We had a great time with Juan as our guide. He was very knowledgeable about the Rainbow Mountain and gave us some great recommendations on what else we could visit in Cusco and its surroundings. We definitely will be back to explore other places. Thank you Juan for an unforgettable experience.

Juan was incredibly knowledgable and very thorough in his explanations of historical locations and ruins in Cusco and Machu Picchu. He was a highly detailed and caring guide who made sure that we were constantly engaged throughout our journeys with him. It was truly an unforgettable experience thanks to Juan.

Juan’s passion for the culture and history of Peru was infectious! Not only was he perfectly organized and knowledgeable at every location he took us to (including the city of Cusco and Ollantaytambo, Moray, and Machu Picchu) but he was a blast to spend time with. Strongly recommend Juan, best family trip ever!

I can't thank Juan enough for making our dream family vacation to Peru a reality. Juan handled all of our logistics for four days and everything ran seamlessly. Our entire family instantly enjoyed every moment with Juan - he is extremely knowledgeable, fun, personable and a joy to travel with. He is organized and always has safety top of mind. Our family would follow Juan on the trail anytime, anywhere! Thank you again!

Our entire experience with Apurimac Adventures was incredible! From my first contact with Juan, when we connected on WhatsApp, he treated us like family and we collaborated together to create a customized bucket list adventure in Peru. Once we agreed on the dates and places we wanted to see, he took care of everything (purchasing the tickets, picking us up at the airport in Cusco, reserving the train tickets and hotel in Aguas Calientes, lunch locations, etc.) After we arrived in Cusco, Juan guided us for 4 perfect days in Peru. He has a deep knowledge of each of the sites that we toured - history, culture, architecture - and the tours of Ollantaytambo, Moray, Machu Picchu, the hike up Wayna Picchu, and the walking tour of Cusco exceeded all of our expectations. Almost more importantly, he is a genuinely nice and fun person to travel with, beyond being extremely knowledgeable and very well-organized. We could not have asked for a better adventure. We would love to hike along the Inca Trail in a future trip and, when we do, we will certainly call Juan and use Apurimac Adventures again!

If you’re contemplating a tour with Juan, book now! From the very beginning he has been an amazing tour guide. He truly has treated us like family since the first day we met. I cannot even begin to tell you how supportive, knowledgeable and reliable he has been throughout our 4 days together. He planned everything from pick up, to full tour day to drop off. We didn’t have to think about a thing! He booked everything and made sure we experienced it all at the right time opposite of the large tours & took amazing photos along the way. We wouldn’t hesitate to reach out to Juan again for another visit to Cusco! Thank you for everything, we appreciate you brother!

Every trip I've ever taken I've planned and visited sites on my own terms. As I was doing my research on Peru, I realized I needed to set up with a tour guide. I don't like doing tours on a bus with a bunch of people. Not my thing.
I found Apurimac adventures. I sent an email with plans and ideas and asked if they could accommodate. I got and email from Juan with better plans and accommodations and a request for a phone call. The phone call sealed the deal. Juan was the type guide I needed. With his knowledge and expertise of the area, I knew I was going to have the trip of a lifetime.
The customer service and communication was incredible from the start to the finish. Very personable and professional.
From meeting us at the airport and taking us to the navy locations, it truly was more than I could have ever expected. It really was the trip of a lifetime. Juan is the best type guide I've ever had and I would recommend his services to anyone who plans to visit Peru. I would like to come back and do other tours with Apurimac adventures.

Thank you for such an amazing trip

We had the most amazing trip with Juan at Apurimac Adventures and highly recommend them! We are a young couple and were in Peru for part of our honeymoon. From planning to execution Juan took great care of us. Before booking we spoke to Juan about what we wanted and he built a custom itinerary for us and did all the planning (booking trains, park passes, arranging for a private driver ect.) We did a tour of Cusco l, the 2 day machu pichu trek, lake humantay and rainbow mountain. Our guide Juan was deeply knowledgeable about Peruvian history and Incan culture - he is a local guide that speaks the local language of Quechua - he is who you want to show you Peru! Juan’s English is also perfect. Juan was a great leader on our hikes and treks as well. He made the trip special and accounted for us in every move. We were very comfortable the whole way and Juan was happy to tweak scheduling to accommodate any last minute desires or changes in plan. It was like having your very own best friend to show you the sacred valley and other adventures around Cusco. The service could not have been better. I have already referred several friends to Juan and will continue to recommend him to anyone wishing to have an incredible travel experience in Peru. It was a trip of a lifetime that was super easy to plan thanks to Juan, who I now consider a dear friend. Reach out to him and you will not be disappointed!!! 5 stars - no question.

I had an amazing time hiking the 4-day Choquequirao trek with Juan. He knows a lot about the area since he grew up there.

We stayed in lodges on the trek, which was very comfortable after a long day hiking. Especially his own lodges in Marampata, close to the ruins are very nice. I asked for vegetarian food and everything was local, super delicious and very nutritious. I also feel like I learned a lot about the culture and lifestyle in the Andes and even picked up a few words of Quechua.

We had Choquequirao almost to ourselves which was magical. Juan knows all the hidden treasures inside the ruins. That made my visit very special.

I have gained an experience that I will remember forever and I look back at it with very fond memories. Thanks Apurimac Adventures!

Juan is originally from the village next to Choquequirao. He knows everything about the area and has the best tips and insights, even hidden gems that you wouldn't find otherwise... he puts his heart into making your trip the best experience, very flexible (vegetarian food) and accomodating if you need anything. At some point I almost gave up (the trek is quite tough!), and around came the "horse taxi" and saved me :-)

We saw people do the trek without a guide but would absolutely not recommend that. Juan's service is priceless.
