tourism. We can say that Eco Tourism is a tourism in an ecosystem.
But it is not mainly tourism but also conservation of that
ecosystem which is included in eco tourism. In short, tourism
involving travel to areas of natural or ecological interest,
typically under the guidance of a naturalist, for the purpose

form of tourism and tourism development, which encourages
going back to natural products in every aspect of life and
