The Heart of Auqui Adventure
More than just tours. We are a community of storytellers, explorers, and proud locals.
Our Origin
Changing the way you see the Andes.
Founded by local experts in Cusco, Auqui Adventure began with a simple observation: most tours were sanitized for tourists and detached from the real people of Peru.
We created Machu Picchu Free Tours to bridge that gap. By offering high-quality walking tours on a gratuity-only basis, we made cultural education accessible to everyone, while ensuring our guides were rewarded directly for their passion and knowledge.

What We Stand For
🏺
Radical Authenticity
We don't follow scripts. Our guides share the lived history of their ancestors, including the myths, the struggles, and the triumphs.
🤝
Community First
100% of our 'Free' tour tips stay with the Team and their families. We support local projects in the sacred valley.

Eco-Responsibility
We are committed to carbon-neutral trekking and zero-waste expeditions to preserve our sacred Apus (mountains).
