APE is so fortunate to have a dedicated team of muleteers and porters who play a crucial role in our expeditions. Our muleteers and porters come from remote towns located far from our city. They are warm, friendly, and cordial individuals who have a strong desire to improve their lives and provide a brighter future for their children.
We deeply appreciate the invaluable support and hard work of our muleteers and porters. They are always delighted to accompany us and assist in carrying the heavy loads throughout our treks and hikes. Their strength, resilience, and familiarity with the Andean terrain are essential for the success of our journeys.
Our muleteers and porters not only provide logistical support but also serve as ambassadors of their communities. They are proud to share their local knowledge, traditions, and stories, enriching your experience with cultural insights. Their presence enhances the authenticity of your adventure, allowing you to connect with the local way of life and gain a deeper appreciation for the Andean culture.
At Andes Peru Expeditions, we prioritize the well-being and fair treatment of our muleteers and porters. We provide them with fair wages, proper equipment, and adequate support to ensure their safety and comfort. We believe in fostering a positive working environment that respects their dignity and promotes their personal growth.
In all our Andean expeditions, we ensure the well-being of our emergency horses, each cared for by a dedicated horseman ready to assist you whenever needed. It’s essential to emphasize that in the treks we organize, we rely on horse services, with each horse carrying a maximum load of 40 kilograms to ensure their optimal health and condition. Our horses are treated with utmost care and respect, guaranteeing their strength and well-being as they transport our camping equipment, ensuring your comfort and contributing to unforgettable journeys.
