A key objective of geotourism is to make sure places are environmentally friendly. Some hotels, for example, not only provide comfort to their visitors; they also have sustainable practices such as using renewable energy sources like solar power for electricity. Hotel companies are also encouraged to assess the ecological impact of any new projects before they start building.
Another vital part of geotourism is to raise people's awareness of the history and culture of the places they visit. For example, tours may include visits to landmarks that have spiritual meaning to the local people, such as Chichen Itza in Mexcio, where ceremonies for the gods were often performed. These visits are often more enriching when tourists have the chance to interact with local people employed as official guides.
