Our commitment with
SUSTAINABILITY
Colombia is our home and that’s also why our philosophy involves a strong commitment with its sustainability.
Our principles are directed towards respect for the environment and the local communities
Whenever possible, Chaska Tours work with local suppliers involving the visited communities in its activities, seeking to respect and preserve their customs and traditions through a responsible tourism. We constantly implement actions to give and improve an efficient and clean use of the natural resources minimizing the negative impact of our activities on the environment. Through community-based tourism we want to engage Colombia’s fewer known regions, contributing to produce an additional income for them and looking for the preservation of their natural and social environment. To achieve continuous improvement of the processes, we continuously undertake reviews of internal business processes, respecting human and labor rights.
In this way, we have achieved to get national and international certifications as the Tour Cert seal. We also seek to cooperate and encourage sustainable tourism industry in Colombia, reason why we are founder members of ACOTUR, the Colombian Association of Responsible Tourism and SerConatural, an initiative to protect and encourage nature tourism in the country. We are also members of the Adventure Travel Trade Association, an international organization that seek for transforming people and places through adventure travel.
