Casanare tour in Colombia

Planet

Casanare is an important region for environmental themes for several reasons. Firstly, it is home to the Orinoco River, which is one of the largest rivers in South America and provides important ecosystem services to the region, including supporting biodiversity, regulating water flow, and providing habitat for many species of flora and fauna.

Secondly, the region has a high level of biodiversity, with a large number of species of birds, reptiles, amphibians, and mammals living in the area. This biodiversity is due to the diverse range of ecosystems found in Casanare, including savannas, forests, wetlands, and rivers.

In your 4 days, you will be staying at a natural reserve - Reserva Natural de la Sociedad Civil (RNCS) is a type of natural reserve in Colombia that is managed by private organizations or individuals. These reserves are created to protect and conserve natural areas and their biodiversity while promoting sustainable use and development of natural resources. RNCSs are bridges for people and communities to get involved in conservation efforts and contribute to protecting Colombia's natural heritage.

Our providers in Casanare are committed to minimizing its environmental impact by reducing waste and using eco-friendly products. They also work to protect the natural habitats and wildlife of the area by promoting responsible tourism practices.

Our providers are committed to animal welfare and do not support activities that exploit animals. They offer wildlife observation tours that prioritize the safety and well-being of the animals.

People

The cowboy llanera culture is an essential part of the history and identity of Casanare and the Orinoquia region in Colombia. Cowboys or "llaneros" are skilled horsemen who have worked with cattle for centuries, and their culture is closely linked to the vast grasslands or "llanos" that stretch across the region.

We support local businesses and encourage our travelers to participate in cultural activities that showcase the region's history, music, and cuisine.

We work with local communities to promote economic development and preserve local culture. We prioritize hiring local staff and supporting local businesses and artisans. That way our travelers engage with the local community and will learn mods about their traditions, and support their livelihoods

All the partners with whom we collaborate on our tours, or through our office and internet business, have their base in Colombia.

For all our guests there is always pre-trip information available for each destination. Where possible, we like to ensure that upon arrival they feel comfortable and confident ahead of their Colombian experience. Greeted by the local guide at the airport, who is our representative, they will have explained to them all the details of the tour and be provided with additional local information. For this, our guests are generally very appreciative.
