Social & Sustainability Initiatives

Gender Equality, Diversity & Inclusion

At Valencia Travel, we are committed to building a travel industry where everyone has an equal voice and opportunity. We actively promote the inclusion of women as leaders and experts across all our destinations and within every aspect of our operations, striving for gender balance in our hiring and leadership practices.
We believe that increasing opportunities for women in tourism is not just good for our company, it’s essential for creating a stronger global community and a more inclusive society.

Tackling Gender Inequality in Peru

In Peru, gender inequality remains a pressing challenge, with thousands of women facing daily struggles simply because of their gender. We recognize our responsibility to be part of the solution.

That’s why we have set a bold mission: to double the number of women leaders and travel experts in our operations.
We also work to close the gender pay gap, fostering open conversations and setting measurable goals to ensure fairness and transparency.

Since 2020, we have achieved equal gender representation among our official company spokespersons, better reflecting the diversity of the society we serve.

In our Andean communities in Cusco, we are dedicated to empowering women by improving job opportunities, training, and overall quality of life , creating lasting change from the ground up.

Our Objectives:

Increase awareness and positive sentiment around diversity and inclusion across all Valencia Travel brands.
Empower women to take on leadership and specialist roles in tourism.
Close the gender pay gap through transparency and measurable goals.
Champion representation for underrepresented groups across our teams, partners, and travelers.

What Inclusion Means to Us

Inclusion means ensuring equal opportunity for everyone to contribute to our success and be their true selves, regardless of background, identity, or circumstance.
