My Philosophy
My
philosophy is simple. I don't offer any tourist-type tour. Never has a
day with one client been repeated exactly like another. You hire me as
your very own private guide for the day; EXCLUSIVELY, WITHOUT
STRANGERS.
I have found that with no one else distracting your ideal
program, more of your needs are met. As part of the service, I consult
with each customer before embarking on the adventure, assessing your needs
and vision of what your special day might be like.
I tell you to imagine you had your very own guide showing you THE
BEST of the island, and to tell me what that should include for you
to be satisfied. You tell me the kinds of things you like to see and do
that make you happy. Then I suggest the kinds of places and activities
you might enjoy. Your input will help make your day special and memorable.
"So many thanks for such a wonderful, uplifting day. It was a VERY
SPECIAL day for us and we thank you. You are everything and more that we
heard about you!"
L. & W. Shelton, Executive, Coca-Cola Atlanta, GA
At the Heart of Each Open Eye Tour are the Following Goals of Eco-Tourism:
- Conserving our precious natural resources, reusing & recycling
whenever possible
- Holding the indigenous culture in highest esteem, and being sensitive
to regional customs.
- Preserving fragile ecosystems by using more well-established trails &
authorized roads.
- Supporting the local economy by purchasing foodstuffs & handicrafts
directly from homesteads & farms, favoring small & family-run businesses.
- Leaving intact each place as it is found, including living things,
their remains, & artifacts.
- Caring for the safety & well-being of people, plants, & animals.
- Offering healthy, hands-on "local style" activities (like tide pool
exploring, wild fruit & flower gathering, palm frond weaving.)
- Suggesting resources for further study on subjects of interest,
providing continued opportunities for learning.
- Actively contributing to organizations, groups & individuals which
perpetuate the above principles.
