Meet Your Dream Team 

We're the friendly faces behind the scenes and by your side — your unofficial hype squad, logistics ninjas, trail snack dealers, and dance-floor encouragers. Whether it's smoothing out travel hiccups, finding the best alpaca wool scarf, or making sure your ceviche is spicy but not too spicy, we’ve got your back (and probably your extra water bottle too).

Co-hosted by Martine & Jeison, your friendly duo behind Rainforest Reef Escape. — we’ll be with you every step of the way. In Peru, we’ll be your compass, your comic relief, your yoga-mat sherpas, and your altitude-breathing buddies. From mystical ruins to mouthwatering meals, and from early-morning train rides to late-night giggles, we’re here to make this 10-day escape smooth, soulful, and wildly memorable.

So loosen your laces, open your heart, and get ready for an adventure where the only thing more epic than the Andes… 
is the glow on your face by day ten. 

Let’s go make some magic. ✨

Martine Racette

Adventure host, travel designer, and fearless founder of RR Escape for nearly two decades.  Martine has a sixth sense for fun, a backpack full of surprises, and a talent for making group travel feel like a well-choreographed flash mob. She’s fun, cheeky, and loves a good laugh. With Martine at the helm, every trip feels like a joyful, soulful party where everyone belongs.

Jeison Vindas Gamboa

Adventure wizard and Swiss Army Human 
Jeison is the guy who’s always one step ahead — whether it’s carrying your bag, pointing out the trail, or nudging you to try something new (yes, even that waterfall jump). Hailing from Costa Rica, Jei brings that irresistible “no sé qué” that adds just the right amount of spice to our escapes. His specialty? Helping you push your limits — with a grin and maybe a dance move or two.

Guido Pereira Cardenas

Main Giude and Llama whisperer. 
Part of the RR Escape crew for years now, Guido is one of those guides you don’t forget. A proud Peruvian with a heart as big as the Andes, he’s been leading groups through his homeland with passion, swagger, and a serious love for Inca history for decades. Whether he’s cracking a joke, pointing out a hidden trail, or helping you snap the perfect llama selfie, Guido’s got your back—with good vibes and a steady pace.

And just when you thought the dream team couldn’t get any dreamier — we’ve got even more local legends joining the party! Whether we’re zipping across the Ica desert in dune buggies, cruising past barking sea lions on our Ballestas Islands boat tour, or climbing ancient stone steps on the Inca Trail, you'll be in seriously good hands.

Our desert and ocean escapades come with expert local guides who know all the best secrets — from where to spot penguins to how to survive a sandboarding wipeout with your dignity intact. 

Together, this colorful cast of characters will weave a little extra magic into every moment. Trust us, you’re going to want to write postcards home about them

Are you ready for this? Pfft—of course you are. Pack that sense of adventure (and maybe some stretchy pants) — Peru’s waiting, and so are we!

See you soon! 🇵🇪🎒✨
How We Roll (Responsibly)
At Rainforest Reef Escape, we believe travel should be equal parts adventure, connection, and uncontrollable laughter — all while treading lightly on the beautiful places we visit. We're big on responsible, sustainable travel, which means supporting local businesses, respecting nature, and saying a firm no thanks to cookie-cutter tourism.

Since 2006, we've been guiding small eco-adventure groups and retreats through Costa Rica, Peru, and other pinch-me-I'm-dreaming destinations. Our trips are soulful, joyful, and just the right amount of wild — think yoga by waterfalls, hikes with heart, and food you'll still be dreaming about weeks later.

We’re also a fully registered travel company with TICO (short for the Tourism Industry Council of Ontario). That means whether you're joining us from North America, Europe, or a cozy corner of the world we've yet to explore, your travel investment is protected and your adventure is in trusted hands.

✨ Visit our TripAdvisor page — and don’t forget to leave a glowing review once you’re back from this epic adventure.
We very much look forward to seeing you in Peru! 
Big hugs from Martine, Jeison & your Andes A-Team
