At Quimbaya Latin America, we have always been dedicated to offering unique travel experiences, respecting local cultures and minimizing our environmental impact. Today, we are proud to announce a new milestone in our commitment to more sustainable tourism: the achievement of the TourCert Qualified certification.
TourCert is an international organization specialized in certifying tourism companies committed to sustainable development. The TourCert Qualified label is a recognition awarded to companies that demonstrate a concrete commitment to responsible tourism and engage in a continuous improvement process in terms of sustainability.
To obtain this certification, we followed a rigorous process that included:
This certification is valid until December 2025 and marks the beginning of a process that will lead us to full certification within three years.
Obtaining the TourCert Qualified label is a recognition of our long-standing commitment to more responsible tourism. At Quimbaya Latin America, we have always emphasized immersive travel that respects local populations and is mindful of preserving the ecosystems of the destinations we offer.
With this certification, we are going even further by integrating more sustainable practices into our organization and raising awareness among our partners, guides, and clients about the importance of responsible tourism.
This recognition drives us to continuously improve our processes and offer travel experiences that are increasingly respectful of both people and nature.
By working with Quimbaya Latin America, this certification guarantees that we are doing everything we can to:
✅ Reduce the ecological footprint by minimizing environmental impact in the organization of the tours you offer to your clients.
✅ Collaborate with responsible local providers who share our values of sustainability and respect for communities.
✅ Support the local economy by promoting authentic experiences and exchanges with local populations.
✅ Raise awareness among your travelers about more sustainable travel practices by providing them with practical tips for traveling more responsibly.
Obtaining the TourCert Qualified label is just the beginning. We are committed to continuing our efforts by updating our Improvement Program and documenting our progress with verifiable evidence (documents, photos, concrete initiatives). We will also continue to work hand-in-hand with our local partners to promote practices that are increasingly respectful of the environment and local cultures.
We are excited to share this important milestone with you and look forward to continuing to support you in creating more sustainable, authentic, and enriching experiences for your travelers.
