Safe Adventure
Here are the 10 commandments of tourist adventure conscious:
1) Ask for references and check if the company offering the service is formal and has a business license.
Serious business and professional has to be formal and have record of operation.
2) Make sure the company offers insurance cover for adventure activities and nature.
Insurance is an additional security for customers if they planned anything out of place and ensures that there will be some kind of assistance.
3) Make sure the company knows and applies the Brazilian technical standards for the activities it offers. Ask the company if it has a Safety Management System implemented as standard.
Every company Adventure Tourism should have a Safety Management System - SMS running on their activities. The system helps businesses organize themselves to provide maximum security for customers and reduce accidents. If accidents occur, the company will know how to react well. In addition to SMS, there are several other standards for activities that help companies and drivers to follow good security practices in adventure activities. Today is no longer secret, it's all in the standards.
4) The equipment must be in good condition.
Some machines have a seal of certification (national or international). However, the seal is not characteristic of all equipment, so stay tuned to the state of the material (appearance, cleanliness and storage conditions).
5) Remember, whenever feet off the ground is a helmet and where water is entering the vest.
Serious companies offer devices that enhance security, entertainment and comfort during the ride.
6) Act in accordance with environmental rules in their adventure: do not fire, contaminating the river and walk for ever marked trails. Produces little waste and bring it back.
Adventure Tourism is made in nature, we must be responsible with the use of the spaces we visited.
7) Check the condition of the first aid kit that the company is carrying in his backpack and have their specific remedies.
It is important to always be prepared for the unexpected.
8) Be responsible, know and respect your own limits.
Each person should know how to do activities that are fun, exciting and which are within its limit.
