WHAT DO WE WANT?

Tourism is the world’s fastest growing industry and is expected to go on growing well into the 22nd century.  Most of that growth will be in developing countries.

It has a huge impact on many communities.  Along side the benefits roads, income. Links with the rest of the world–has been the downside for many communities where tourism development has been too fast, too big, or to heavy-handed, many poor communities have seen farmland and fishing ground taken over, their villages and beaches swamped by visitors.  And it often brings stark contrast between local living standards and a lavish, resort way of life.  Who Can Stop These All?

Like many other tourism practitioners, we at Nusa Wisata Adventure Specialist also want to have the Indonesia's Eastern Islands be promoted worldwide and more visited.  But, we are more concerned at the impact tourism has on communities and environment.  We support the development of tourism – tourism that travelers enjoy and their Vacation Privacy is well guaranteed but must not at the expense of local communities we visit.

Our Nusa Wisata Adventure Specialist tries to offer more attractive and quality tours that have a Positive Impact on host communities; that are sustainable – and which don’t destroy the livelihood or culture of the host community and the attractions that brought tourists in the first place.  Nusa wisata Adventure specialist supports tourism that keeps benefits in the host community, and where the local community has some control over the role of tourism in their lives.

WHAT DOES Nusa Wisata Adventure Specialist DEDICATE TO?

Nusa Wisata Adventure Specialist realized that this Planet is only a loan from our next generations.  Therefore we are dedicated to:

  • Promote tourism which does not threaten the society and environment of the host community;

  • Supporting local communities in the Indonesia's Eastern Islands who are setting low impact tourism ventures;

  • Linking up travelers and Tour Operators who want to travel and operate tours in the Indonesia's Eastern Islands lightly and responsibly;
