Good Tourist: An Ethical Traveller's Guide

by Lucy Popescu

Advocating respect for human rights and responsible travel, this impassioned guide offers invaluable insights and advice to travelers who want to behave responsibly, protect civil liberties, and improve the lives of the citizens of the countries they visit. Behind the sandy beaches, panoramic vistas, picturesque villages, and historic treasures there often lies a bleak reality. This unusual travel book turns the traditional format on its head, offering less in the way of travel tips and more detailed information about the political, economic, and human rights status of destinations around the world. This activist handbook will help travelers feel good about venturing to their chosen destination and inspire them to stay involved in a practical way once they return.
