Sustainability and Social Responsibility at IL VIAGGIO TRAVEL

At IL VIAGGIO TRAVEL, we believe that tourism must be a force for good — for the environment, for local communities, and for future generations. That’s why we are proudly committed to sustainable tourism practices that support Costa Rica’s development while preserving its natural and cultural wealth.

CST – Certification for Sustainable Tourism

To promote sustainable development, the Costa Rican Tourism Institute (ICT) created the Certification for Sustainable Tourism (CST), a program that encourages tourism businesses to use natural and cultural resources responsibly, support community well-being, and ensure long-term economic success.

The CST turns sustainability into practical actions and competitive advantages. Companies are evaluated based on their impact, and ranked into two levels: Basic and Elite.
IL VIAGGIO TRAVEL is proud to be certified at the Elite Level, which recognizes our long-term commitment and continuous improvement in sustainability management according to the ICT Standard 2.0.

DONATAPA Environmental Project

Turning Plastic into Purpose

We are proud members of DONATAPA, a national environmental and social initiative where anyone can participate by donating type 2, 4, and 5 plastic. This plastic is transformed into plastic wood, which is then used to build functional and durable items like benches, tables, garbage bins, and more.

The flagship goal of DONATAPA is to create accessible beaches across Costa Rica by building retractable walkways made from plastic wood. These walkways are designed to provide access for people with disabilities, reduced mobility, and senior citizens, allowing everyone to enjoy the beach with dignity and freedom.

Social & Cultural Impact

Tourism for Everyone

At IL VIAGGIO TRAVEL, we believe tourism should be inclusive, and for that reason, we have specialized in creating travel experiences for people with disabilities. We have personally selected accessible suppliers, tours, and national parks, and we work closely with providers to raise awareness and expand their capacity to serve all travelers.

We are also founding members of the Costa Rican Accessible Tourism Network, which trains and certifies businesses to meet accessibility standards and promote inclusion throughout the industry.
