ABOUT US

COYOTE AVENTURAS

Coyote Aventuras is an ecologically and socially conscious enterprise that has been leading regenerative travel experiences since 2015.  We have all the necessary permits to legally operate outdoor adventures, expeditions, retreats, tours, transportation and large-scale events. 

At Coyote we believe that immersive travel has the power to deeply enrich our lives.  Socially conscious travel builds intercultural bridges that allow us to recognize the common threads uniting all of humanity.  We inspire travelers to face the challenges of mind, body and spirit while stepping out of their comfort zone to learn about distinct cultures.  Coyote aspires to create transformational adventures that incite personal growth while implementing a business model meticulously designed to generate economic resources in remote communities often forgotten by traditional tourism agencies and local governments. 

THE COYOTE SPIRIT

Coyote, which derives from the náhuatl word,coyotl, has long formed a part of the pantheon of Mesoamerican deities in México.  The huehuecóyotl (wise coyote) was revered by the Aztecs representing an astute, tenacious and lively spirit. Our Coyote team is committed to spreading values of freedom, solidarity, gender equality, sustainability, community, creativity and innovation.  These core values drive our everyday actions as we strive to offer travelers high quality experiences that build strong connections to community and our shared territory.

The collective coyote spirit seeks out opportunities to challenge ourselves in new terrains, provoking personal growth and widening our perspectives on the world.  Each trip up into the mountains inspires us and reminds us to be humble.  Our values continue to evolve as we are influenced by the indigenous communities that surround us who share their profound knowledge of the territory.  We’re honored to share this land with a plurality of indigenous cultures and multicultural visitors, building bridges through regenerative travel.

Experience a new side of responsible tourism that supports communal economies, environmental stewardship and a spiritual connection with the land.

7 principles leave no trace

1) Plan ahead and prepare

Know the regulations and special concerns for the area you´ll visit. Prepare for extreme weather, hazards and emergencies. Schedule your trip to avoid times of high use. Visit in small groups when possible. Consider splitting larger groups into smaller groups. Use a map or GPS

2) Travel and camp
on durable surfaces

Durable surfaces are maintained trails and designated campsites. Protect reparain areas by camping at least 200 feet from lakes and streems. Good campsites are found, not made. Altering a site is not necessary. Concentrate use on existing trails and campsites. Walk single file in the middle of the trail. Keep campsites small. Focus activity in areas where vegetation is absent. In pristine areas disperse use to prevent the creation of campsites and trails.

3) Dispose of waste properly

Don´t leave any type of garbage. Pack it in, pack it out. Utilize toilet facilities whenever possible. Otherwise deposit solid human waste in catholes dug 6 to 8 inches deep, at least 200 feet from water, camp and trails. Cover and disguise the cathole when finished . To wash yourself or your dishes, carry water 200 feet away from streams or lakes, and use small amounts of biodegradable soap.

4) Leave what you find

Durable surfaces are maintained trails and designated campsites. Protect reparain areas by camping at least 200 feet from lakes and streems. Good campsites are found, not made. Altering a site is not necessary. Concentrate use on existing trails and campsites. Walk single file in the middle of the trail. Keep campsites small. Focus activity in areas where vegetation is absent. In pristine areas disperse use to prevent the creation of campsites and trails.

5) Respect Wildlife

Observe wildlife from a distance. Do not follow or approach them. Never feed animals. Feeding wildlife damages their healt, alters natural behaviors. Control pets at all times, or leave them at home. Avoid wildlife during sensitive times: mating, nesting, raising young, or winter.

6) Minimize Campfire impacts

Avoid the use of campfire. Use a lightweight stove for cooking. If a campfire is necessary, keep fire small. Only use down and dead wood from the ground that can be broken by hand. Burn all wood and coals to ash, put out campfires completely , then scatter cool ashes.

7) Be considerate of
other visitors

Respect other visitors and protect the quality of their experience. Ask permission and don´t enter places without authorization. Avoid noises and loud voices. In crowded places, don´t stay longer than necessary so that others can also enjoy themselves.

THESE ARE
OUR principles of respect

We invite you to experience tourism in a different way, more responsible with our nature, that supports communal economies, environmental stewardship and a spiritual connection with the land.
