What is a "Fair Trek" in Laos
We have
created a new generation of community-based tourism in Laos, that connects
government offices to local tour companies and to local villages. Together, this
alliance can provide tourism products which effect communities in a positive way.
The project generates jobs and limits numbers of visitors. It also promotes remote
areas and makes these low income areas a new and interesting destination for responsible
visitors. The funds which were created include a "village fund" and a
"re-forestration fund" in which every guest have to make his contribution.
You can also be a part of "Fair Trek" in Laos and join one of
the tours or come to volunteer with us for a certain period.
A "Fair Trek" always follows the guidelines and the mission!
