We were in Assisi for our daughter's wedding and had a free day. We somehow found this business through the internet. I emailed to find out if they had bikes available, and received a prompt, positive reply from the owner, Petra (who speaks great English). They offered to deliver the bikes to our hotel, but we were driving around so decided to go to them. Petra and her husband Paolo could not have been more helpful, kind and patient with us. We decided on their suggestion to rent E-bikes, which were very fun and extended our range a great distance. They gave us written directions for two long rides, which were very clear and detailed. Paolo came to our hotel to retrieve the bikes. These are very knowledgable and honest people. I cannot recommend them highly enough

Ecologico Tours, Umbria

Walking into the nature without haste and by following the own rhythm, admiring breathtaking views, climbing sinuous hills and breathing fresh air, discovering lush forests and flourishing valleys or walking alongside lively streams and observing them ending in deep blue lakes. This is the philosophy of Ecological Tours that since 2000 organizes short trips in bicycle and excursions on greenways among beautiful landscapes which will lead you discovering historic and eternal sites and other natural and artistic beauties in Umbria, Toscana and within the whole Italian and European territory.

The safety level of our tours is checked and verified every year by our collaborators and competent guides licensed by the Region. Each tour (as, for instance, the bike short trips and the hiking’s activities) could be organized as a group tour or an individual one - each one assisted by the telephonic or the frontal assistance of our collaborators, and with the possibility of choosing between different difficulty levels. Ecological Tours is a travel agency that aims to protect the surrounding territory and to encourage a responsible tourism. Our agency supports the non-profit association Trees For All and in particular its project in the Philippines for the restocking of woods and the consequent reduction of the Earth pollution’s level and the no-profit organization World Bicycle Relief which works in poor and disadvantage country with the purpose of distributing bikes and transforming them in sources of life and progress. In 2011, Ecological Tours won the Premio Turismo Cultura awarded by the Unesco, a price assigned to travel operators and agencies that organize and promote trips in destinations recognized by the UNESCO as a World Heritage Site.  Indeed, besides to the naturalistic trips and excursions, Ecoligical Tour offers tours and visits in historical villages and cities that own artistic architectural heritage of rare value, where it is still possible to listen and to have conversations with the locals in order to learn about histories and traditions, or simply to take a break for tasting typical delicacies and wines made by local producers, authentic “sources” of the true gastronomic taste!

In addition, we promote events with the aim of creating synergy between people and territory as we are convinced that what is surrounding us today is our present but yet the future for the next generations and preserving it and taking care of it, it really means living in a better world.

Highlights of Costa Rica Tour

Highlights of Costa Rica

Our group of six enjoyed the trip. We were happy to see the monkeys, sloths, and different insects, but were disappointed that we only saw one toucan and one parrot. Our guide, Juan Carlos, was very knowledgeable and he, along with our great driver, Gustavo, tried very hard for find animals for us. The itinerary changed and because we did not know when we would be at different sites we could not make advanced reservations for things like parasailing or white water rafting which were listed as optional activities that we could book on our own. We found your website very frustrating since we had to enter the same information in numerous times. The hotels and buffets were okay, nothing special. We are not sure we would book with this company again.

Home stay accommodation was excellent and we saw a wide range of the cuisine that the region has to offer. The roads and the riding experience was something else altogether, from the chaos of weaving through Hanoi traffic to narrow and quiet village tracks. Every day was different and exciting.

Nature's Secret Sri Lanka - 21 Days

My gratitude for the wonderful round-trip experience my family and I had in Sri Lanka. Our tour guide was amazing, and we were fortunate to have him with us. He was knowledgeable, and he provided us with insightful information about the places we visited. He was also very responsive to our questions and needs. The tour was well-organized, and the communication between your agency and us before the trip started was excellent. We appreciated the effort put in to make sure that everything went smoothly. We had the opportunity to see great nature (plants and animals), different religions and cultures, and also had time to relax by the beach. The program was well-balanced; allowing us to enjoy everything Sri Lanka has to offer. The hotels we stayed in were upper-class, and the staff was very friendly and helpful. They made us feel comfortable and welcome, which added to the overall enjoyment of our trip.Once again, thank you for providing us with a memorable experience, and we look forward to booking future trips with your agency

What our clients say about us

Dear Petra and Paulo, Just a short note to thank you for organizing such a wonderful cycling tour for us. It was great – the routes, the e bicycles, the hotels, etc. We appreciated that you fixed the issues we had with the bikes right away. We will send you some comments when we return home We just saw Paulo. Mille Grazie!

Dear Petra and Paolo Thank you so much for all your help and support during our trip to Umbria. You were extremely responsive and always there for us. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend your tours. It was great meeting both of you and we will definitely look at booking with you for our future trips. All the best

Dear Petra: Just a quick note to say thank you (dank u)!! Amy and I had a fantastic time on our short trip to Umbria. The bikes worked perfectly, the hotels were VERY comfortable, and the cooking class was very fun! Have a good rest of the year and wish you continued success. Sincerely,

I speak on behalf of the four of us that we enjoyed the trip immensely. Everything was right: the organization was perfect, the hospitality of the people, the beauty of nature and culture, the feast of delicious dishes, walking through varied landscapes with beautiful views. We look back on a wonderful week Greetings José

Hello Petra We have now returned from our holiday in Italy. Most of our time was taken on your walks in Umbria & Emilia Romagna. What a wonderful time we had! Everything worked out well. The accommodation, the beautiful countryside we walked through & those fabulous meals!! Such friendly people, we met too. Thank you for your assistance & advice. A holiday we will not forget!!! Regards Joan & John

Thank you so much for arranging our walking tour in Umbria. It was a wonderful walk and and your service was excellent all along.

Thank you (and Paulo) and best regards,

Gideon & Noga Vancouver, Canada.

We had a great time, it was the perfect level of cycling to get our boys into the idea of vacationing by bike again in the future. We also were lucky enough to be in Torgiano the night of a big food and wine festival, which was really fun to experience. Thank you again for arranging such a wonderful vacation for us!

We returned home from Italy about two weeks ago and I felt it would be amiss of me not to touch base with you and thank you for your assistance in arranging the Medieval villages walk in Umbria. We spent a month in Italy and the walk was in our first week of being in the country. Friends keep asking us, what was the highlight and we keep saying that whilst it was all fantastic, we absolutely loved the simplicity of the walk and our favourite accommodation of the entire trip was definitely Assisi (please pass this onto them). It was such a lovely setting, relaxed and the staff were just so lovely and helpful and the place was so clean and the pool just made it extra relaxing, so Im so glad we stayed extra nights before the walk. All of the accommodation was excellent, but Assisi did feel special. The walk itself was fabulous. The instructions were good and the GPS App worked really well except for in one section when it indicated that we were off track by quite a bit but we stuck to the written instructions and that got us through. 

So many thanks from Mat and myself and it was lovely to meet you in Assis and we appreciate the wonderful service and support you provided.

CARIBBEAN SIDE

Best time to visit costa rica.

Anytime is a good time but take into account that from December to April is our dry season o summer, but remember that this is our busiest time of the year. In the Caribbean side, the dry season is from July to October, keep in mind Costa Rica is a tropical country rain showers any time of the year, and it is cooler in the mountains than in the lowlands. Between May to November is our “green season”. The forest especially in the Pacific side changes a lot from dry to a more lush green forest due rain. We encourage you to visit between May to July, few rain showers and prices are lower and less people.

Want to fill your next trip to Mexico with tours and activities you can feel good about?

Ecotourism in Mexico is booming, and this list of socially responsible and sustainability-focused tour companies is the perfect place to start planning your trip.

Not only will you know that your money is supporting a plethora of good local causes and local families directly, but also that your travels will leave a positive footprint- something that hasn’t always been at the forefront of tourism in the past. 

A Few Best Practices and Responsible Travel Tips

Before we look at some of the best responsible tours in Mexico, here are a few quick tips on how to be a more responsible traveler no matter where you go. 

  • Consider carbon offsetting your flight, or book with an airline that will carbon offset on your behalf
  • Choose sustainable accommodation such as an eco-resort, or search for hotels with good sustainability initiatives such as plastic-free policies, recycling programs, low-energy appliances, etc. 
  • Consider animal welfare before booking tours/activities that involve animal interaction or entertainment
  • Use reef-safe sunscreen
  • Support local businesses over big chains
  • Don’t take photos of locals without their expressed consent, and even then, only if you have established a connection with them. The locals are not scenery! 
  • Be respectful of local culture and customs. 
  • Search for tour companies with social/environmental impact initiatives (such as the ones on this list!) 
  • And last but certainly not least, take time to research how to travel more ethically.

Eco tours in Mexico

Eco colors tours.

What makes Eco Colors Tours a responsible choice? 

  • Small-group, limited travel to minimize the impact on natural areas
  • Collaborations with WWF, SEMERNAT, Adventure Travel association, Ecotourism Society, and The Smithsonian School to create environmental protection plans
  • Awareness campaigns about the ecosystems of Mexico and how to help rehabilitate them

A few of their best tours: 

snorkeling with a whale shark

Whale Sharks Cancun Tour

  • Length: 5-8 hours
  • Cost: $165 pp.

I think we’ve all put snorkeling with the whale sharks tour on our travel bucket list for Mexico at one point or another, but when it comes to wild animal interactions and enjoying protected ecosystems, it’s of the utmost importance to choose an ethical tour company.

Thankfully, Eco Colors has one of the best whale shark tours around! Transportation, lunch, beverages, and snorkeling equipment are all included, and a percentage of your tour fee goes towards educational programs for children on the island of Isla Mujeres. 

Temazcal Ceremony in Cancun 

  • Cost: $745 per couple.

This tour presents an opportunity to interact with the locals in a genuine and responsible way and participate in community-led cultural learning, but this day-long adventure also includes some quintessential Mexican experiences all under one tour umbrella. 

You’ll learn about the construction of a traditional Mayan home, learn to make tortillas as they were made thousands of years ago, visit the circle of sea snails and enter a Temazcal with a local shaman.

At the end of the day, you’ll be treated to a visit to a secret cenote for a swim and a yummy gourmet dinner. 

temazcal ceremony

Univers Maya Yucatan 

What makes Univers Maya Yucatan a responsible choice? 

  • “English for All” program supports free English language classes for local children
  • Environmentally friendly approach to tourism

El Cielo and Cozumel 

  • Length: Half-day
  • Cost: $70 pp.

Here’s an incredible aquatic destination in Mexico you may not have heard of yet. First, you’ll head to the oasis free-diving sites, Palancar and Columbia, at the Cozumel Reef Marine National Park.

This reserve still has a flourishing, colorful reef teeming with tropical species, but this is one of the least impressive stops of the day.

Next, you’ll head to El Cielo Reserve, which is a shallow diving site that’s home to thousands of giant starfish.

Finally, you’ll end your day with a visit to El Cielito, which is an ocean pool/sand bar known for being one of the best places to view rays. 

ecologico tours

Sian Kaan Boat Safari

  • Length: Full Day
  • Cost: $160 pp. 

Visit the infamous UNESCO Sian Kaan reserve with a company willing to go the extra mile. You’ll start off perusing the mangroves in search of manatees and crocodiles. Then, after a quick break for a buffet lunch, you’ll head out into the shallow seas for some dolphin and turtle watching.  

Journey Mexico  

What makes Journey Mexico a responsible choice? 

  • Works closely with local communities to support their businesses and encourage participation in cultural tourism in Mexico in a responsible way
  • Financial contributions to several local environmental non-profits
  • Works with the Global Sustainable Tourism Council to promote tourism as a catalyst for sustainable development.

Axolotls and Chinapas in Xochimilco

  • Length: 6 hours
  • Cost: Varies

My goodness, this is a Mexico City experience like nothing you’ve ever dreamed of. First thing in the morning, you’ll board a colorful gondola and cruise down the floating gardens of Xochimilco, birdwatching and learning all about the area’s unique history.

The best part of this tour? You’ll have the rare opportunity to learn about the conservation of the internet-famous Axolotls and potentially see one of these endangered beauties in their natural habitat. You’ll also be treated to a fabulous lunch made from produce grown right in the floating gardens.

Hammocks Artisan’s Home Workshop in Tixkokob

Chances are, if you’ve been to Mexico before, you’ve seen the iconic hand-woven hammocks that grace the walls of every souvenir shop and thought about the possibility of bringing one home. This is actually one of the largest income generators for local artisans and families.

With this tour, you can learn the incredible techniques that go into creating these hammocks while visiting a family workshop, and if you’d like, you can even try your own hand at weaving!

Of course, in the end, you’ll have the option to bring home one of these masterpieces straight from the source and with an incredible travel story behind it.

What makes Maya Ka’an a responsible choice?

Kayaking in the Siijil Noh Ha Lagoon

On this tour, you’ll visit the criminally underrated Ejidal Reserve and spend the day enjoying the natural areas, both on dry land and in the water. You’ll have the opportunity to hike and search for wildlife, kayak the still lake, and hop on in for an afternoon swim. You’ll also be able to meander the onsite eco-museum and learn about the history and conservation needs in the area.

You can also opt to take this cruise at breakfast time to watch the sunrise, but the nighttime experience is so extraordinary that it’s the inspiration source of the name for this tour. “Ixchel” translates to the moon goddess. 

lora holding baby sea turtle puerto escondido

What makes Vive Mar a responsible choice? 

  • Leader in the conservation of sea turtles and birds in Mexico
  • Gives back to the community with environmental education

One of the most remarkable wildlife connections you can have is releasing baby sea turtles into the wild. With Vive Mar , you can partake in this experience in Puerto Escondido, one of Mexico’s most popular beach towns.

During the turtle nesting season, they invite visitors to come and partake in a sea turtle release. You’ll head out at sunset and release a turtle into the ocean, which instinctively know to go towards the sea. If you’re living in Mexico, you can also volunteer with them.

  • Pioneers of Ecotourism in Mexico Oceanic Society Films to build awareness about ocean conservation efforts

Ever dreamed of living on a ranch or starring in a cowboy movie? Now’s your chance to make that dream a reality.

On this tour, you’ll take a 2-3 hour mule ride through the Sierra, looking over the deserts and the sea in the distance until you make your way to the Gaspereno Ranch. Once you’ve arrived, chef Ivan will prepare you a stunning farm-to-table meal.

Wildlife Connections

wild dolphins

What makes wildlife connections a responsible choice?

  • First company in Mexico to work with free wild dolphins
  • Guides are professional biologists with master’s degrees in Marine Ecology
  • Contribute to the research of marine conservation in Mexico

Swimming with free wild dolphins

There are many places in Puerto Vallarta that advertise swimming with dolphins, but as a responsible traveler, you should avoid supporting these.

Instead, try this tour with wildlife connections , where you’ll have the chance to swim with dolphins in the wild. You’ll head out on the boat with marine biologists who use a hydrophone to listen for dolphin communication.

Depending on their mood, you have a good chance of swimming with them! From December to March, you can also see humpback whales, giant mantas, marine turtles, and if you’re lucky – orcas!

Whale watching

Puerto Vallarta is one of the best places to go whale watching in Mexico! Every winter, thousands of humpback whales migrate to the Bay of Banderas.

While there are many whale-watching tours to choose from , the best ethical choice is with wildlife connections. You’ll be in the company of a biologist, participating in a research project that helps to protect them.

It’s great to see ecotourism in Mexico growing every year. I hope this post could inspire you to check out some of these eco tours in Mexico on your next trip!

Ecotourism World

10 Razones para hacer un Eco Tour

La palabra Ecología se define como “Las relaciones entre el aire, la tierra, el agua, los animales, las plantas, etc., generalmente de un área en particular, o el estudio científico de ello”. ( Diccionario de Cambridge ) ‘Ecología, como el estado de vida y la estructura del medio ambiente. Combinar la ecología y el turismo de una manera que no dañe el medio ambiente y permita al viajero aprender sobre el medio ambiente es el acto del ecoturismo.

Al observar y experimentar la naturaleza, podemos aprender sobre sus funciones y mecanismos. En los viajes ecológicos que realizan las actividades que protegen la vida silvestre y el medio ambiente natural, y preservan los sitios arqueológicos y las culturas indígenas, tenemos la oportunidad de participar activamente en los esfuerzos de preservación.

Hay tres pilares principales del concepto de ecoturismo para el turismo sostenible: la conservación de la naturaleza y la cultura, el retorno económico a las comunidades locales y las experiencias de aprendizaje de los viajeros. Un eco tour es un recorrido que convierte estas experiencias en las acciones.

1.Contribuir a la protección del medio ambiente a través de eco tours

Los eco tours en sí incluyen las actividades destinadas a la protección del medio ambiente (como plantar árboles y mantener senderos, etc.). Muchos recorridos dirigen todo o una parte de los beneficios económicos de eco tours a los esfuerzos de protección ambiental. Las contribuciones indirectas a la protección del medio ambiente también existen en forma de las tarifas de admisión a los parques nacionales y las reservas naturales, que se utilizan para mantener, proteger, mejorar y preservar el medio ambiente en el área protegida.

2. Contribuir a la preservación cultural a través del ecoturismo

Las visitas a los sitios arqueológicos, las tarifas de admisión a los museos y los recorridos culturales contribuyen a la preservación cultural. La cultura puede ser un tema delicado. Los problemas relacionados con las indígenas, como el caso aborigen de turistas que escalan la Roca de Ayers, un sitio sagrado para los aborígenes, o la cultura nórdica sámi en relación con las actividades turísticas. A veces esto puede ser un reto, porque algunas empresas de turismo no lo saben bien sobre los trajes tradicionales, las ceremonias tradicionales y los utilizan comercialmente o no se comunican bien con las indígenas. Es por eso, se recomienda considerar no solo el recorrido en sí, sino también el hecho de que la cultura se comunicó adecuadamente en la forma deseada por las indígenas y considerar las actividades culturales de ellos. Es importante verificar las políticas de la agencia de viaje en este sentido.

3. Prevenir la influencia negativa al medio ambiente y a la cultura al conocer y practicar los principios del ecoturismo

Ser consciente, por parte de los viajeros, puede ayudar a prevenir el daño ambiental y cultural. Algunos ejemplos de conciencia son: no tirar la basura, usar algún protector solar que no contiene la química toxica para los arrecifes de coral, no acercarse o tocar animales, no dar artículos irrazonables a los niños locales, reservar vuelos directos, viajar a pie / bicicleta o usar el transporte eléctrico para reducir las emisiones. Hay muchas cosas de las que tenemos control, que podemos marcar la diferencia.

4. Contribuir a las comunidades locales a través de eco tours

Una cosa a la que los viajeros deben prestar atención es si el eco tour utiliza los servicios de las empresas y los alojamientos locales. Sostenibilidad y ecoturismo implican beneficiar a la comunidad local. Cuando tus pagos se dirigen a los guías locales de turismo / los guardaparques y los eco-lodges, son los ingresos y el empleo de los residentes locales.

5. Puedes comer las comidas deliciosas con los ingredientes locales en el tour ecológico

“Producción local para consumo local” es una buena frase para recordar y simplemente significa consumir localmente los productos producidos localmente. Tanto el reciduo de alimentos como las emisiones de CO2 se pueden reducir consumiendo solo lo que se necesita y se obtienen localmente. Además de esto, se puede disfrutar de deliciosas comidas hechas con los ingredientes cultivados localmente, ¡y tal vez incluso descubrir un nuevo ingrediente que nunca antes habías probado!

ecologico tours

6. Puedes aprender más sobre los locales a través de eco tours

Cuando estás en un ecoturismo, hay una alta probabilidad de que visites un parque nacional o una reserva natural con un guía local, como un guardabosques. Los guardabosques son expertos en la cultura local y la naturaleza. Sin duda, le contarán mucho sobre los locales, la naturaleza, la flora y la fauna de la zona. Un día de aprendizaje será de mucho mayor valor para ti, que si fueras ahí por tu cuenta y estos cuentos no se contaran.

7. Se puede crecer a través de la experiencia ecoturística

Participar en un eco tour crea una conciencia sobre el medio ambiente. Y esta experiencia será una oportunidad de experimentar los pensamientos profundos sobre varios temas, como los problemas ambientales, los problemas socio-económicos-políticos locales dentro de la comunidad y la vida de así mismo objetivamente. A través de esa conciencia, se puede notar su propio crecimiento.

8. Educar a los niños a través de eco-tours

Las familias con niños pueden beneficiarse de los eco tours. Como los niños están más inclinados a sumergirse en su entorno y absorber la información más que la mayoría de los adultos, la experiencia del ecoturismo es una excelente fuente de información para ellos. Aprender a interactuar con el medio ambiente desde la infancia es valioso. Tómate el tiempo para discutir el significado y la importancia de las protecciones ambientales con tus hijos y las acciones que se pueden tomar en la vida diaria.

9. Influir en otros revisando eco tours

No necesitas 1 millón de seguidores en Instagram para ser un influencer. ¡Tus pensamientos y opiniones son importantes! Muchas personas investigan en Internet sobre los destinos elegidos antes de organizar el viaje. Al compartir stus experiencias positivas online, así como al chatear con tus amigos, puedes influir positivamente en los demás. A largo plazo, cuanto mayor sea el número de personas que participan en eco tours, mayor será la demanda. A medida que la industria del turismo satisface la gran demanda, esto podría ayudar a la transición de la industria del turismo a una entidad más ecológica.

10. Después de hacer cosas buenas por la tierra en el ecoturismo, ¡se siente bien!

Se siente bien estar en un viaje ecológico. ¡La satisfacción que viene al tomar decisiones amigables con el planeta es buena!

Las personas a veces piensan que sus acciones individuales no tienen tantos impactos sobre el tema más grande. Sin embargo, se debe recordarse que estas acciones se acumulan. Muchas acciones pequeñas, hacen impactos más grandes. A menudo ni siquiera nos damos cuenta del impacto que nuestras selecciones diarias tienen en general. Hay 1.4 billones de turistas internacionales por un año. Piensa en el impacto que tendrá si incluso la mitad de ellos toman decisiones turísticas pequeñas y más conscientes del medio ambiente. ”Muchos pocos hacen un mucho”. lo que significa es, aunque sea algo pequeño, cuando se acumule, el impacto será mayor.

Una cosa para tener en cuenta es que a pesar del nombre Eco Tour, existen tours regulares que no son realmente eco tours. Desafortunadamente, algunos operadores de turismo “lavan verde” o “ecoblanqueo” sus opciones para atraer al mercado sostenible. Por lo general, estos son solo un recorrido que se ve bien e incluye el nombre “eco”. Para evitar estas tácticas de lavado verde y tomar decisiones informadas, estas son las 3 cosas que lo convertirán en un ecoturismo:

• Conservación de la naturaleza y la cultura

• Retorno económico a las comunidades locales

• Experiencia de aprendizaje para los viajeros

Es muy importante verificar el contenido y la motivación de los recorridos o tours, y hacer preguntas si la información no está disponible en la página web. Si no estás seguro, puedes ir a una organización, una empresa que tengan el certificado global de ecoturismo o viaje sostenible.
