Ecotourism in action - a Durban gem
What exactly is community-based ecotourism – a term that is bandied about so often nowadays? What does it mean, how does it work, and what are the benefits?
In this episode, we chat with a Durban mover and shaker in the tourism world, Amimi Mlaba.
Amimi has put the concept of community-based ecotourism into practice through his very successful ecotourism venture, iSithumba Adventures, one of the Green Corridors supported sites, in the heart of rural Valley of 1000 Hills, just 20 minutes’ drive from Hillcrest.
We learn how ecotourism helps people to connect with natural areas and the people that live there and how this can support cultural and environmental preservation.
Not all ecotourism is about seeing the Big 5. It is also about going into hidden, unexplored spaces to experience firsthand, learn about different cultures, and connect on a much deeper level. Green Corridors website
