The rural community tourism initiative has been developing among the families of our community since 2002. A sustainable form of community tourism with identity and a more human face, the initiative began with the direct participation of indigenous families in the development of a program offering accommodation and food services for the tourists who visit the region. The basic concept behind the proposal is “coexistence,” or to permit a cultural exchange between visitors and residents of the community in addition to the basic amenities of hospitality.
The host families want to show the traveler an authentic way of life that comes from a different vision of the world. The tourist will share in the indigenous culture, enjoy a new environment, experience another way of living and take delight in the nearness of nature and tradition, all with the mark of mutual respect.
