Our guides Juan Carlos and Jhojan were the most amazing humans ever! They made this experience above and beyond and I couldn’t thank them and the porters enough!!

Davis (Jul 2026)

Working with this team was amazing, and the guided tour went above and beyond. Alpaca Expeditions was more than amazing, and the support, timeliness and care from Mapo Tapo exceeded expectations. I cannot wait to go on more trips with them!
