Ο τόπος μας δεν ανήκει, μέχρι σήμερα, στους προβεβλημένους τουριστικούς προορισμούς της χώρας, παρ’ όλο που συγκεντρώνει όλες τις απαραίτητες προϋποθέσεις. Ιστορία παγκόσμιας εμβέλειας, σπουδαία πνευματική και πολιτιστική κληρονομιά, μοναδικά μνημεία και μουσεία, πανέμορφο φυσικό περιβάλλον (λιμνοθάλασσα, παραλίες, Αχελώος, Εύηνος, ιαματικά λασπόλουτρα, Αράκυνθος, δάσος Φράξου), καθώς και ένα τρόπο ζωής που στηρίζεται στην ηρεμία και την απλότητα.
Εδώ η γραφικότητα, η αυθεντικότητα και η έμπνευση συνυπάρχουν στην καθημερινότητα και σε καλούν να τις απολαύσεις όλο το χρόνο.
Σας περιμένουμε!
