What is "Sustainable Tourism"? A step beyond eco-tourism? Perhaps.
It is adopting practices to minimize the impact of tourism (on the local environment and indigenous culture) while improving the local economy, providing jobs, and actively improving the environment.
In Bali, Bhanuswari Resort & Spa is engaged in Sustainable Tourism. Only local staff are employed, at all levels.
They offer guided treks through surrounding rice fields - rice fields that are being farmed in traditional manner, without tractors and heavy chemical fertilizers.
The Resort Management is an active part of the local community.
Balinese Hindu ceremonies take place on-site.
The site around ancient holy springs has been cleaned and improved, continuing to provide easy local access for villagers.
If you are interested in experiential travel, meeting the local people, learning about the culture, and assisting in sustaining this beautiful environment - while still having a luxury experience complete with excellent mattresses, individual air-conditioning, beautiful landscaping, and on-site massage services at the Spa, please check out BHANUSWARI RESORT & SPA at http://www.BhanuswariUbud.com .
