A Commitment to Responsible Tourism Balkan Trek is totally committed to the principles of Responsible Tourism. Building close, long-term relationships with the local people and communities in the areas in which we operate, as well as partnerships with some of the most respected and effective local, national and international conservation organisations working in Bulgaria, we make great efforts to ensure that all our walking holidays in Bulgaria and wildlife holidays in Bulgaria are not only of the highest quality, but also organised in an environmentally and culturally sensitive manner. Not only does this help to make our tours more environmentally sound, but it also gives us as a tour operator and you as a visitor, a real opportunity to bring economic benefits to Bulgaria's rural communities, as well as help preserve local cultural heritage, and also conserve Bulgaria’s outstanding biodiversity and its expanding network of protected territories. With a Balkan Trek wildlife or walking holiday you not only have the chance to enjoy the best of Bulgaria's nature and rural heritage, but just as importantly, you can also contribute directly to its protection! |
