- Decalogue of the responsible tourist
For femturisme.cat, respect for our land has always been a primary point. Therefore, the fact of knowing and visiting must always go hand in hand with the maximum respect for what we interact with, in our case , culture, ecosystems, economy and society. Although we already know that our users are responsible tourists, it never hurts to remind them of good practices.
Here we give you ten tips to follow to minimize the negative impact when you carry out tourist activity.
Prepare the trip
Find out about the destination you plan to visit. Learn about their culture, history, customs and rules of etiquette. The more you know, the better you will be able to respect and understand the site you visit.
Reduce your ecological footprint
Opt for sustainable means of transport, such as electric vehicles, public transport or bicycles. Consume responsibly and choose accommodations and activities that are respectful of the environment.
