Community tourism is a travel approach where local residents actively participate in planning and managing tourism activities. It aims to ensure that tourism benefits are shared directly with the community, promoting cultural exchange, sustainable practices, and economic support for local businesses and initiatives.
Community tourism focuses on local engagement and benefits, involving residents in decision-making and ensuring that tourism profits support the community directly. In contrast, commercial tourism prioritizes profit and often relies on large-scale operations and corporate interests, which may limit local involvement and benefits.
Through Otithi, a portion of the package price goes directly to the communities you visit, supporting local businesses and initiatives. This approach helps create greater opportunities for income generation and empowerment, contributing to the positive and lasting growth of these communities.
