Meet the Founders:

"Hi my name is Vidal Jaquehua. I'm the founder and owner of Adios Adventure Travel. My 5 siblings and I were born and raised in Cuzco, Peru. My parents are Quechuan People (desendents of the Incas). I give up my law career in order to start this business, because I love showing my country and my people with our culture and traditions. For over 15 years, I have been a licensed tour guide. I love my job, I have guided more than 5500 travelers over the paths and roads of Peru, so don't worry, you'll be in good hands. Contact me anytime. If you don't get a reply to your email right away. I spend a lot of time in the field and I will reply when I am available."

  "Hello friends, my name is Jacquie Whitt and I live in Virginia Beach, Virginia with my husband and two children. After 20 years of adventure travel planning and guiding on three continents, I made my first trip to Peru in March 2007. I had no idea what I was getting into, but decided that I wanted to try something different from the typical European/Western culture travel experience. I was overwhelmed by the raw, billboard-free landscape, and especially, by the generosity of the local people.

Vidal and I have become friends and co-founders of Adios Adventure Travel with a licensed office in the U.S.  My experience includes working on management teams for AYH (American Youth Hostels), COBS (Colorado Outward Bound School) and a Quaker school in Virginia.  I have personally guided groups of women and students.  Vidal & I enjoy crafting & planning your trips, whether you want to travel with a group or a friend or two.  We can guide you through the planning process and coordinate the logistics.  So if you crave an adventurous getaway, the mind-blowing trip of a lifetime, or something in between, contact me.

Meet our staff:

"Hola, my name is Hubert Jaquehua Callo. Yes, I am Vidal's younger brother. My passion is bicycling. I prefer to explore the Andes Mountains from the saddle of my bike. It is rumored that I learned to ride a bicycle before I learned to walk! Like my brother, I am a licensed Peruvian guide, but unlike my brother, I am also an avid mountain bike racer. Barreling down the side of a steep mountain on two wheels is my favorite thing to do. I have participated in many local races, including the competition called the Megavalanche from Moray to Maras and another from Malaga Abra to Ollantaytambo. My experiences have given me the skills I need to safely guide our bicycle trips, whether you enjoy toodling along smelling the flowers or tumbling down the rocky paths like a waterfall. Our bicycle groups are van supported and we provide you with bicycles & helmets. We can accommodate beginners and riders with advanced skills. If you have any questions or concerns about bicycling in Peru, contact me info@adiosadventuretravel.com"

 "My name is Yieber Cueva Lucana, (Jefferson), I am from Maras. It is a small community part from Sacred Valley. I am working in tourism 8 years ago. Well I started work as assistant Chef and now I am a licensed Peruvian guide. I work in all the trips in Cusco area and Peru. I like to teach about my culture and traditions and to do activities in remote locations. I love the mountain because I consider them my second home. I respect the nature, I love to walk in the mountain and prepare food using the local products as did my ancestors. I learned how to cook because in my community, and specially my mother, cooked lots of food for us during the festivities like birthdays & New Year's. I am now a specialist in Peruvian and Andean food. If you are coming to hike the Inca Trail or visit the cities, I can be your guide on your next adventure to Peru. We are offering a 7-day culinary trip, "Jefferson's Cusco Cuisine Tour." You can contact me at Adios Adventure Travel. Check out my recipes!
