destinations, staying with local people and learning about their culture and way of life They stay in local Trang 340 accommodation, share facilities with local people, and join in with meals and celebrations At the moment, less than one percent of holidays are tribal tourism holidays, but this is set to change Tribal tourism is often compared with foreign exchange visits However, a foreign exchange involves staying with people who often share the same values Tribal tourism takes visitors to places where the lifestyle is very different from that in their home location Those who have been on a tribal holiday explain that experiencing this lifestyle is the main attraction They say that it offers them the chance to live in a way they never have before Not everyone is convinced that tribal tourism is a good thing, and opinions are divided The argument is about whether or not it helps the local population, or whether it exploits them The main problem is that, because tribal tourism is relatively new, the long-term influences on local populations have not been studied in much detail Where studies have been carried out, the effects have been found to be negative So, is it possible to experience an exotic culture without harming it in some way? “With a bit of thought, we can maximise the positive inuences and minimise the negative,” says the company director Hilary Waterhouse "The most important thing for a tribal tourist is to show respect for, learn about, and be aware of, local customs and traditions Always remember you’re a guest."
