At present, eco-friendly activities has developed into various forms which not only are fun for tourists to part take, they are also educational. Key is to bring the strong aspect of the locale and turn it into various activities. TAT has been organizing many of these activities in Bangkok and the provinces, for example the two-wheel tour in Praj Lab Lae Town of Uttradit province where tourists ride the bicycle within the community. Not only it’s pollution free, it’s also a way of showing respect to the people and the places visited. Tourists also witness locals’ craftsmanship, learn how to process the produce and help built the dikes which is a lot of fun and beneficial to the community. The joy of achieving something together with the locals is priceless.
