ecological concerns, and a product that combines
technology and quality with best value for our

have incorporated the universal principles
of tourism; protect the environment and
benefit the local communities and its
culture. With this
purpose we recruit and train local staff that
who knows, understand, feel and respect the
places and the people.
Helping the local community, providing
opportunities for local people is vital in
ensuring that tourism benefits the
community, improve life standards and give
opportunities to people.
We employ local staff and pay them fair,
legal wages.
We ensure that our treatment of staff abides
by legal requirements.
We use locally-owned transportation and
accommodation.
Responsible Tourism, Conserving the
environment:
The beauty and diversity of Peru is
awe-inspiring – we want to keep it that
way…On all our tours, we have a clean-up
policy that must be respected by all our
team – ‘take out what you take in’, We use
propane to cook meals on our
treks, We ensure local water is kept clean
by avoiding using pollutants in streams or
springs, We limit deforestation - we do not
make open fires and discourage others from
doing so. We avoid activities which threaten
wildlife or which may be potentially
damaging to our natural environment.
OUR TEAM
All our Tour Guides are Native Cusquenians
highly-experienced, knowledgeable; we speak
QUECHUA (Inka Language) Spanish and fluent
English. Some of us also escort groups of
tourists in Peru and attend courses on first
aid, rescue, high altitude sickness
problems, flora, fauna, and of course
history and archaeology.
OUR PORTERS, MULETEERS
AND COOKS
We employ local people as porters, and cooks
(Genaro, Percy, Daniel, Leoncio, these guys
are responsible on to delicious and plenty
food, You will see them on the trail nimbly
running past you carrying all the equipment
you will use - tents, tables and chairs,
food, water etc. (On other trekking routes
horses are allowed and therefore the porters
and cooks do not carry all the equipment.).
