GROWING ON THE ROAD
“Something changes inside you when you go out and experience the world.” My first life-changing experience came shortly after high school. My family always incentivised my travel bug in many ways and my brother convinced my parents that travelling around the world was the best investment they could make. So, I had the opportunity to travel for one year and visited Europe, Africa, Asia and Oceania. On my journey, I was able to hike in Nepal, took a diving course in Egypt, live with a Masai tribe in Kenya, was part of a silent meditation course in India and volunteered in Tibet. I also read so many books, made tons of great new friends, discovered myself, and experienced many things that I had never done before. I simply fell in love with this way of life and wanted to do more and share it with all the world.
With Bamba Experience, I was able to share the independent traveller mindset. Travelling without a schedule, enjoying the now and moving on when ready to do so. It was about giving others the opportunity to disconnect from their daily lives and give them a chance to learn, dream, heal, relax, and enjoy life without the hassle of planning and booking pains. Instead, allowing them to focus on the pure pleasure of the experience.
During my college years at Babson College, I had the opportunity to work on a business plan that could make my passion for this way of life come true. I won the award for best business plan in my senior year and shortly afterwards it became a reality with Bamba Experience; the first hop-on hop-off travel network in Mexico. I wanted to find a way to create a travel company that could give back to this world, make people happy by experiencing the different parts of our planet and would open travellers’ minds by challenging fears, exploring passions, and making wonderful friends with amazing ideas.
We updated our brand in 2019, now known simply as bamba, but we have always kept the same core values since the beginning. We work hard every single day to make sure every experience is unique, local and specifically built for the independent minded traveller.
independent travel easy! Making Making independent travel easy! The travel business has changed, and Bamba Experience has changed and expanded in many different ways from when it all started back in 2005.

ONE TRIP
ONE TREE
By travelling with bamba you help us get trees in the ground and restore forests after fires and floods, create jobs, build communities and protect habitat for biodiversity. Forests provide jobs to over 1.6 billion people, absorb harmful carbon from the atmosphere and are key ingredients in 25% of all medicines. For every trip we sell, we plant one tree.
As citizens of the world, we all share the responsibility of protecting our beautiful planet. Now, more than ever, we need to reduce our footprint while learning from and educating others to do the same.

JUNIOR ZAMBRANO In Peru
I love my culture, my country, “The Pachamama” (Mother Nature) and I’m passionate about sharing these with all travellers. I have been working as a tour guide for about five years. Each trek has its own beauty and all were unforgettable with incredible people.

Awesomeness like Mexico must be shared with the world by passionate kindled heart people.
One of my most memorable moments was in the Masai Mara. It’s where you can see the famous big five and the crossing of the migration every year. I just love animals and find it so interesting to know about them. I can’t keep my eyes away!
“One taco is no taco”
I enjoy engaging with travellers that listen to our stories. Once after a Teotihuacan tour, a girl travelling solo told me she had come to realize the purpose of her life. 6
MACHU PICCHU TREKS
The most popular way to reach the UNESCO World Heritage Site is by hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. To this day, much of the trail is of original Inca construction and thus trekkers pass by settlements, tunnels as well as many Inca ruins before reaching the Sun Gate and finally Machu Picchu. In order to keep the Ancient City intact, just 500 Inca Trail permits are issued per day. There are also other ways to reach Machu Picchu. Popular alternative treks to Machu Picchu include the Jungle, Lares & Salkantay Trek. Each follows its own route and can be increasingly adventurous, cultural or physically demanding. Permits are not required on these treks. And even if trekking isn’t quite your thing, then you can opt for a train ride to Machu Picchu, without the need of any trail trekking!
