About Us

Bluesky guides

We are committed to hiring women, primarily single mothers in La Soledad Village, providing them with a sustainable source of income and the opportunity to enhance their self-confidence.

We aim to address and break down the existing gender stereotypes surrounding labor roles within the community.
By actively challenging these stereotypes, we hire women from La Soledad Village, support their economic empowerment, create equal job opportunities, and contribute to the community’s development.

As part of our commitment to their professional development, we pay our local guides a livable wage and provide ongoing staff training to ensure they have the skills and knowledge necessary to lead successful hikes.

BlueSky Adventures takes pride in being the first hiking tour agency that advocates for equal labor rights and actively challenges traditional notions of gender roles in the La Soledad Village community.
