Colca Trek Adventures began providing quality
Peruvian guided adventures of the Colca and Cotahuasi
Canyons over 25 years ago.
Originally founded in the early 1980's by Mg Vlado
Soto.
Expanded trip offerings provide our guests with
an innovative in-depth South Peru experience and
now include photography, birding, and archaeology.
We're very passionate of the Arequipa region
we are so fortunate to share with visitors, and
it's our goal to show our guests the Arequipa
region we know as “AREQUIPEÑOS”.
Colca Trek is dedicated to providing you with
best-class adventure travel experiences at affordable
prices. Choose from a range of over 70 adventure
choices in South Peru including climbing, hiking
and biking trips, cultural tours, river rafting,
horse ride expeditions, and much more.
Over the past 25 years our philosophy has remained
the same: to enable travelers to immerse themselves
in the country they are visiting; to learn to
appreciate its people, cultures and wildlife and
the delicate balance necessary for their coexistence.
