Recognizing this fact, Rebuilding Travel has created the personalized Safer Tourism Seal to accompany the Safer Tourism Seal for travel destinations.
Holders of the Safer Tourism Pass vow to be responsible travelers, to abide by local health guidelines that the World Health Organization and national health departments have put into place. The STP means that the traveler is responsible, and vows to protect not only him/herself but also all fellow travelers. STP holders represent the best in travel and demonstrate to the world, that safer travel is everyone’s responsibility.
