Green tourism is sought after
Along with the development of society, people's tourism preferences are also gradually changing. The trend of green, environmentally friendly and responsible tourism is increasingly being prioritized by many people.
This summer, Ms. Le Thi Diep Thuy (Cai Rang District, Can Tho City) chose green tourism products to experience with her family. With the message of environmental protection that tours bring, Ms. Thuy believes that this will be a meaningful journey, helping to raise awareness and responsibility of tourists during the tour and experience.
"Tourism companies are increasingly diversifying their products, especially this year, there are many green tours at reasonable prices for me to choose from. To me, travel is not only about sightseeing, experience and also trying to protect the environment. I think every small act of each tourist such as using environmentally friendly items, not littering... can also help tourism become greener, cleaner and more developed, Ms. Thuy shared.
Mr. Nguyen Hong Phat (Ninh Kieu District, Can Tho City) said that this year's green tour route is being promoted quite attractively with many diverse products.
Although there are many changes in equipment, items and experiential activities in the schedule, I think this is really new and necessary for sustainable tourism development, said Mr. Phat.
The transformation of businesses
Grasping the needs and trends of customers, this summer Vietravel Can Tho branch brings the message "Green experience, touch sidewalks" and " Keep the crab wings, keep a million green colors".
According to Ms. Le Dinh Minh Thy - Branch Director, each travel journey not only brings interesting services and products but also spreads the message of green tourism, sustainable tourism and environmental protection.
In each tour, we bring green substances and reduce waste to the environment. At the same time, it tries to convey messages about nature protection to customers. Notably, the items used for customers on the tour have been gradually converted to more environmentally friendly materials, said Ms. Thy.
Meanwhile, taking advantage of the advantages of rivers and rich nature, My Khanh Tourist Village (Phong Dien District, Can Tho City) has developed green tourism associated with experiences of visiting fruit gardens, fishing ditches, river cruises, etc.
"We have been exploiting fruit gardens and river cruise services - a characteristic of the West. In addition, the space around the Tourist Village is also arranged with flowers and grass, creating a fresh feeling and closeness to nature, ...", Mr. Cao Van Thien - Head of Marketing Department of My Khanh Tourist Village - informed.
The transformation of businesses is not only to meet a temporary trend but also a step towards sustainable development for Can Tho tourism industry. This will be a solid foundation to build a green, clean and attractive tourism brand, bringing more meaningful experiences to future visitors.
