BORN IN THE ANDES · 2010
The mountain is our home
Travel with those
who know the way
Salkantay Go was born from a simple idea: sharing the vastness of the Andes in an authentic, safe and respectful way.
We are guides, cooks, muleteers and dreamers from Cusco. We work directly with the communities on every route and believe tourism should leave positive footprints, never waste.

They tell it better than we do
“Every day was better than the one before. Our guide didn’t just know the route: he knew when to make us laugh, when to leave us in silence and where to watch the best sunrise of our lives.”
“The itinerary is planned down to the last detail. We reached the Salkantay Pass with time to spare, no rush, and the team made us feel safe the whole way.”
“The porters and the cook were incredible. Reaching the Sun Gate at sunrise was the most emotional moment of our South America trip.”
“Bike, rafting, zipline and Machu Picchu: the best value adventure. Everything was very well organized and the guide spoke Portuguese.”
“We did Humantay to acclimatize before Salkantay and it was the best decision. Delicious breakfast and lunch, and the guide looked after the whole group.”
