What is good tourism? “Good Tourism” and “GT” Travel news and good news in travel & tourism …

The “Good Tour­ism” Blog is not in the busi­ness of telling you what ‘good tour­ism’ is. It’s pub­lish­er would nev­er claim to know. Rather, this web­site offers people the chance to share their per­spect­ives. Find below wraps of recent “Good Tour­ism” Insights, and the latest news from the net­work that makes “GT” possible.

Free­dom of move­ment, with­in reas­on, is a basic human right. And travel & tour­ism is everyone’s busi­ness. ‘Every­one’ includes not only people who earn a liv­ing from the travel & tour­ism industry, but also people who travel, and people who live in places that are trav­elled to and through.

EVERYONE.

That’s why “GT” reck­ons you should get into the habit of read­ing these posts and shar­ing them with your col­leagues and friends. And then dive deep­er into “Good Tour­ism” Insights for ideas on how to make respons­ible travel & sus­tain­able tour­ism bet­ter … for you, for your people, and for your place. For they are your people. And it is your place.

The “Good Tour­ism” Blo­g’s “What is good tour­ism?” posts sum­mar­ise the most recent month or two of “GT” Insights, “GT” Part­ner news, and “GT” Travel posts. In 2025, “Good Tour­ism” renamed these con­tent wraps from “Good news in travel & tour­ism” to “What is good tour­ism?”. “GT” retired its weekly “Good news in tour­ism” posts in April 2021.
