What is vegan tourism?

Sustainable and eco-responsible tourism is well known, but vegan tourism has recently become the talk of the town! Far from being the preserve of a few, it’s a demand increasingly expressed by travellers!

Granted, vegan tourism is related to sustainable tourism. The difference lies in the food, for example: food tours that don’t include animal products, or gourmet meals offering only vegan dishes. Let’s remember the definition of vegan:“a person who excludes all animal products from their diet and daily life“.

In practical terms, you don’t have to do much to offer a vegan experience. All you have to do is pay attention to the materials used in your home and the products made available to your customers (forget milk, honey, etc.). You can set up a list of places to eat or a small recipe from your home revisited for them. Keep in mind that this new proposal could bring you additional customers. And since there isn’t much on offer yet, by proposing this type of tourism, you’ll be entering the veggie crowd” (“vegan” and “traveler”). If you need proof that it’s a good thing to get started, here are a few sites created by veggie travelers: Vegantravel, the Veggie Hotels network and Veganfoodtours, which offers 100% vegan tours of French cities from a different angle.

So, have you been won over by vegan tourism? Why not get in on the act too, by featuring a few good vegan restaurant addresses in your StyQR, for example?
