Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

Eco-Journeys is for people who want to get the most out of a wilderness vacation without making a negative impact on a fragile environment. The book includes only environmentally responsible tours that promote ecological awareness as well as fun and adventure. Some tours even allow hands-on participation in local conservation efforts, such as researching dolphins in Belize or tracking grizzlies in Alaska. Sure to be the definitive resource for ecologically conscious travelers everywhere!

From Library Journal

The author, a contributor to Travel & Leisure and Discovery , gives a fairly detailed description of tours that provide the traveler with a variety of ecologically sound wilderness experience. For each journey he lists travel mode, accommodations, cost, duration, and time of year available. The trips are divided into categories: Safe Thrills, Comfortable Wilderness, Family, Raw Adventure, Not Ordinary Trips, and Special Needs (for those with physical disabilities). They are then listed by continent and country. Although it purports to be a world guide, the book does not mention any trips in Europe or Australia. A list of tour operators, with addresses and telephone numbers, is included. This useful guide is recommended for most travel collections.
