Satellite Phones
Part of the joy of the Andes is disconnecting — but your family should always be able to reach you. Every group carries a satellite phone and first-aid kit, and our guides are trained in emergency response.
Camping Equipment
Top-of-the-line gear on every trek. We partner with Casual Adventure Camping Stores, a family-owned U.S. business dedicated to the needs of outdoor travelers.
Comfort on the trail starts long before you arrive. Every tent, mat and sleeping bag is chosen, inspected and cleaned so you can focus on the mountains.
01 · Shelter
Our Tents
Enjoy a good night’s sleep in our spacious Eureka tents. Rated for four people, each is shared by just two travelers, leaving plenty of room to stretch out and store your bags. Their four-season design, with entrances on both sides, keeps you dry and warm through Andean nights — and doubles as a front-row seat to the stars.

02 · Hygiene
Private Toilet Tents
No need to hike into the bushes at night. Every group travels with its own eco-friendly portable toilet, set up in a private tent at each campsite. It keeps you comfortable and keeps the trail clean — our footprint on the mountains stays as small as possible.
03 · Rest
Sleeping Mats
A foam mat is included to insulate you from the cold ground. For extra comfort, add an inflatable Therm-a-Rest mat on top — ideal for restful nights at altitude.

Safety & Support
Remote trails, never out of reach — and a team that carries the load.
Porters & Horsemen
Our porters and horsemen carry the camp ahead of you, so tents are pitched and tea is ready when you arrive. They are fairly paid, properly equipped and the heart of every expedition.
