Who We Are

Kuoda Travel was born when founder and President, Mery Calderon, noticed a large group of frustrated and tired tourists being herded onto a Peru tour bus. She realized there was a true need for a customer-oriented company that could offer travelers personal attention and treat them as individuals rather than as numbers. Ever since, Kuoda has been providing personalized luxury travel experiences: individualized, flexible tours to Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador.

The pioneer in private luxury travel in Peru, we are now one of South America's leading travel operators and are internationally trusted by those choosing South America as their destination. We have set the standard for luxury travel throughout South America with intelligent itineraries tailored to the needs, wants and interests of our customers.

At Kuoda, the customer's experience drives everything we do. For example, you will never have to sleepwalk to the Lima airport at 3am to arrive in Cusco for a long day of activities; you will never have to find your own way from your hotel to an airport or attraction; you will never pay for an itinerary that includes pricing for 3-course dinners when all you want is a salad. Your ease, comfort and pleasure are guaranteed when you travel with us.

With headquarters in Cusco and an office in the United States, we combine deep local insights with long-standing knowledge of international standards of luxury and service.

Our passionate and experienced staff brings a wealth of travel, tourism and hospitality industry knowledge as well as adventure-seeker know-how to creating unique and interesting itineraries for each client. Our local network of more than 80 top-of-their-field guides, drivers, historians, chefs and experts ensures execution is flawless.

Kuoda means to expand, to improve, to learn and to grow. Our team is strongly committed to applying these ideals as we design and execute tours to Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador.
