A8 French Polynesia is hiding a great number of tiny islets - Motus. Motu is a reef islet formed by broken coral and sand, surrounding an atoll. We love taking our guests to discover these Motus! š„ @ChrisStanleyHD #TWchats

A9: The question implies there is a phenomenon of "irresponsible travel", so lets deal with that, as that seems more real than the amorphous concept of "traveling responsibly", which so begs some insincere "mea culpa", which I am so not doing. #TWchats

A9: @twtravelnews Responsible travel means leaving communities better than they were when we arrived. On our Cruise With Purpose Tours guests can pay-it-forward & assist in scientific research, bring much-needed supplies to an orphanage, replant a native forest & more! #TWChats


A8 Found some really cool bars around Seoul (and I was usually the only non-Korean). https://t.co/gpxUHWFboz #TWchats https://t.co/jHa2y50LCf

@TWtravelnews This is a beautiful wood-fired sauna in Sweden, on the Baltic Sea!
The island where it's located only reachable by boat (any kind).

A9: I try to learn cultural practices & basic phrases beforehand, & of course treat people & environments w/respect. Also, seek out experiences that leave $ in the hands of local residents. #TWchats

A9 Responsible travel can mean about 40 different things. To me, it's being respectful of local customs and traditions, keeping an open mind when people have opinions different than yours, and always trying to approach a new place with a deeply felt, genuine curiosity. #TWchats

A9: @twtravelnews We practice responsible travel by teaching sustainability! With our "Whalesafe Project", our youngest guests cruising through the Pelagos Sanctuary learn about how Costa Cruises helps protect the species in the protected area. #TWchats https://t.co/tlyLbsVVG4

Love: An unapologetic sense of culture and history, nature and urban development, FOOD! A great festival, like Sao Joao in Porto, never hurts.
Dislike: Lack of safety, overcommercialization, hostility to tourists. #twchats https://t.co/Ip3jeVHNrj

A9: Downloading our new #myAmaCruise app helps you be a responsible traveler in two ways: 1. By informing you a bit more about the places you visit and 2. By saving valuable paper resources by reading that information through your device and sending digital postcards! #TWchats


replying to @AFARmedia A9: We dug into this quite a bit in our most recent (May/June 2019) issue. Check it out. #TWchats https://t.co/l9C5EUZ7nV

A9: Responsible travel includes respecting local customs. Ie: in some East Asian countries, sticking chopsticks upright in your rice bowl is reserved for honoring the dead. Instead, place them down next to your bowl or on a chopstick holder if you have one #TWchats


A9: Responsible travel is best achieved through cultural education. Our partnership with @UNESCO makes it possible for our guests to practice mindfulness as they discover #WorldHeritage sites, and the rich culture and history of their locales: https://t.co/CyULQU7fZ6 #TWchats
