This long overdue post is in remembrance of a special visit from representatives of Allies in Youth Development (Allies for short) in 2022. Allies has been working with local volunteers from Cusco trained by the non-profit organization and left in charge to lead Allies’ work in the region, supporting orphanages in Cusco. And we’re excited to continue working with Allies as they plan to send volunteers to Cusco, Peru from the United States and other countries in the future.
We were so honored to be able to share Peruvian culture while celebrating in the growth of Allies volunteers worldwide. During the Allies trip in 2022, we welcomed our friends with a Huaylas presentation, which is a traditional dance of the Andes mountains.
We express our most heartfelt gratitude toward Allies for the work they’re doing in Cusco, Peru. It’s so exciting to be a part of the change in Cusco!

Amazing people, amazing trip! - Our experience with Travel With Purpose in Cusco was truly exceptional, and it’s entirely because of the incredible people who made this trip so memorable. First, we have to talk... read more about our main tour guide, Jacob Diaz, who was absolutely AMAZING. He explained everything so clearly and thoughtfully that even my preteen and teenage kids were fully engaged and able to understand. He used pictures, made everything interactive, and brought so much energy to every tour. What stood out the most was how cooperative and considerate he was especially with early mornings and adjusting to how we were feeling day-to-day. He made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. We genuinely could not have asked for a better guide and would 100% recommend him to anyone!
We also did a 6-hour Inka Trail hike with another guide, Gran Beker, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. The hike was definitely challenging, but it was completely worth it. That said, we truly couldn’t have done it without him. He was incredible with the kids, constantly uplifting and encouraging us, which made such a difference in keeping everyone motivated. We needed quite a few breaks in the first half, and he was nothing but patient and understanding. He even carried our lunches the entire way and then gave us an amazing tour of Machu Picchu at the end. He completely elevated the experience for our whole family.
Samantha also deserves a huge thank you! This was a very complicated trip to plan, but she was there for us every step of the way. Her support made the entire process so much easier, and everything was executed perfectly according to plan. That level of organization and reliability made a huge difference.
And last but definitely not least, our driver Mario was outstanding. He is genuinely one of the most skilled drivers I’ve ever seen. When we visited the salt mines, we were driving along the edge of a cliff, and he maneuvered the van with such ease and confidence it was INCREDIBLY reassuring. The car itself was very comfortable, which was perfect for longer drives since the kids could rest easily. He even had blankets for the colder mornings, which was such a thoughtful touch. And to top it all off, his playlist was amazing!
Overall, this team made our experience surreal. Every single person we interacted with went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable, informed, and enjoying every moment. Travel With Purpose is an amazing company, and we would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone planning a trip to Cusco!
