After finishing my studies in administration, I began my career by working at the front desk of a 5-star hotel in the heart of the sacred valley in Cusco. This was my entry into the tourism field. From there, I knew that the world of tourism was my passion, not only because I love to travel but because I really enjoy sharing with travelers around the world how incredible and biodiverse our country is and showing them all the many ways to explore Peru — the ways that I learned over the years. After that initial job, I decided to become a travel agent. Nowadays, what motivates me is to find or plan the ideal trip for each traveler, focusing on what they really desire, in a special and unique way to create a magical experience that will always be kept in their memories.

Liz's Expertise

I specialize in customized trips for travelers who would love to explore Peru, including the Andes, Cusco, Arequipa & Puno, the Amazon, Iquitos & Tambopata, or our beaches in the north. I won't forget our coast side and deserts in Paracas & Huacachina in the southern part near Lima. Or the Salkantay & Inca Trail. I have expertise in designing trips to these places and with a wide variety of activities. These include cultural, gastronomic, and trekking as the most emblematic.

Liz's Best Travel Experience

One of my most memorable travel experiences was visiting the island of Amantani in Lake Titicaca. The people who live there are so interesting, I loved having the opportunity to share with them and learn so much about their way of life; how they manage to carry on their traditions. Plus, the joy of witnessing the incredible sunrise over the lake is simply beyond words!

Have ongoing attention throughout your entire journey, from the very beginning to the last day of your visit. If this is what you are looking for, I can't wait to meet you!
