In 1977, we decided to exceed all standards of quality in tourism services by offering the highest level of attention and promoting responsible tourism development at the destinations we visit. Condor Travel aims to offer a unique travel experience for visitors as well as their hosts.
We invite you to be part of a marvelous trip to the best destinations in South America, where you will be not just a spectator, but an important actor in the well-being that your visit creates in each place.

Number of employees: 200
At Condor Travel, we assume the responsibility of playing an active role in the sustainable development of our region, protecting our living culture and archeological heritage, and increasing benefits for local communities.
Our commitment is reflected in the opportunity our visitors have to interact with local communities and contribute to improving quality of life with their visit. One specific case is the experiential tourism project in the Mullak’as Misminay community, where 300 families are improving their living standards through tourism. We also support natural resource conservation programs in the emblematic sites of Cusco, such as the Inca Trail and Machu Picchu, and we promote best environmental practices in our offices and the destinations we visit.
Rainforest Alliance recently verified our operation in Cusco, showing favorable results for our continuing progress toward achieving the implementation of sustainable tourism.
