Balancing tourism with sustainability

We're bringing people to Bruny Island and we're taking them around the place and around various areas of the world, and we're really trying to minimise our impact. Both on local communities, but also very importantly on the nature that we go to see.  

A large group for me would be 12 people, and we try and minimise the impact wherever we go. For example I would not take people to see eagles nesting, because I'd be terrified of disturbing the eagles and I wouldn't want to live with the consequences of an abandoned nest. 

So we have a lot of principles that we stick to, and I think that also helps with our business. People come on our tours because they know that we're very ethical and that we practise what we preach. 

Also, a lot of the proceeds from the business go into conservation. It's a way for me to raise money to help the Inala Foundation. Whichever way you look at it we try to make positive outcomes wherever we can.

 So we try to have as minimal impact as possible.
