Green Tourism Business Scheme

Since its inception in 1997 the Green Tourism Business Scheme has been championing sustainable green tourism in the UK, and has become the largest and most successful scheme of its type in the world. Currently with over 1100 members, the aim is to build on this strong position and ensure that the UK remains at the forefront of sustainable green tourism in the future. GTBS has proven its use, time and again as a powerful tool for businesses, delivering demonstrable environmental benefits, operating efficiencies and cost savings; as well as increased marketing potential, by providing consumers with a clear option to use sustainable products and services.

The Schemes flexibility allows participation from a wide range of tourism businesses, ranging from accommodation providers to visitor attractions and many others besides.
