THE Trinidad and Tobago Incoming Tour Operators Association (TTITOA) is calling for the reopening with policy enforcement of eco-tourism assets in the Bush Bush Sanctuary within the Nariva Swamp, which have been shut off due to yellow fever concerns.
A statement yesterday signed by association vice president Stephen Broadbridge raised concerns over the prolonged closure of the popular tour site, which has already begun to impact eco-tourism operators.
The release noted that the tours were also part of the sustainable livelihood of members of the surrounding community. It added that eco-tourists visiting T&T were typically well-informed and most were vaccinated prior to travel, significantly reducing public health risks.
