How we keep visits respectful.
Every experience should feel valuable to both the visitor and the host community.
Small Groups
We keep groups manageable so conversations remain personal and community spaces are not overwhelmed.
Photography Consent
Guests are asked to seek permission before close-up portraits, filming or photographing private work.
Direct Local Benefit
Host families, guides, artists and artisans receive direct compensation or sales opportunities.
Buy Local, Never Pressure
Purchases are optional. When guests buy, they are encouraged to deal fairly and directly with makers.
Respect Daily Life
Routes and timings may change around farming, family, weather and community responsibilities.
Leave Lightly
Carry waste out, avoid damaging crops and follow guides around water sources and natural areas.
Simple etiquette for visitors
- Dress comfortably and modestly in homes and cultural settings.
- Ask before taking portraits or entering private spaces.
- Listen to your guide when a route or activity changes.
- Do not promise gifts, money or future support directly to children.
- Choose locally made products when you genuinely want to purchase.
