Cusco ClubhouseCusco Clubhouse Events - Click here!Founded in 1999 the Cusco clubhouse is now well established and welcomes lots of visitors through its doors. Due to its proximity to Machu Picchu, the Inca Trail and the Peruvian Amazon, it is one of the busiest clubhouses. The clubhouse is located in the San Blas District at 670 Atoqsaycuchi. We also still have an Information Desk with basic services at Choquechaka 188. Contact InformationAtoqsaycuchi 670, San Blas, Cusco
Services on offerAs well as the usual SAE services such as trip planning, access to the trip reports and volunteer database, extensive library, reference books, maps & guidebooks for sale, luggage storage, safety deposit box, book exchange and wireless internet, we also offer a weekly events program, and the chance to learn about and contribute to local community and environmental projects. Volunteer ResourcesWe have information binders dedicated to those members who are looking for a volunteer project or want to learn about and contribute to local community and environmental projects. The binders are packed with information about organizations looking for volunteers across South America. We also have a collection of greetings cards, notepads and textiles for sale at the clubhouse on behalf of local projects that work with street children, disadvantaged young people and women from rural communities. Supporting local community projectsHere in Cusco , SAE tries to get involved in, and support community projects. In the past successful river clean ups have been organized, involving local students. More recently we have organized clothes donation trips to remote communities in collaboration with local businesses and NGOs Our weekly events program also gives local projects a springboard to promote their work. We often invite local organizations to the clubhouse to give a short presentation about their work in the community and how SAE members and other tourists can get involved. Weekly events ProgramWe have varied social and cultural events ranging from Peruvian Food & Drink Night, Latin American Film Night and BBQs to Quechua class, Andean Medicine talks, Salsa class and visits to a Peruvian fair-trade textile project to name a few!
Our Environmental PolicyIn following one of the aims of South American Explorers to: “ Support scientific field exploration and research in the social and natural sciences as well as charities and NGO´s with aims to improve social, economical and ecological conditions”, last year we set up a recycling center. It is possible to recycle plastic, paper, tins and glass. There is also a facility to refill your plastic bottles with mineral water. We also try to use low energy appliances and attempt to keep our ecological footprint as low as possible in running the clubhouse. We also sell biodegradable soap at the clubhouse for trekkers to reduce their environmental impact when out in the mountains.

The titles are: “Cusco ´s Ultimate Eating and Drinking Guide”, “Enjoy Cusco Safely” , "Weaving in Cusco" and “How can you help?”. Additionally, the "Cusco & Machu Picchu", "Bolivia Climbing", "Jungle", and "Alternative Inca Trails" Information Packets have been updated and are for sale at the clubhouses and on-line. HoursThe Cusco Clubhouse is open from Monday to Friday, 9:30am-5:00pm and on Saturdays from 9:30 - 1pm. Where we areOur main clubhouse is now located on Atoqsaycuchi 670, in San Blas. If you want to come directly to the clubhouse in Cusco, an airport taxi will cost 10 soles (US$3) to anywhere in Cusco, the drivers have a badge which says “Corporación Peruana de Aeropuertos y Aviación Comersial SA” which also has their name and photo. Alternatively, if you go outside the airport you can usually flag down a taxi for 3 -5 soles (US$1- 1.50). If you decide to do this (especially if you have valuables on you) make sure you check carefully for the authorized sign, which is a sticker with “2006 TAXI Autorizado” on the windscreen. Taxis also often have a black and yellow chequer board on the side doors and the license number painted on the doors. Tell the taxi driver to take you to Tandapata in San Blas. He will drop you off at the corner of Tandapata and Atoqsaycuchi and then you go down a few steps and the clubhouse is there on the left. View the clubhouse from space!
