Local non-profit PEACE offers “Real World Home Tours,” a program that's growing in popularity as tourists give glowing feedback of their experiences in local homes and communities.
The Real World Home Tour provides the unique experience of visiting four exclusive homes, from spectacular luxury estates with pristine grounds and gorgeous accommodations, to modest puebla homes.
One puebla home belongs to Libo, a local artisan and member of PEACE program, Manos Unidas por la Mujer (United Hands for Women.) “I found the determination and grace of these women so inspiring, and I left their homes in humbled admiration,” said Andria Burchett, home tour participant. “It’s hard to find a vacation experience like this. Real World Home Tours helped us to respectfully 'unravel' the cultural differences in this beautiful country, and also encouraged a relationship among tourists and the local people of the region.”
