Our Service & Pricing
"Every year my wife and I trek somewhere in the world for a week or two, always self-supported. This year we decided to do the Huayhuash Circuit with a guide, and after talking to four different outfits in town we went with Peruvian Andes Adventures. We were blown away by the service of all their staff. We were very particular about the itinerary, and they worked with us to make exactly what we wanted happen."

Why we cannot be the cheapest
To protect you—and your travel insurance—we are fully registered, operate legally and pay every tax we owe. That is also why we cannot compete on price with the cheapest operators.
Huaraz is full of unregistered agencies working illegally, with unqualified staff. If they are caught, the tax authorities can shut them down at any moment and seize their assets—and that can quietly void your international travel insurance just when you need it most, in an emergency on the mountain.
A registered tourism operator with a current regional licence and active SUNAT tax status.
Part of the price goes to the people who carry your trip
Our guides, cooks and donkey drivers are paid above the going rate, and paid on time. Field staff tell us the cheapest operators often hold back wages for weeks or months—and not rarely never pay the cooks or donkey drivers at all.
We are one of very few companies in Huaraz to keep an insurance contingency fund for staff who are hurt while working in the high mountains. Our prices let us reinvest in training, safe practices and good equipment—and treat the people we work with the way they deserve.
