Corporate Social Responsibility
In 2008, Careli Tours reevaluated its community outreach efforts to ensure they aligned with the company’s goals, especially in education and conservation. Collaborating with environmentalist Dr. Incer Barquero's NGO, Fondo Natura, and supported by Maria Isabel Canton, the general manager of Hotel Plaza Colon, Careli launched the Eco-Escuela project. The initiative, which began in 2009, provided year-round lessons on environmental conservation to students at the Pedro Joaquin Chamorro School near Lake Nicaragua. After two years of sponsorship, the program continued to thrive. In 2013, Eco-Escuela expanded to the larger Carlos A. Bravos Elementary School in Granada, impacting 1,000 students and 50 teachers.
Sustainability
Careli Tours is committed to the conservation of Nicaragua’s vital ecosystems and wildlife, as well as cultural preservation and community development. Further, they are proactively committed to doing business with a clear focus on sustainability and assure that the services provided to customers are backed up by a solidly sustainable process to prevent environmental damage and honor social responsibility principles. Careli lives up to the expectations to operate in a sustainably responsible way.
In May 2007, Careli Tours signed an agreement with Rainforest Alliance, prepared under their strict guidelines, to advance and improve environmental, economic, and socio-cultural business practices in the Nicaraguan tourism industry.
In December 2010, Rainforest Alliance completed its evaluation of more than 400 items on the list of sustainable points for operations. Careli’s approval score was 89%. In July 2015, Careli became fully certified by Rainforest Alliance!
The trip might have been the absolute best of our lifetime (thus far). We particularly want to commend our guide Peter in the Guilin area-he was so incredibly attentive, energetic, enthusiastic-and absolutely dedicated to ensuring that our meals were 100% vegetarian.

We have used AL for decades now to plan trips. Kassandra has been with us from the start and has never disappointed. She knows our family and our quirks and is always willing to fit the trip to us. This time we made her work for the booking because of family member schedules. It has all come together for a great Christmas gift for many families.
