Wellness tourism is a tourism concept that reflects these interests. Wellness is achieved through a holistic activity that must be consistently maintained, even after a journey. An educational approach is used to promote the willingness of tourists to maintain a fit and healthy lifestyle. Education is a vital principle in the notion of ecotourism. It bridges the understanding between wellness tourism and ecotourism in the context of a new concept known as wellness ecotourism.
