Guidelines for the Responsible Traveler

 

Wildlife and natural habitats should not be disturbed.
Tourism should be a positive influence on local communities.
Tourism should be culturally sensitive.
There should be no commerce in wildlife, wildlife products, or native
plants.
Tourists should leave with a greater understanding and appreciation of nature, conservation and the environment.

Tourism should strengthen conservation efforts and enhance the natural integrity of cultures visited.

We want you to enjoy your stay in Costa Rica, because you are playing an important role in conserving its natural resourses. Everytime you visit a national park, private nature reserve, raft a river, or hike along a beach you are giving Costa Ricans a practical incentive to preserve these areas.

Please make every effort to have a minimal negative impact on the natural and human environment that you encounter and to conserve natural resourses both during your stay in Costa Rica and when you return home.
