Altitude Experience has a work philosophy that it now follows. Each member of the team must be treated equally and fairly. Due to this method of operation, we were the first company in Cusco to have guides leading groups. A practice that is not widely practiced in Cusco but is desperately needed. That is why we started a project to empower women to become Inca Trail leaders, trekking chefs and porters.
There will be a leading guide if your group size is between 2 and 8 people. When the group size exceeds eight people. Two guides will be needed to oversee the entire group.
