What We Offer
Local Expertise
All of our local guides have degrees in tourism and a minimum of 2 years experience. They all speak English and Spanish and many also speak Quechua, the native language of Peru.
A Quechua speaking guide allows you to connect more deeply with your surroundings and the remote locals, who often only speak Spanish. It also allows them a deeper understanding of the history and legends that help to weave the fabric of the rich cultures of Peru, and share them with you.
Oftentimes, a guide can either ensure the holiday of a lifetime or can spoil a trip with their mistakes. That’s why at 69 Explorer we have a rigorous training program and unlike most companies, our guides are not freelance- they work with us, and only us, full time.
This means that they can enjoy the benefits of full-time employment with things such as healthcare, pension funds and regular payment, while you can expect a guide who knows the routes, the team, and the insider information on every trip.
In order to guarantee your comfort and safety, each of our guides are highly trained in all aspects of the trip, including responding to emergencies. Each guide undergoes annual training in guiding and first aid, and carries specialized equipment on journeys to ensure travelers safety: from emergency oxygen to satellite phones.
More than just our guides, our whole team is ready and set to ensure that you can enjoy the best trip possible. From our dedicated team of office staff waiting to fix any qualms and answer every question you may have, to our impressive team of chefs, ready to fix you deliciously decadent Peruvian meals along the trail.

Take the 7-color mountain tour with 69 explorers, the whole organization was spectacular, from start to finish. Our guide Ray, he was very patient with the group, helped us all be together and we could get to the top. The views are spectacular and everything was worth it.
