“Ecotourism” refers to travel to conserved natural places, to enjoy and learn in circumstances that reduce the environmental and cultural impact, leaving economic benefits to the community, prioritising, and recovering the cultural values.

Mapajo and San Miguel del Bala are ecotourism projects created by Bolivian indigenous communities, communities that have found in this activity an important development alternative.

The communitarian company "Mapajo Ecoturismo Indigena" belongs and is operated by the communities Mosetenes and Tsimanes of the Quiquibey river. Their philosophy of tourism is based on the respect to the nature and the inherited culture.
