Ecotourism in Peru<\/strong> is one more variant of the different Types of Tourism that exist to do in our country. As we have commented during the last articles, in Peru there are many Tourist Destinations<\/a><\/strong> that open a range of options to Travelers.<\/p>\n

We are going to review which are the Places to enjoy Ecotourism in Peru<\/strong>, a type of tourism that is booming, demonstrated by the impressive statistics it has.<\/p>\n\n

What is Ecotourism?<\/h2>\n

Ecotourism or Ecological Tourism<\/strong> is one where you can enjoy a natural environment or attraction, without damaging or trying to cause the least possible damage in the natural area where the experience is lived.<\/p>\n

There is a difference between Adventure Tourism and ecotourism. Many people believe that they are the same type of tourism, but in Adventure Tourism<\/strong> you enjoy an activity in nature assuming a risk or requiring physical ability. As long as any activity in nature is exhilarating or calm and the environment is taken care of, it can be considered ecotourism.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do the Nazca Lines belong to Ecotourism?<\/h2>\n

You could say yes and no at the same time, because some of these Lines can be admired from the Nazca Lines<\/strong> Viewpoint and have no consequences for nature or them and thus form part of Ecotourism in Peru.<\/strong><\/p>\n

However, the Nazca Lines<\/strong> cannot be fully observed from the Tower and the best way to do it is to fly over them by plane.<\/p>\n

But there is good news, because AeroNasca<\/strong> is in the process of certification to be an Ecofriendly Company, what this means is that we will be a company that will reduce its carbon footprint in nature and thus our Tour to the Nazca Lines<\/strong> will undoubtedly be part of Ecotourism in Peru.<\/strong><\/p>\n
