GNF and TUI present Souvenir Guide

Together with the tour operator TUI, the Global Nature Fund (GNF) compiles information and tips which help travellers to avoid unpleasant surprises at customs, preserve the biological diversity of the holiday destination and make an additional contribution to the local economy.

Handicrafts, jewellery, culinary delights - souvenirs brought home from holidays are popular. However, there are souvenirs that have a bitter aftertaste. Some damage the biological diversity of the holiday destination or affect the habitats of endangered animal species. A new online souvenir guide by GNF and TUI therefore gathers information to help travellers choose the right souvenirs.

The partners created special guides for Spain, Turkey, Greece, Thailand, and the Dominican Republic that address the characteristics of these popular holiday destinations. Travellers can find out which souvenirs are better to avoid - and which products are a pleasant memory and can be taken home with a clear conscience. Guidelines for other holiday destinations are already being planned.
