Caring for destination

This tour provider has taken action to address one or more issues (whether environmental, social or cultural) which will contribute positively to the long term viability of the destination and hence their site displays a Caring for the destination rating.

Main area of focus in Caring for the Destination:  


Akkopru, Dalaman river


Detailed description of the Caring for the Destination Initiative: 


The Dalaman river is still running even though a large dam is being built for the last 15 years (it is almost finished) The result is that a whole village had to move either above the lake level or to other villages in the area. Many people have lost their regular income or self-supportive way of living.

Thanks to the rafting companies, many jobs have been provided to the locals, such as cooks, drivers and guides. Locals are now still able to continue living in the same area.
