Founder, manager and Mountain Guide of Andean Peaks

I was born and raised in the hamlet of Yarush in 1987, at the foot of the Cordillera Blanca. From very young age i was born my passion for the mountains. In 2003 I started as enthusiast to climbing in rock next to my brother Eloy. In 2009 i obtained the title as ''official guide of high mountain'', i also ranks first in his class.
I enjoys doing sports climbing and opening new avenues in the cordillera Blanca, and in other countries. My wide experience has meant that he has climbed most of the mountains in cordillera blanca.

If you are ever in Peru to climb or trek, you MUST use Andean Peaks. Eloy and Octavio are both extremely communicative and porfession. Very safe and pleasurable experience. They held our deposit for two years due to us postponing our trip because eof covid. We had zero issues arriving two years than planned. Again, I can’t think of a better tour operator in Peru.

Excellent outdoors company. We have had one of the best experiences in the mountains thanks to the organization and coordination of the whole group, from the food, porters, installation of camps. I would definitely choose them again for any outdoor activity.

Thank you very much Andean Peaks! It was my 3rd expedition with you and every time better! I am proud to know Octavio and Eloy, two excellent professionals and a very good working team. They even repaired the sole of my double boots and saved me the trip! And the food was also very good, excelent service. See you next time and thank you very much!

Octavio wss injured and we ended up with Hector instead. He is new, but is very friendly and hard working. I would acclimatize more than the stated 3 days at one of the lagoons if you want to increase your chance at success. Communication was lacking a little prior to the trip with no contact until the day before the trip. Overall the crew was great and went above and beyond my expectations.
