Come and judge for yourself – see profitable best practice presentations from some of the top players in the Green Tourism Economy
A seminal event is happening at ITB this year.
The launch of the Green Destinations top 100 at ITB will herald in a new breed of destinations who address both the current and future needs of visitors, and of their own communities.
The list of destinations was released in December to provide a global platform for the exchange of good and effective practice.
It is the result of open calls in the social media, and a selection by 30 international tourism sustainability experts.
