Custodians of a quarter of the land on Earth, Indigenous peoples play a vital â but underappreciated â role in protecting ecosystems, conserving wildlife and tackling problems such as deforestation. Travellers can support these unsung eco-heroes by visiting the growing range of Indigenous-owned and run hotels, tour operators and nature reserves and, in the process, have richer, more authentic experiences. We selected 15 of the best for you, so all you have to do is choose whether you fancy going piranha fishing, learning tribal drumming or seeing the northern lights as well as doing your bit to save the world.
