Guiding Principles:
Personal Travel Experience is a Cusco-based tourism organization with more than 25 years’ experience in the development of responsible travel programs that protect and promote Andean culture, as well as support the people within the communities we visit.
Our approach is rooted in the principles of Andean philosophy:
Munay
Love … this is the power of love, that when combined with positive intention, produces unconditional loving kindness.
Yachay
Wisdom … this is knowledge and understanding that has been integrated through experience and developed into wisdom.
Llankay
Work … this is working in an honest way and being honest in your work; that is, working for the betterment of yourself and your immediate family, your community, and ultimately, all of humanity.
Ayni
Reciprocity/Solidarity… this stems from the Andean concept that everything in the world is connected, and refers to the cooperation between members of the community. I help you today, you help me tomorrow.
