Inkaland Treks grew from the strength of family and continues to thrive because of the people behind every expedition.
We value loyalty, collaboration, and the human spirit of working together — guides, cooks, muleteers, drivers, assistants, and office staff.

Passion for the Mountains

We do this work because we love it.
We are mountain people — born in the Andes, raised on its trails, and deeply connected to its energy.
Our passion is what travelers feel when they trek with us.

Continuous Learning & Improvement

The mountains teach us something new every season.

It is a journey of connection — with nature, with culture, and with oneself.
We design every itinerary to be genuine, meaningful, and full of heart.
