Pacaya Samiria with a local guide
Small-group expeditions through the reserve with someone from the area, entering from Nauta towards the Yanayacu–Pucate communities.

Travel the world as if you knew someone there.
DestyWay brings together places to stay, experiences and local services that I find as I travel: from a small hostel in the Andes to an expedition through the Amazon. It starts in Peru. The idea is for it to grow country by country, without turning into an anonymous catalogue.
Peru · DestyWay's first country
The DestyWay rule: prioritise small businesses, local contact and experiences with something to tell. When a recommendation is part of a commercial project, it's flagged.

A structure built to grow.
Today there are only a few projects. Tomorrow there could be hundreds: hostels, surf schools, rentals, horse rides, retreats, guides, workshops or experiences I haven't discovered yet.
Destinations
One country now. Many later.
I'd rather open a country once I've been there and have something useful to add. For now, the whole DestyWay structure starts in Peru.

From travel blog to local network
DestyWay comes from travelling, not from filling a database.
The project began as my travel notebook: routes, mistakes, prices and places I liked. As I met guides, hostels and small businesses with little online presence, it started to make more sense to connect the two.
The blog is still here. It's the part that explains why I recommend a place and how to plan a trip around those experiences.
Do you run a local business?
We also build the websites featured on DestyWay.
If you run a hostel, guiding business, school, rental or experience, you can have your own independent website and use DestyWay as an extra shop window.
