Departure information

This trip can be tailor made throughout the year to suit your requirements

Accessible Tourism overview:

For us it is important to assist and help where we can with travellers that need special assistance. All our trips can be tailor made, allowing us to adjust the trips specifically to the individual. This is also dependant on the budget available.

Limited mobility:

We have already worked with several clients with limited mobility - we have organised for clients to travel via rental cars with private drivers for example. Before the trip we will contact the individual and find out what part of our trip needs to be adapted, this will also allow us to brief the local guides so they can focus on the particular needs of the traveller. Different day excursions can be provided when the activities do not suit the travellers' particular needs.

Wheelchair:

We have worked with several clients that have been wheelchair bound, this has previously involved sorting out suitable travel, such as private taxi transfers, drivers and guides. We can discuss with the traveller beforehand exactly how the trip needs to be adapted. Extra activities can be provided instead if a suggested one isn't suitable for example. Travellers with a wheelchair will need to be accompanied on the trip.

Blind or Limited vision:

Information in braille is not available in Latin American destinations which means all the information will be delivered verbally. We can provide a host to take care of the travellers depending of budget. We have already guided a person with limited vision, so we know how to deal with the challenges. Local guides are trained and can be briefed on the specific needs of each traveller. Programmes can also be adapted for ease of travel. Travellers with severe vision impairments should be accompanied.

Deaf or limited hearing:

All information before the trip starts will be provided in a written format. Lip reading will be essential for understanding the local guides explanations. The traveller will also have to be accompanied by someone who will be able to sign the translations. A special host can be provided, but this can in dependent on budget. While not all our guides are trained in sign language, they have access to computer tablets for communication if necessary. We have guided a deaf person before, so we know the challenges involved.

'Free from' food:

Diet requests are communicated to all local operators involved that are included in the program and it should not be a problem to accommodate most.

LGBT:

We have not encountered any issues directed towards the LGBT community on our trips and believe that the countries that we travel in are welcoming and open to all travellers.

Responsible tourism

As the pioneers of responsible tourism, we screen every trip so you can travel knowing your holiday will help support conservation and local people.

This program, modules and all tailor made itineries are offered by a certified mountain leader with a University degree, trained in eco-awareness and with deep respect for nature and wildlife. The knowledge that we will share, the awe and inspiration that will be felt for the greatness of the Andes mountains and the vastness of the Altiplano we trust shall contribute in people’s lifes to appreciate and support the preservation of our natural reserves. Exploring the remote and most beautiful places in the Andes and Altiplano can only be done by car as regular buses only drive from one place to the other or do not exist on certain routes.

The traditional horseback trekkings which we also offer with local gauchos is one of the purest responsible ways of travel you can imagine but is of course only possible in a very limited area with the time span a traveller usually has. In these itineries long distances have to be covered as this is part of the Andes adventure. We trust that the personal impact and the inspiration that will be generated by these special travels will have a positive effect in people’s lives and decision making with respect to nature. When staying in our estancias and pousadas, or more simple guesthouses, we will always check if the management is taking care of the natural reserves and what can be improved in case this turns out to be necessary.

The Impacts of this Trip

We propose to make one or two visits to social projects for children along our itinery and see in which way we can make a contribution to the local community of the Andean people. Clients can also come forward with one or more social projects they would like to visit. Before the start of our trip some research will have to be done and contacts to be made in order to make this a success of all parties involved, Your guide speaks fluently Spanish so there will be no languange barrier between you, the teachers, children or coordinators involved with the project.

All local operators are small and local owners, meaning that the income remains within the country and creates a real economic contribution to its people and country. Accommodations are chosen by the client according to budget, taste and style, when they are locally owned this will have our preference, when this is not the case we will inform the client with further details so that a well balanced decision can be made.

This operator empowers a womens coffee cooperation and NGO in the Andes of Venezuela. Their vision is to provide solidarity to the entire coffee community in the area, striving to improve the quality of the life of children and families of the coffee communities. With this holiday and all our tailor made travels in Latin America you support local families on your destination of travel and you make it for us possible to support mothers and children in the Andes of Venezuela through this cooperation and NGO. Through their different programs the cooperative aspire to offer training technique in administration, management, accounting, among others and offer scholarships to students and subsidies to primary schools in rural coffee communities, as well as inspire to new forms of community economic organization.
