About Us
At Pachamama Escapes, we believe traveling is more than visiting places: it is about connecting with Mother Earth. As a travel agency in Cusco, we design authentic tours that blend nature, living culture, and Andean spirituality.
Meet Our Founder
Melissa is the heart of Pachamama Escapes. A Cusco native and professional guide, she carries within her soul a passion for the Andes and a profound respect for her cultural heritage.
Drawing from her roots in Cusco and her extensive knowledge of its history and ancestral traditions, she transformed her love for this land into a life mission: to create authentic, safe, and sustainable experiences that allow every traveler to connect with the true Andean spirit.
Her warmth, professionalism, and dedication are the essence that makes every journey a unique and unforgettable experience.
