The Green Guide for the Responsible Traveler

A few months ago Ah Cacao mass-printed a "Green Guide for the Responsible Traveler" created by our friends at Mexiconservación. Finally we had the idea of creating PDF versions and posting them to the website for the world to enjoy (without cutting down any trees):

The Green Guide for the Responsible Traveler

El Guía Verde para el Viajero Responsable (in Spanish)

For more information about conservation in the Riviera Maya, be sure to visit Mexiconservación's website, and consider making a donation to help protect the natural "paradise" that attracts so many visitors every year.

Article in Northwest Airlines In-flight magazine

Just got a call from a someone in NWA wanting to confirm Ah Cacao's details for an article for their in-flight magazine. We're becoming famous! Will have to look out for the article on their website: http://www.nwaworldtraveler.com

Looks like there are lots of countries that could eat more chocolate...
