Our Values & Commitments
Our Sustainability Efforts
Travel as a Force for Good
We believe that traveling in a sustainable and conscientious way can change the world and bring cultures closer together. That’s why we are committed to preserving the magic of Peru’s local communities, its wildlife, and the planet as a whole. Our mission is to share not only our own knowledge, but also the wisdom of the people who call these lands home, contributing to a better, more connected world for future generations.
Fair Wages & Respect for Local Expertsv
Our people are the heartbeat of Valencia Travel Cusco. They are not nameless faces, they are the guides, porters, cooks, drivers, and local experts whose dedication has built our company from the ground up, here at 3,399 meters above sea level in Cusco. Many come from the breathtaking heights of the Andes, carrying with them strong lungs, strong hands, and strong stories that inspire us every day.
We believe in treating every member of our team as an equal, with fair salaries, performance bonuses, and meaningful recognition for their daily contributions. Beyond wages, we invest in programs that empower, train, and celebrate our people, because when our team thrives, our guests benefit from exceptional service.

To ensure our family of local experts continues to grow and succeed, we have implemented a range of initiatives, including:
- Continuous training across all operational areas.
