AITO and its members acknowledge that tourism can have an enviromental, social and economic impact on the destination involved, so they have developed a set of guidelines intended to help companies, customers and local suppliers identify their common responsibilities to:
- Protect the Enviroment – its flora, fauna and landscapes
- Respect local cultures – traditions, religions and built heritage
- Benefit local communities – both economically and socially
- Conserve natural resources – from office to destination
AITO’s members operate inside different areas. Each one has its own set of guidelines to procure these sustainable tourism responsibilities:
- Establishing their own policies and involving their staff
- Informing their clients about sustainable tourism and where appropriate,
- Encouraging them to participate
- Working with their suppliers and partners to achieve sustainable goals and practices
- Publicising good practice to encourage and spread awareness about sustainable tourism
