1 Listen Carefully

Listening is the first and most important step in addressing negative feedback . When clients express dissatisfaction with your sustainability efforts, it's essential to approach their concerns with an open mind. Acknowledge their feelings and assure them that their opinions are valuable. By showing empathy and understanding, you create a space where constructive dialogue can happen. This is your opportunity to gather specific details about what aspects of your sustainability practices are falling short from the client's perspective.

I would make sure I had a clear understanding of what a client's expectations of tour sustainability were, as well as the communication we had in advance of the trip. And then I would ask them to clarify exactly how they felt the tour sustainability efforts did not live up to expectations, and ask for specific examples. I would then communicate with my travel supplier partner and/or tour operator and share my clients' reactions, and ask for their reactions to my clients' comments. Liaising with my travel supplier partners, we'd investigate how expectations were not met, and how and why there were differences in delivery. And then I'd follow up with my client to share feedback and/or corrective action that might take place.

2 Assess Honestly

Once you've listened to your clients' concerns, take a step back and assess your current sustainability practices honestly. It may be uncomfortable, but recognizing where your efforts may be lacking is the only way to make meaningful improvements. Consider the feedback in the context of your company's environmental impact and sustainability goals . Are there areas where you could be doing more? It's important to be transparent with yourself about the effectiveness of your current practices.

Understanding a client's expectations about tour sustainability efforts, and communication we had about that upfront is key. By collecting client's honest feedback about how they felt expectations were not met, I could liaise with my travel supplier partner to understand their perspective on clients' reactions.

3 Communicate Openly

Effective communication is key to resolving any issue. After assessing your practices, communicate openly with your clients about what you've learned and the steps you're planning to take. This doesn't mean making empty promises; instead, outline realistic changes that can be implemented. Transparency about your sustainability journey , including the challenges, can build trust and show clients that you're serious about making a difference.

4 Implement Changes

With a clear understanding of client feedback and a transparent communication plan in place, it's time to implement changes. Start with the most critical areas identified through feedback and work towards more comprehensive sustainability practices. Remember, improvement is a continuous process; even small steps can have a significant impact. Keep clients updated on progress and changes, as this shows commitment to your promises and to sustainability.

5 Educate Proactively

Education is a powerful tool in promoting sustainability. Use your platform to educate clients about the importance of sustainable travel and how your efforts contribute to this goal. By providing information on the environmental impact of tourism and how your tours are designed to mitigate this, you can help clients understand the complexities and challenges involved. Educating clients can also turn them into advocates for sustainable practices within the industry.

We should have clear Vision towards sustainable tourism alone with goal and Misson. As all tourist places as well as all other places are our assets and we should preserve and hand over to next generation along with right education of sustainability.
