Julio César Choque Benavides
Hi guys, my name is Julio Cesar, and I will tell you a little about my life. I was born on January 02, 1985, and the biggest motivation I have is my family. In my free time, I like to read and listen to music. I am fluent in English, Quechua, and Spanish.
I chose to study the professional career of tourism because, since I was a child, it has always been my passion to know new places, discover impressive landscapes, and learn about new cultures, which is what privileges us to be tour guides. Every person who comes to know our country falls in love with our country. And this is something that we must continue to share with others.
I have more than 13 years as a tour guide and about 4 years working in Salkantay Trekking and I feel very happy as the first day. Of all the routes I was able to know and explore, I consider that I have more experience in the Huchuy Qosqo route, but, without a doubt, the Salkantay Trek is phenomenal; you can get to experience all climates and observe diverse landscapes. It is really incredible!
I wish that we continue to move forward in Salkantay Trekking, together with the great team that we work with the goal of providing the best travel experiences. See you soon!

Amazing all round
They are very professional and friendly. The tour guides and food services are amazing. The vans were brand new and very comfortable. I wouldn’t use any other tour service and you shouldn’t either!! We did the short Inca trail trek as well as rainbow mountain with them.
5D/4N Salkantay Trek
Myself and my partner did the 5D/4N salkantay trek in December 2021 with Alex and Fredy as our guides and it was one of the best experiences we have done. The food and the accommodation were fab and whilst the trek was challenging at times it was super fun and very rewarding.
AMAZING
We did the half day city tour and the one day Machu Picchu tour and it was amazing. Our guides, Fredy Apaza and Ricardo were not only friendly and warm people, but EXTREMELY knowledgeable. They provided us with so much information not only about the sites but about the ancient and modern culture. Their peruvian pride really was special. They offered all help from advice with our stay in the city to taking all of our pictures. They gave us the most incredible experience. I would 100% recommend this tour to anyone, especially with our guides.
Highly Recommend
Amoroso was a fantastic guide. Would recommend to anyone. He was a very knowledgeable about the history of his ancestral land and went of his way to make sure our experience was as nice as possible.
Excellent
Seeing a new side of life made the whole trip that much more personal. Aside from Franz and Carlos guiding and teaching us about the Andean life, they had such high spirits that kept us going! I would ask for them specifically in my next trip!
Best experience EVER!
My friend and I did the Humantay Lake and Salkantay Pass Trek with the most awesome guide, Jorge! The views were amazing, the service was great! The meals included were delicious and they even give you snack packs for your day hikes. What made the experience great was Jorge. He was super friendly, kind, respectful and the best cheerleader. The treks are not a walk in the park, but Jorge shared interesting facts and the history of the places along the way making everything enjoyable. And whenever he noticed I was tired, he would cheer me on. Book this trip! You will not regret it. Muchas gracias Jorge!!!
Best 5 days ever
The Salkantay Classic 5 day was the most incredible experience of my life. Our guide Fredy Apaza Huarhua was absolutely outstanding. He was both knowledgeable and good-humored. He made sure everyone had a great time and was hugely supportive during tough times. I would 100% suggest this trek to anyone in great physical condition and a taste for adventure!
