There are two versions of sustainable tourism. Eco-tourism is similar but is more focussed on environmental impacts and saving the world for future generations.
Sustainable tourism is a place, event or tourist attraction that is sustainable in three main areas, it meets the "Triple Bottom Line". To be sustainable, it must be economically, environmentally and socio-culturally sustainable. Not many tourism ideas and places are, but they can meet the Line partially.

Is tourism in Antarctica sustainable and considerate of the culturally diverse needs of tourism?
No. Tourism is not sustainable in Antarctica, because sustainability implies a cycle. People who tour to Antarctica come on cruise ships, where they sleep and eat. Daily, they leave the cruise ships in zodiacs, to trek upon the continent, and visit penguin colonies, abandoned whaling stations, and other sites. They spend no money there; there are no native peoples or crafts to benefit from tourism. The perfect tourist leaves only footprints, and then only where footprints are allowed.

Who is an ecotourist?
That is almost defined by the people using the word. It should mean that tourism is limited in size and what tourists can do, in order to protect the habitat they are visiting. However, people can use the term to make people think they are being ecologically smart, when it is only a marketing ploy. Pure ecologically sustainable tourism is the maximum number of toursits one can let into a habitat without any ecological damage. From a business standpoint, it is the number of tourists one can allow into a habitat with sustainable repairable damage so that the habitat can be visited by future tourists. The first definition is more green-friendly whereas the second is dollar-friendy.
