In Brief

Sustainable tourism is based on 6 main pillars: protecting ecological resources, maintaining social and cultural responsibility, creating good jobs for local people, contributing to economic development, satisfying customers, and operating a profitable business.

We define sustainable tourism as protecting the environment together, creating a more beautiful place for people to live, and crafting a more beautiful place for travelers to visit and experience. We ensure cultural preservation by promoting local heritage, customs, and practices.

We are committed to conducting business with professional ethics, promoting the culture and lifestyle of the local people, and introducing the quintessence of local heritage, history, fine arts, and cuisine to the local community and domestic and international travelers.

We use local human resources, train and develop working standards, pay stable salaries, and ensure social security for local people. We contribute to local and national socio-economic development in order to create jobs, reduce poverty, and provide the best possible working conditions.
