DEAR READER:
Tourism is made for enjoying! Millions of people travel around the world to discover new places, new cultures and to gather
experiences that will keep in their memories for the rest of their lives. However, as with every human action, tourism generates
an impact that must be controlled to avoid any negative effect or deterioration of the destinations offer.
In this edition of Ultimate Journeys- Travel in Peru we would like to guide you through sustainable tourism, which searches for the
balance between passenger satisfaction and environmental care. Our responsibility is not only towards nature, but also the
cultural heritage and the communities therein.
If you are looking to create a trip with positive impact in our destination, we suggest eco-friendly activities which strive to be
agents of change within the sector. Likewise, we will explain more about LimaTours and its commitment to Peru, which is
reflected in the management of our resources and the importance given to the enterprise´s social responsibility.
Get to know more of LimaTours Foundation, our NGO that looks after social responsibility projects. Read about its communitybased
tourism in the village of Huilloc, as well as of the rollout of Plan Wallata, a project for tourism development promoted by
Turismo Cuida Association. In this project, LimaTours Foundation is a founding member, and you may also become a sponsor.
Peru´s rich resources serve as a mean to progress for the country and its people. We must protect it and share it responsibly
with the rest of the world for many years to come.
Happy reading and learning!
