from nature tourism by its militant side: the responsibility towards the natural and cultural environment and the willingness to contribute to the local economy. while the paid visit of a national park accompanied by a guide Aboriginal people become ecotourism because they generate income that is used to employ local individuals and preserve a protected area. The motivation for ecotourism is therefore mainly to observe and understand the nature and the traditional cultures that it meets on its journey.

When well-managed, ecotourism promotes the protection of natural areas by providing economic benefits to host communities and organizations that ensure the protection of natural areas, and by raising awareness of Inhabitants of the country as well as tourists of the need to preserve the natural and cultural capital.

In Tunisia, ecotourism is starting to become a place gradually next to the seaside tourism that holds the palm in terms of tourist attraction but that has begun to lose its seduction lately. It is necessary to propose an alternative tourism product in a global context where everyone is now talking about green.

In fact, Tunisia with its parks and nature reserves is a suitable ground for the development of ecotourism. In fact, the northwest, Northeastern and Cape Bon regions in this case have a rich ecological heritage.

At first glance, it will be necessary to define what is meant by ecotourism. In the Face of the proliferation that exists in this area, it is essential to draw the line between such a concept and the neighbouring notions which may interact with it as organic farming or other. More specifically, the standards of an ecotourism project must be defined as the location of the project, the number of rooms to be housed … The definition of these standards is part of the broader framework of a regulation on ecotourism and the provisions of which will define an accreditation procedure which is simplified, shall contain incentives of various orders for persons Who invest in an ecotourism project …

In relation to the product itself, the greatest chance of ecotourism is in the parks and nature reserves that need to be protected. The latter are an integral part of the public domain and the idea that a private entrepreneur will exploit them is still poorly digested. A work remains to be done at the level of mentalities to facilitate the work of the proponents of private projects.
