Customer Satisfaction

The tour genuinely meets or exceeds expectations

A responsible tour should also be a good tour. This sub-indicator measures the overall quality of the visitor experience — whether travellers feel their expectations were met or exceeded, and whether the operator consistently delivers what it promises.
