Regenerative tourism goes beyond sustainability by actively improving and restoring the environment, culture, and communities that tourism impacts. Instead of just minimizing harm, it aims to leave a destination better than before by supporting local economies, restoring natural ecosystems, and preserving cultural heritage.
