Transforming
travel into action
At Peruvian Soul, we believe in the positive impact of travel, not just for our clients but for the destinations they visit and the people that host them in their homes. Our commitment to sustainable tourism goes further than just supporting the local economies, protecting our ecosystems, and preserving the culture. We believe that travel creates empathy. Traveling encourages us to open our minds and hearts to the unknown.
Traveling allows us to discover, learn, and become interested in what surrounds us, beyond our city, our country, or continent. We are committed to making tourism a more sustainable industry and building bridges between the travelers and the local people, supporting learning experiences and creating positive change.

Every December, our team laces up their boots and sets out for a corner of Peru that most people never reach. We call it Papanoel Trekero, Hiking Santa: our way of bringing Christmas to children in communities far from any road, and of giving something back to the country that gives our travelers so much.

We believe that responsibility starts at home. From the very beginning, one of our priorities has been the wellbeing of our staff. To keep a fresh, innovative, and creative company, we encourage the active participation of all our team members in the strategic decisions of our company.
Profits are, of course, essential and the only way to be sustainable, but we have a more profound sense of responsibility centered on people. Whether it’s an employee, a provider, or a client, we have a very personal and human approach in which we always try to make a positive change in the life of the people we interact with. At Peruvian Soul, we love to empower our people and make them part of the success of our company.
We call Peruvian Soul our second home, and our team the family. In the last eleven years we have seen our co-workers growing with us, leading essential projects and developing personal and professional skills. It’s also very rewarding to see the positive development, growth, and improvement of the quality of life of many of the approximately 30 communities that we work with.
When designing our trips, we take special care selecting partners that can provide high-quality service and unique experiences while maintaining a strong commitment towards sustainability. It’s the human values; however, what makes the difference between excellent service to outstanding.
We really care about honesty, respext, empathy, punctuality, responsability, among other essential values when choosing the right people and suppliers to work with. We are proud to say that we have not only an excellent relationship with our partners in the tourism industry but have built a personal friendship with all of them. Whenever possible, we prefer to stay at owner-run properties, promote the consumption of local products, and partner with local guides who represent a diversity of connections. We believe working this way enhances the experience for our clients, being wellbeing to the people, and reinforces the local culture.
We are always looking for new ways to foster direct engagement and to promote long-lasting relationships. Our commitments to our clients is to be continually exploring selecting, and evaluating the best services and experiences. Our itineraries promote the interaction between travelers and locals genuinely, from helping them in their daily activities in the fields to meeting and sharing with incredible artisans. We support local economies and entrepreneurs as much as possible, and the interest and admiration of travelers for their culture is always the best way to reinforce their culture and traditions. Above all, many of our tours develop in natural areas, our itineraries promote environmental awareness and aim to educate on environmental issues.
