Top 5 Sustainability-Conscious Travelers in Asia – Agoda<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This survey, which engaged over 6,000 respondents across 11 Asian markets, spotlights the evolving landscape of sustainable travel in Asia<\/span>, where authentic and purposeful tourism, and off-peak travel are becoming more prominent.<\/p>\n

The survey found that the majority of Asian travelers (68%) consider sustainability when making their travel plans for 2025. Less than one in ten (8%) travelers overlook sustainability in their travel decisions, although less optimistically, in Hong Kong<\/span> and Japan<\/span> for example, where 21% and 17% of travelers, respectively reported that sustainability was not particularly important in their travel choices.<\/p>\n

Authentic Experiences Drive More Sustainable Choices<\/b><\/p>\n

Asian travelers are increasingly motivated by the allure of authentic experiences and the opportunity to contribute positively to local communities. Nearly one in four respondents prioritize authentic tourism, while 22% are keen on supporting local economies when they travel. Indian travelers, in particular, are guided by personal values and beliefs, with 24% citing these as their primary motivation for more sustainable travel. This trend underscores a broader movement towards travel that is not only enjoyable but also meaningful and impactful.<\/p>\n

Exploring Off-peak Takes Center Stage <\/b><\/p>\n

Many travelers in Asia<\/span> seek to mitigate their impact on the environment by traveling during off-peak seasons to alleviate overcrowding, a choice made by nearly a quarter of respondents. Additionally, 20% of travelers are opting for accommodations with sustainability certifications while 18% are packing reusable items to reduce waste. Japanese travelers stand out for being the most committed out of all Asian travelers to reducing waste, with 25% packing reusable items like water bottles and shopping bags on a trip.<\/p>\n

Andrew Smith<\/span>, Senior Vice President, Supply at Agoda<\/b>, said, “Asian travelers are increasingly seeking ways to make a positive impact on the destinations they visit. Agoda’s Eco Deals Program is one way we’re empowering them to do just that. By offering great value deals on partnering properties and donating one US dollar<\/span> to local conservation projects for every program booking, we are not only helping travelers save but also enabling them to contribute to the preservation of the places they love.”<\/p>\n

Since the recent launch of the 2025 edition, Agoda’s Eco Deals program has provided travelers with discounts of up to 15% on partner hotels across 10 Asian markets. This marks the first year of Japan<\/span> and South Korea<\/span> joining the Eco Deals Campaign, providing more Asia<\/span>-bound travelers the opportunity to support their favorite destinations. For every Eco Deals booking, a dollar is donated to WWF conservation projects aimed at protecting wildlife and conserving critical habitats across Asia<\/span>. More information can be found on www.agoda.com\/ecodeals.<\/a><\/p>\n
