About Frand
Your local guide, storyteller, and friend in the Sacred Valley.
Hola
I'm Frand Reynaldo Mayhuiri Ramos
I was born and raised in beautiful Urubamba, right in the heart of the Sacred Valley of Peru. For over 13 years, I’ve been guiding travelers through the landscapes, history, and living culture of my homeland. I became a guide because I love to share stories, history, and the deep spiritual traditions of the Andes with people from all over the world.
Nací y crecí en la hermosa Urubamba, en pleno corazón del Valle Sagrado del Perú. Durante más de 13 años, he guiado a viajeros a través de los paisajes, la historia y la cultura viva de mi tierra natal. Me convertí en guía porque me encanta compartir historias, historia y las profundas tradiciones espirituales de los Andes con personas de todo el mundo.
A Passion for History and Nature
Since I was young, I’ve loved reading about the Inca civilization, exploring ancient sites, and learning about the wisdom of my ancestors. I believe the best way to understand Peru is to walk its trails, talk to its people, and feel the energy of the mountains. That’s why I create personalized tours that go beyond the guidebook — combining history, nature, and local connection.
Certified. Experienced. Bilingual.
I am a licensed and certified tour guide in all of Peru. I speak both English and Spanish, and I lead private and group tours through Cusco, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, and beyond. Whether you’re hiking the Inca Trail or visiting a small village, I’ll make sure your experience is safe, relaxed, and unforgettable.
Your Safety Matters To Me
As your guide, I don’t just want you to have a great time — I want you to feel safe and supported every step of the way. I’ve completed first aid and paramedic training, which means I’m prepared to handle medical situations if they arise during our tours.
This is especially important for families, older travelers, or anyone hiking in remote areas. You can relax and enjoy the journey knowing you're in good hands.
My Guiding Style
Guests often tell me I am:
Friendly and easy to talk to
Deeply knowledgeable
Patient and flexible
Mystical — in a good way!
My approach is simple: I treat you like a friend, not just a tourist.
Why My Tours Are Different
I don’t work for a big tour company. When you book with me, you’re supporting a local guide and experiencing Peru in a more personal, meaningful way. All of my tours are:
Private or small-group
Tailored to your interests and pace
Focused on connection, not just sightseeing
We’ll eat local food, meet local families, and explore sacred places together.
Some of my favorite moments guiding guests from around the world.
