Abstract: Abstract Ecotourism embraces the principles of sustainable tourism, concerning the economic, social and environmental impacts of tourism. The authors support the view that these principles must be continually audited and form the most important tools (regarding ICTs), for ecotourism. Therefore, a range of the academic reports were reviewed in order to derive the crucial information and to have a better overview of ICT-based tools/applications in all the dimensions of ecotourism. The results of the study in this conceptual paper reveal that the key ICT-based tools/applications for ecotourism recorded could be important tools to regulate the ecotourism development according to the each time needs in a particular area.
