Hola, I'm Joseph

A Local Tour Guide in Cusco, Peru

My name is Joseph Guevara V., and I am a licensed tour guide based in Cusco, Peru.

For me, guiding is about much more than showing travelers where to go. It is about helping them understand the places they visit, discover the stories behind them and connect with Peru in a more personal way.

Cusco and the Andes are filled with extraordinary history, impressive landscapes and traditions that remain alive today. Through my tours, I want to share that richness with travelers from around the world while creating a relaxed, informative and memorable experience.

Whether you are standing among the ancient walls of Machu Picchu, exploring the Sacred Valley or walking through the historic streets of Cusco, my goal is to make every visit meaningful.

Living Connection

Peru Is More Than a Destination

Peru is a country where the past and present are constantly connected.

Ancient Inca engineering, colonial history, Andean traditions, local markets, traditional food, breathtaking mountains and modern daily life all come together here.

As a local guide, I enjoy helping travelers see beyond the surface. A stone wall becomes more interesting when you understand how it was built. An archaeological site becomes more meaningful when you know the people and beliefs behind it. A journey through the Andes becomes unforgettable when you understand the culture surrounding you. That is the kind of Peru I want to share with you.

My Passion

Sharing the Stories Behind Every Place

Every destination has a story. Some stories are found in archaeological remains and historical records. Others survive through traditions, communities and the knowledge passed from one generation to another.

One of the things I enjoy most about guiding is transforming a visit into an experience that makes sense. Instead of simply telling you the name of a temple, mountain or archaeological site, I want to help you understand why it was important, how people lived there and what its history means today.

And, of course, there is always time to enjoy the landscape and take great photographs along the way.

Freedom & Comfort

Travel at Your Own Pace

I believe a great tour should feel like your experience, not simply a timetable you have to follow. Every traveler is different.

Some people want to know every detail about Inca history. Others prefer photography, architecture, nature, local traditions or simply enjoying the landscape without rushing.

That is why I try to understand what interests you and adapt the experience whenever possible. There should always be time to ask questions, stop for a photograph, appreciate a view and enjoy the journey.

My Guiding Style

Informative, Personal & Relaxed

My approach to guiding is simple: help you discover Peru while making you feel comfortable throughout your journey.

Personal

You are not just another passenger in a large group. I want to know what interests you and what you hope to experience in Peru.

Flexible

Travel plans do not always need to feel rushed. Whenever the itinerary allows, we can adapt the pace of the experience to you.

Informative

Learn about Inca history, archaeology, traditions and the cultural significance behind the destinations you visit.

Friendly

Feel comfortable asking questions, taking photographs and enjoying the experience without unnecessary pressure.

Authentic Context

More Than Sightseeing

When people think about Peru, places such as Machu Picchu, Cusco and the Sacred Valley immediately come to mind.

They are extraordinary destinations — but Peru has much more to offer. Its real character can also be discovered through small details: a traditional market, an Andean community, local agriculture, ancient customs, food, language and the relationship people continue to have with the mountains.

Whenever possible, I like to provide this additional context so that you return home not only with photographs, but also with a better understanding of Peru.
