There is still summer, and many people booked for September that trip that gives them the opportunity to experience new cultures and traditions contributing their bit. There from solidarity routes to Latin America cultural immersions. It can be the experience of a lifetime with ecotourism.

The solidarity tourism promotes a way of traveling more committed, ecological, spiritual even, where travelers not only know the attractions of the destinations chosen, but have the ability to collaborate with the development of the local people, diving into the situation the country, to meet its people. One option that is continually gaining more followers.

Many agencies and NGOs in Latin America routes proposed in which places of interest to visit, enjoy and learn about the historical heritage and development cooperation projects in which to participate in some way. In general it is not volunteer trips, but awareness.

The so-called eco-responsible tourism also allows communities to achieve their development through this income, while helping to maintain the species of flora and fauna, like the Amazon where there are numerous local programs to progress in harmony and balance with nature.

Costa Rica, Peru, Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela still contain pristine places to lose yourself. These countries are in the dry season, which means less rain. So it is a good time to meet.

Currently the promoters of tourism in the region are interested in attracting a specific type of tourist, who is called tourist special interest, those looking for sports such as skiing, rafting, etc, and that are more oriented by the advice of friends to say the sites to visit more than advertisements for travel agencies. Looking visit cities or places where there were Hispanic cultures, mountain climbing, try exotic foods and pay to learn to dance salsa, merengue, samba and tango.

Colombia has all environmental media and to offer a wide geographic range of tourist segment allowing tourists clearly, initiating a more aggressive positioning country brand and specializing supply. Vallenato music is a great way to start selling tourist attractions of the region, as it is doing at this time in Argentina, likewise with cumbia whose music is internationally known, also coffee is a great way to attract tourists to coffee farms.

The main tourist circuit is the circuit of southern Peru, which includes cities like; Ica, Nazca, Paracas, Arequipa, Colca Canyon, Puno, Cusco and Puerto Maldonado, with large attractive architectural, cultural and natural. This circuit has now been extended to the jungle region of Madre de Dios, where Manu National Park is an inescapable point of ecotourism. The second most important route is the Huaylas in the Ancash region, home of adventure tourism (Huascaran National Park) and the main point of reference for Andean cuisine.
