The United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) announced it is now accepting applications for Best Tourism Villages 2022.
 
The Best Tourism Villages by the UNWTO initiative will return for a second year as it establishes itself as the world’s leading network focused on tourism for rural development.
 
The effort recognizes outstanding examples of rural tourism destinations with recognized cultural and natural assets, that preserve and promote rural and community-based values, products, and lifestyles and have a clear commitment to innovation and sustainability in all its aspects – economic, social, and environmental.
 
In 2021 over 40 villages from more than 30 countries across the five world regions (from over 170 applications) were recognized as Best Tourism Villages. A further 20 villages were selected to participate in the Upgrade Programme.

 



It is a body comprising companies such as Amazon, Apple, Booking.com, Expedia Group, Google, GoTo, Grab, LINE, LinkedIn, Meta, Rakuten, X and Yahoo.
