Guides
We believe that our incredible guides and staff are the foundation of our programs. All of our guides are native of the Andes, highly skilled Aymaras who have been selected based on their technical proficiency, proven safety records, careful judgement, patient and great personalities.
Bolivian mountain guides are Internationally certified by IFMGA/UIAGM, representing the highest standard of training for professional mountain guides.
For decades Aymaras have been an integral part of mountaineering expeditions, they are the people you must have on the summit. We've seen some international expeditions where both guides and clients were struggling with the altitude. Our guides were born over 4,000 m (13,120 ft) , they have a natural adaptation to the altitude.
On a Bolivian Journeys expedition, you can be sure of being led by the best and most professional leaders in the business. We provide the most experienced and dedicated guides available, high altitude porters and safe drivers for all of our trips.
