Abstract
Tourism sector due to its significant growth has been one of the most remarkable economic and social phenomena of the past. However, at the same time, there has been a proportionate and equally well-publicized rise of the potentially negative impacts of the rapidly growing tourism imdustry. Researchers have always been critical about the adverse social and environmental impacts on the industry. Ethical tourism signifies tourism which benefits people and the environment of different destinations. The tourism industry has to put in more responsibility and "professionalism" inorder to protect the "golden goose". The main characteristics of ethical tourism are economic prosperity, social equality, and environmental and cultural protection. Inorder to reinforce ethical tourism, United Nation's World Tourism Organization in 1999, adopted the Global Code of Ethics for Tourism. The purpose of its implementation is the main manner towards ensuring sustainable tourism which brings about benefits for both hosts and visitors(travellers) alike.
