Hi, I'm Hugo! I was born and raised by Lake Titicaca, and Puno has been my home for most of my life. I've been guiding here since 2010, and I still get excited every time I take someone out on the lake for the first time. It all started in a simple way: travelers would stop me on the street to ask how to get somewhere or where to find a good meal, and I loved helping them. That's still what I enjoy most, making your trip easier and sharing the place I'm proud to call home. I'd love to show you the Uros floating islands, Taquile and Amantaní, and the quiet peninsulas of Llachón and Luquina. We can also visit the Sillustani tombs, walk through Puno and Chucuito, or travel together to Cusco or La Paz with stops along the way. I guide trips to Arequipa and Chivay too. No two travelers are the same, so I like to shape each tour around you: your pace, your interests and the time you have. Before you arrive I'll send you a few practical tips, and on the tour I'll tell you the stories and the everyday life behind each place, the way locals live it. Write to me with your dates and what you'd like to see. I'll get back to you soon with ideas, and I'm happy to answer any questions along the way. - Licensed official tour guide in Peru since 2010 - More than 10 years guiding in Puno, Arequipa and Cusco - Advanced English certificate (CAE) - Driver's license to transport travelers in Peru
