The travel industry is changing. People want more local, authentic experiences and there is no shortage of buzzwords being thrown around, like ecotourism and sustainable tourism, to lure in well-meaning tourists. So when it comes to animal welfare, traveling in an environmentally-friendly way, and simply being a conscious traveler -- there's a lot of confusion out there. So, is there a right way to travel like a local?

Today, we're going to answer that question with the help of Bruce Poon Tip, founder and CEO of G Adventures, Emily Bernard from PlacePass, Graeme Jackson with The Travel Foundation, and Stephanie Altwassi of the community tourism project, A Piece Of Jordan.
