Stop Being a Tourist: 5 Sustainable Travel Myths DEBUNKED
Don't ruin the places you love. Learn the 5 biggest lies about sustainable travel—from budget and luxury to wildlife encounters—and how to truly travel better.
Myth 3: Ecotourism Means Sleeping in a Tent and Roughing It.
❌ The Lie: Sustainable hotels must be uncomfortable, bare-bones, and totally lack amenities. No thanks.
✅ The Reality: Eco-Lodges Are Often the Definition of High-End Luxury.
I've stayed in some absolutely incredible places that were built with sustainability at their core. They offer a kind of luxury you can't buy at a typical resort: isolation, stunning architecture, real quiet, and gourmet food that's been sourced from the nearby farm. It’s true luxury, not deprivation.
The Action: Before you book, look past the glossy website photos. Search for hotels with independent certifications like Green Key or EarthCheck. These aren't participation trophies; they're verifiable stamps of approval that guarantee they meet real environmental standards.
