Keeping with its annual tradition, Luxury Travel (Vietnam’s first luxury tour and travel operator and most successful luxury travel brand) announces its forecast on the travel trends to watch in 2013 in the Vietnam tourism industry.

Hanoi, Vietnam, January 7, 2013 — Keeping with its annual tradition, Luxury Travel (Vietnam’s first luxury tour and travel operator and most successful luxury travel brand) announces its forecast on the travel trends to watch in 2013 in the Vietnam tourism industry.

Multi-Generational Family Travel:

In the current fragile economy, people tend to go back to family values and enjoy holidays together. For them, life is a collection of special moments and family reunions. Geographically, families live farther away from each other than at any time in history, and millions of post 50s travelers are trading briefcases for roller bags. With time, health and disposable income on their hands, they are taking the kids and grandkids along. Luxury Travel (http://www.luxurytravelvietnam.com) has received more bookings for multi-generational private family vacations.

Wellness and Spa:

Vietnam has followed the lead of Thailand and begun embracing spa culture with a wide selection of resorts and day spas that are the equal of any in the world. Spa vacationers now choose Vietnam for various wellness and spa options, such as the 6 star spa at the Nam Hai, heritage spa at Pilgrimage Village Resort Hue, the all inclusive spas at Fusion Maia Danang, thefamily spa at Six Senses Nha Trang, day spas in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, the beach spa at Princess d’Anam or Antara Mui Ne or the destination spas at Emeralda Ninh Binh, Six Sense Con Dao or Life Resort Quy Nhon.

Active Vacations:

Travelers are seeking out ways to stay active and healthy on the road. They want to go to places where they have plenty of options to take day trips and enjoy active excursions from trekking to diving in Vietnam. The thrills offered are endless and span a wide range, including hiking, trekking, biking, kayaking, climbing, rafting, snorkeling, scuba diving, fishing, hot air ballooning, camping, yachting and more. Some of the locations where these activities can be enjoyed include Sapa, Halong Bay, Cu Lao Cham, the Central Highlands, the Mekong Delta, Phan Thiet, Con Dao, the Phu Quoc Islands and many more.

Bespoke Itineraries With a Sense of Place:

It is all about the experience and a storytelling. Travel should be personalized and luxury travel advisors are learning to blend experiences that are tailored to personal desires along with truly special options that reflect the destination. Luxury travel is no longer just about fine dining and five-star hotels. With so many new experiences on offer, it’s the stories travellers can tell afterwards that confer status.

Seeking Out What’s Next & New:

High-end travelers always want new and exotic experiences, plus value, both in terms of personal value and value for money. They seek new destinations, roads less travelled, new hotels and new experiences. They want to be the first to discover a destination. Many have moved towards a quieter understated luxury and plan their trips with a focus on authenticity and experiential travel, focused on enriching once-in-a-lifetime experiences. For travel experts, it is essentially about creating a package that is personal as well as authentic and memorable.

Eccotopia Planning to Apply for Matching Funds

The South African government has a program that provides funds for environmental cleanup, while Eccotopia has a solution for the disposal of the large quantity of acidic mining waste water, using Megafolia trees for the process of phytoremediation.

Cape Town, South Africa, January 07, 2013– Julian Moses, President of Symphony Trade and Investment 57 (PTY) Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of Eccotopia Ltd. http://www.eccotopia.com, announced today that Eccotopia has decided to enter into discussion in 2013 to apply for matching funds from the South African government for its project in South Africa. Eccotopia plans to offer a lasting resolution to the mine water problem in South Africa with the use of the Megafolia trees and their profound abilities in the process of phytoremediation. Currently the government has a program that provides funds for environmental cleanup projects that provide a “green solution”; the project is estimated to create thousands of jobs in the next six to ten years. Eccotopia has had favorable preliminary discussions with the labor unions in South Africa.

In addition to the environmental project cleanup system, the company will be offering a green energy solution starting in the 5th year of the project. Besides being an excellent natural resource for the process of phytoremediation, the fast-growing Megafolia trees are a rapid producer of biomass, offering the opportunity to produce both ethanol and diesel for trucks. While the first phase of the project will be to demonstrate that Eccotopia ( http://www.eccotopia.com ) has a solution for the disposal of the large quantity of mining waste water, the secondary benefits will be the production of “green fuel” for the vast needs of Southern Africa. Initial plans call for the hiring of 20 to 30 employees which will be trained the first year to be the future leaders in the rapid expansion of the project.

About Eccotopia:
Eccotopia has developed a number of significant strategic alliances with environmental industry partners. We offer not only innovative, patented technologies of our own, but also an unmatched ability to provide experienced, objective third-party testing and evaluation of new technologies and cutting-edge approaches to site remediation, decentralization, forestation programs and pollution control.

We understand the dynamics of combining ecological and environmental improvements with industrialization and profitability. We have begun to explore linkages between ecology and economics, looking to create new kinds of partnerships and enterprise out of environmental protection and restoration initiatives. Eccotopia’s principal commitments are to our partners and to the environment.

Eccotopia, Ltd. is a BVI Corporation domiciled in the Republic of South Africa.
