THE TRAVEL DESIGNER

AARON PAIVA LEYTON

CEO & Founder

“It's time to explore... to taste... enjoy... to travel to Peru. I am more than glad to show the Peru I see through my eyes. The scenarios, the food and its people are the essential ingredients of each of my travel adventures”

Aaron Paiva Leyton, the person behind TOURGUIDEPERU,embarked on this journey in 2002 with a vision to showcase Peruthrough the perspective of a local Peruvian. Aaron's educational background includes a degree in Business Administration from San Martin University and an Official Guide License from CENFOTUR, Peru’s Tourism College. These academic pursuits laid the foundation for his unique ability to bring Peru to life for those who engage with his company's services.

Additionally, he honed his English proficiency at California State University in San Bernardino, California, where he actively contributed to the "Study Abroad in Peru Program" for American students. These diverse experiences equipped him with the insight to anticipate and meet theneeds of his guests.

It was during this time that he realized, "It’s not the destination but the journey," a philosophy he lives by daily and invites others to partake in the journey of discovery with him. Beyond guiding tours, Aaron has demonstrated his creative talents by producing and directing well-received documentaries such as “Between Peru & Bolivia,” “Peru: Magic and Mystery,” and “From the Heart of Peru: My Mother's Kitchen.” Recently, he has extended his expertise as a consultant for various travel projects, contributing to the expansion of the hospitality industry's horizons.

Despite the challenges posed by the Virus Outbreak from March 2020 to August 2022, Aaron adapted by offering Peru virtual tour; "Following Aaron's Path" is a compilation of his own videos showcasing Lima, Cuzco, and Machu Picchu. With his live commentary, he brought the beauty of Peru closer to people from the comfort of their homes. Additionally, "My Mother's Kitchen - Cooking Along" transitioned into a virtual format, allowing participants to follow real-time recipes and recreate two dishes from Peruvian cuisine. Both virtual tours continue to be available for the enjoyment of his customers.

What's on the horizon? TOURGUIDEPERU is now based in Michigan – USA and just re-start activities to Peru as well as new products for travelers to South America.
