Eco-tourism in Hanoi

There are many different types of tourism for many different target groups with different interests, but ecotourism is still one of the types of tourism that is extremely loved by many domestic and international tourists. So do you know clearly what eco-tourism is? Eco-tourism is a type of tourism aimed at natural and wild locations, with a pristine and quiet nature. This is a type of tourism that is in harmony with nature and is said to replace the current form of commercial tourism.

The special thing that makes eco-tourism different from other types of tourism is that eco-tourism is extremely responsible for nature, contributing to protecting the environment and improving the lives of local people. The purpose of eco-tourism is to educate visitors as well as support the economic growth and status of that locality, creating many opportunities for future development.

Why do many people love ecotourism?

All the arrangement, plans, pick-up & drop-off services, hotels, vehicles, sightseeing tours and guides were spot on and excellent. Did 4 nights Hanoi, 1 night Hà Long Bay cruise, 3 nights Hoian, 4 nights Saigon and 1 night in Can Tho. It was totally awesome. Every part of the journey was superbly arranged and planned. I will highly recommend Impress Travel for anyone interested in visiting Vietnam. Very organized and reliable!
