At ETNIKAS CLINIC OF INTEGRATIVE MEDICINE S.R.L. (operating as Traditional Retreat Center / Etnikas), we are deeply committed to socially responsible and sustainable tourism. We firmly reject, condemn, and actively fight against the Sexual Exploitation of Children and Adolescents (ESNNA) in the travel and tourism industry.
Etnikas has a zero-tolerance policy towards any form of physical, psychological, or sexual abuse or exploitation of minors. We believe that children and adolescents must be protected at all times, and our tourism operations must ensure their safety, dignity, and well-being.
We strictly comply with the regulations established by the Peruvian Government, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (MINCETUR), and the Regional Directorate of Foreign Trade and Tourism (GERCETUR), specifically:
Law No. 29408: General Tourism Law.
Law No. 30802: Conditions for the entry of children and adolescents to lodging establishments to guarantee their protection.
The National Code of Conduct against ESNNA.
To ensure the protection of minors, our company implements the following strict protocols:
Mandatory Identification: We require valid, original identification (Passport or DNI) for all passengers, including minors, at the time of booking and before starting any tour, trek, or retreat.
Travel Authorizations: If a minor is traveling with adults who are not their legal parents or guardians, we require a notarized written authorization signed by the parents, along with copies of the parents’ IDs, in accordance with Peruvian law.
Staff Training: Our team, including guides, drivers, and administrative staff, is trained to identify, prevent, and report any suspicious behavior related to child exploitation.
Refusal of Service: Etnikas reserves the right to immediately cancel any service, without refund, and deny participation to any individual engaging in suspicious, illegal, or unethical behavior involving minors.
If any of our staff members or clients observe or suspect a case of ESNNA during our services, we are legally and morally obligated to report it immediately to the appropriate authorities:
Peruvian National Police (PNP) – Tourism Police.
Line 1818: The free national hotline of the Ministry of the Interior for reporting crimes, including human trafficking and exploitation.
We invite all our clients to join our commitment to safe tourism. By booking a tour, retreat, or service with Etnikas, you agree to respect local laws and the rights of children and adolescents in our communities. If you witness any suspicious activity during your trip in Peru, please inform our guides or contact local authorities immediately.
