“When you look at the planet’s population, there are very few people that get to travel, and that’s a privilege we have – not a right," Poon Tip told TTG on the eve of The Last Tourist’s UK release on 24 May.

Developed more than six years ago as a short documentary based on G Adventures’ responsible travel ethos, The Last Tourist ended up becoming a much longer piece on how the industry can become a force for good.
