Choosing ecofriendly tours and accommodation is one of the best ways you can limit your impact on the environment. But what is ecotourism? Basically any tourism venture that is ecologically sustain-able, focuses on experiencing natural areas, and fosters environmental and cultural understanding and conservation. In Australia, look for operators sporting the eco-tick assurance, determined by Ecotourism Australia (www.ecotourism.org.au). This accreditation is rigorous and graded.

The following choices have all been selected by Lonely Planet authors because they demonstrate an active sustainable-tourism policy. It’s not an exhaustive list and we want to continue develop-ing our sustainable-tourism content. If you have a suggestion or amendment, email us at www.lonelyplanet.com/feedback.
