Indigenous Renaissance
Travel for Good
Walk through the Andes on cobblestones laid by the Incas! Explore the jungle with native Amazonian tribes! Help Aymara children develop avant-garde theater!
Challenge your expectations about the indigenous people of South America while supporting one of the most innovative non-profits working in Latin America: Shine A Light.
During the thirteen days of the Indigenous Renaissance tour, we will visit the Uchupiamonas people, who have preserved their land and their culture with an innovative eco-lodge in the upland Amazon rainforest. We will explore the pre-Colombian history of the Incas and their ancestors. And we will see the theater of a group of Aymara children and teenagers in La Paz, then help them as they create a television show based on the stories of their lives.
This is a trip unlike any other. Do something good with your vacation.
