1. Founded by a Local, Driven by Passion

Our founder, Victor E., was born in 1988 in a small village near Chinchero, one of the last Inca living towns. Raised by farming parents who specialized in potatoes, a staple of Andean culture, he grew up surrounded by ancient traditions, stunning landscapes, and the warm hospitality of his community. Inspired by the travels of visitors to his hometown, Victor pursued a degree in Tourism at Cusco's National University. After collaborating with several prominent travel agencies in Peru, he identified his professional mission: to showcase his country in a manner that is authentic, sustainable, and budget-friendly. Qoricancha Expeditions was established in 2022, born out of a shared passion and a forward-thinking vision.

2. We offer authentic experiences with local insight.

Our team is comprised exclusively of local professionals from Cusco and the Sacred Valley. We don't merely provide guidance; we share our cultural heritage, personal anecdotes, and intimate connections to the destinations we visit. Whether you're walking the stone paths of the Classic Inca Trail, savoring traditional Andean cuisine, or learning about the ingenious farming terraces of the Incas, you'll see Peru through the eyes of those who call it home.

3. We are committed to sustainability and community.

We believe in the principle of tourism giving back to the communities that welcome it. To that end, we organize regular trail cleanups, tree-planting campaigns, and community initiatives like our public library with internet access for children in rural areas. By choosing to travel with us, you play a vital role in supporting local farmers, artisans, and small businesses, ensuring that the tourism industry benefits the individuals who preserve our culture.

4. Personalized, Small-Group Adventures

We maintain a small-group format to ensure a more personalized and impactful experience. Your guide will be available to address your inquiries, share insights about the area, and adjust the pace to suit the group's preferences. This approach not only conserves energy but also contributes to preserving the natural beauty of these sites.

5. We are committed to delivering exceptional value without compromise.

We believe that unforgettable journeys should not come with an impossible price tag. Our extensive local network enables us to offer premium tours at competitive rates, without compromising on safety, service, or comfort. From highly trained guides and reliable transportation to carefully selected hotels and meals, every detail is taken care of.

6. Safety and comfort are our top priorities.

Your well-being is our top priority. All our tours include first aid kits, portable oxygen tanks, and guides trained in emergency response. We collaborate exclusively with vetted transportation providers to ensure a seamless journey for our clients, with a focus on clean, comfortable accommodations.

7. Our reputation is growing, and it is built on trust.
