This footprint is irremediable in its passage through biodiversity, making it a threat to the environmental and cultural riches of the world; Therefore, a series of measures have been implemented that seek to protect these resources and at the same time achieve a responsible, conscious and low impact visitor behavior, in order to generate a sustainable visit.

We are aware that tourism will never be totally green or socially responsible completely, since each tourist, to a certain extent, negatively affects the environment. For this reason sustainable and responsible programs are needed more than ever, if we want to maintain the natural, cultural and social environment of people and places.
