Sustainable Tourism and Hospitality
The philosophy of Athang Adventures is sustainable tourism and hospitality. Now what is Sustainable tourism? Sustainable tourism is a continuous process of making positive impact on the environment, economy and society. It is a concept of visiting a place with great respect for the inhabitants of the area, their cultures, customs and socio-economic systems.
Sustainable tourism focuses on human activity while preserving natural ecosystems and its maintenance for future generations without compromising tourist satisfaction. Many locations greatly rely on the tourism industry and its viability. It is understood that creating a positive experience for the visitors may have a heavy economic impact. The emphasis is placed on providing an enjoyable experience for the visitors as long as they leave local customs and natural resources unblemished. Tourists are expected to accept the local way of life and respect the area’s cultures. The ultimate goal is to promote understanding and tolerance between different civilizations from around the world.
