One of the greatest experiences I have ever had. A completely unique journey to some wondrous ecovillage projects, full of inspirational humans. To share the tours with others with similar visions was enriching and a real privilige. I left feeling fulfilled and educated.

It is an experience worth paying for. You get to know places and people who are on the real hands on effort for bringing change and make local ecosystems more resilient.

Ecovillage Tours has put something really special together. The amount of research and care they have put into this trip is impressive in and of itself and have helped facilitate meaningful connections both within the tour group and with the communities hosting us. This eye opening experience has the potential to change your life by exploring more unique paradigms.

I joined the Costa Rica Ecovillage Tour hoping to visit communities I otherwise could not have. I did that but I also met so many wonderful people. I don't know anywhere else I could go on a vacation and learn so much and grow in so many ways.

I had an amazing time on the tour! It gave me an opportunity to experience things that I could have never done on my own. We were able to see so many sides of Slovenia and so many unique villages. The guides, my tourmates, and the people who opened up their ecovillages to us, were all so friendly and welcoming. It was more than I could have imagined, and I am so grateful to have been a part of this trip!

The Ecovillage Tour in Slovenia in 2023 was a magical experience. Our hosts at our main base at Sunny Hill Community were magnificent, and our guides were excellent at sharing their knowledge and experiences. The group added to the great time I had. And Slovenia is truly a picturesque country, and we were welcomed by all of our project hosts in such a warm and open way. I could do nothing but recommend this tour!

This was a one-of-a-kind experience. We were able to visit communities and see parts of Slovenia that would never be possible on a regular vacation. Our guides provided an incredible immersion into both Slovenia and ecovillage culture, and it really changed my perspective on how I want to travel and interact with the places I visit in the future. It was a moving experience with a wonderful group, and I am so glad that I took this trip. A thousand thanks for all the planning and preparation that went into creating it, and to the group for being so open-hearted.

My trip to Costa Rica was inspiring, eye-opening and educational. Our guides were kind, great listeners, knowledgeable, and receptive to group feedback. The country was beautiful and the nature around us was healing. The diversity of communities we visited were very interesting and thought provoking. I'd recommend the tour for people interested in new ways of being.
