Ecotours New Zealand Definition of Ecotourism
By completing the Application ecotourism operators agree that their Operation is primarily concerned with:
"The observation of living organisms within their natural environment where the operation does not degrade, and may enhance the environment so that it can continue to be enjoyed by future generations.
There is an educational element to the operation. The participants will learn from expert guides and hopefully gain an increased respect and love for the environment

We have found the most environmentally responsible guides and culled the relevant information through extensive research, word of mouth referrals and recommendations from other operators, travellers, and environmental specialists. In addition, noted author and naturalist, Brian Parkinson provides in depth first-hand knowledge as well as a unique Guide to New Zealand Wildlife.
We want to get our visitors started on their quest to experience the stunning natural beauty of our country.
