Eco-Projects
Being
involved in ecotourism means much more than taking people
through the jungle... We do more than watch the flora and
fauna or visit archaeological sites of great value... To
us ecotourism is not a marketing strategy but a statement
about our involvement and objectives... What it means to
us is working for the conservation of the very ecosystems
we visit, protecting the endangered species from irresponsible
human behavior and its effects, as well as supporting and
respecting local cultures in their own development the way
they understand it and not the way western culture may dictate...
We hope to be helping secure the areas we visit for the
sons and daughters of nature to live in...
Ecotourism and Adventure Specialists
is currently supporting hands-on projects where our partners
are contributing to make a difference, however small, in
the destinies of many people we know and work closely with
in rural communities... Our partners are helping preserve
the last Forest Society, the last Cloud Forest- where the
Quetzal Bird lives or the last lagoons where the Scarlet
Macaws nest and feed... They are sharing their cosmic vision
and welcoming those who know and appreciate these ancient
values as a part of their own family!
Our partners are preserving medicinal
plants and want to share their knowledge about the great
healing powers of plants, demonstrating the deep connection
between our well-being and the magic of the natural world!
They are showing they can make a living making an adequate
use of the jungle and its resources and have asked us to
help them commercialize their handicrafts and products...
All of our staff are committed to help rescue the Scarlet
Macaw. A young macaw chick appears on our logo, a symbol
of health, hope and beauty!
