Eco-Friendly Cruises and Activities

Cruises are not traditionally the most sustainable way to travel. Ships carrying thousands of people burn millions of gallons of gasoline to traverse destinations far and near, while endless dinner buffets result in tons of waste from food and garbage, which is often dumped into the water, causing pollution and endangering sea life. Their sheer size is greatly disruptive to nature as they travel to port. But a new generation of cruise ships is flipping the script, providing eco-friendly travel to lively destinations with a focus on sustainability alongside fun and exploration. That means working with local artisans, eliminating single-use plastics, minimizing carbon footprints, focusing on environmentally friendly excursions and working to preserve and protect wildlife.

Eco-Tourism Adventures for Seeing Endangered Species

Eco-tourism enables travelers to leave a lighter footprint while still exploring the wonders of Mother Nature. Some of the best places to travel off the beaten path are home to Earth's most threatened creatures. However, there are ways to see them that are safe for all those involved. Guided tours, traditionally led by local experts and scientists, are designed to show off the beauty of the creatures, while ensuring that the natural world remains just that, all natural. Nature reserves allow adventurers to see endangered species in areas designated for animals' own safety and many offer tour opportunities.
