OUR POLICY:
At the India Travel Centre we has always been firm believers in Responsible Tourism... a belief you will see reflected in our practices and responsible tourism projects. We have always strived to channel the effects of tourism to the betterment of the region. We believe with conviction that tourism should benefit local communities by generating greater economic benefits for the local people, by focusing on sustainable travel and last but not the least by conserving the environment. What makes India such a delightful destination is the authenticity that it provides. As a responsible tour operator who is really passionate about the region, we have always endeavoured to promote India’s true natural highlights and also its many art forms and make it a point to include them in our tours. You will therefore that all our ground operations (and your actual holiday) are handled by locals (who are such a spirited, warm and enterprising people)
You will find that our tours involve local dance demonstrations, complimentary ayurveda massages, visits to Indian villages and many such elements that both make your holiday special and also help generate revenue for the locals.
We also specialize in organising weddings in India where we involve a large number of local resources including traditional dancers and singers who provide for an authentic Indian wedding experience. In doing this and many other such activities we are thus also able to generate employment.
In doing all this, we endeavour to create a more enjoyable experience for travellers through more meaningful connections with local people, and a greater understanding of local cultural, social and environmental issues.
DEVELOPMENT PROJECTS:
Among other projects, we also donate five per cent of our profits to charities which fund education, medical and health operations for underprivileged children and adults in India
For travellers interested in getting involved with local communities, you will also find a section called ‘ Volunteering projects’ in our portfolio of tours. |
