At the end of the day, it’s just not making a mess of the place. Regenerative tourism says, let’s make it better for future generations.ā€ ; going on trips that actively work on improving the destinations you visit, whether that be through joining a restoration project or funding a business school for women. In the words of the NY Times, it’s about ā€œleaving a place better than you found it.ā€
