Hard ecotouristInstead of using the word ‘tourist’, Fuad-Luke (2008, 7) talks about ‘eco-travelers’, which,according to his definition, goes further than plain ecotourism. He considers an eco-traveleras a person with an augmented sense of awareness of the consequences of his or her actionsand actively seeks ways of travelling better by contributing more to the places visited and bystepping with lighter ecological footprint. The main distinction is done between the conceptsof ‘tourism’ and ‘travel’, this is to say, when using a term ‘eco-traveller’ Fuad-Luke includesall types of travelling including tourism.
