| المستخلص: | Tourism is a major source of economic development in many desert destinations. On the other hand, non- activation of laws and regulation can lead to uncontrolled exploitation of desert's resources. The responsible tourism contributes to preservation of the social and environmental resources in the desert. This paper aimed to evaluate the principles of responsible tourism during the implementation of desert tours in Hurghada. The measured items were motorized, non-motorized travel in the desert and the responsible principles applied on desert activities to conserve environment. On the other hand, the responsible travel principles, which enhance the local community, were measured. Moreover, it tried to identify the problems facing the application of the responsible tourism principles. Forty questionnaires were directed to staff working in travel agencies in Hurghada. The findings of this paper illustrated that the most applied principles are non- motorized travel in the desert followed by motorized travel; the desert tour and the local community subsequently. The responsible principles of conserving environment during desert tours are the lowest applied principles. |
