- Day Three:
Would you drive these deadly roads of Peru?
After a night in Ayacucho Stephan and I took the road north.
After hours of avoiding getting crushed by landslides or disappearing off the sides of the crumbling roads, we made it to the Guerrilla controlled region of Peru.

Discovery Chanel, NatGeo, Netflix take notes 📝 Kurt needs his own show, I'd be glued to every episode
👆
Nahh that wi not work... i like his raw filming and not rehearsed interaction s... beingnon netfliz and other things will just not be the same
They wouldn't go where Kurt does. I hope Kurt's getting that youtube money. He deserves it.
Corporate executives would do their best to ruin the format.
They would ruin it. Kurt needs to do what he does, they will manipulate and turn it into something that is completely different.
i am from Perú and all the people you met on your way were really honest about the prices, people in the countryside are very humble and respectful whenever you respect them, i grew up in Lima, the capital but i am really proud of my andean roots, keep doing it, love your videos
Facts bro, the older people in the Andean region have been through a lot.
Just been reading The Patagonia Express by Paul Theroux(1970’s). Now I’ve found your videos. Great stuff!
Why do they say,good no more? When he says hello? Just curious 😊
When I was young, I used to travel around the world. Most of the times by my own. At that time, no phone cam but only photographic machine, heavy and big. I saw places that sometime i still recall on my mind before falling asleep. When you Kurt will be 50, your mind will be full of good remembers. greetings from Roma, Italia.
I’m from Guatemala and I’m glad you’re showing everyone what life really is in countries like that and not just the tourist spots. Love your videos
Yeah and they’re pure shite like we expected. What a third world countries
@@drkrkt4927 😂
I know!!!
I give a huge dislike, because these "guerillas" are extremely minor in Peru, in the jungle, probably les s than 200 if even 100 active members, and I think this gives a very inaccurate representation of the peruvian nation, and even the jungle.
@@order_truth_involvement6135 it’s just his opinion. And the locals did say there is a lot of guerilla activity around that little village.
I love how you interact with different types of people and do not judge them form their circumstances and show respect to all. WELL DONE!
From my travels, I've found that local people are the best people.
Well youd have to be a serious pos to judge people because they were born in a 3rd world country lol. I mean wtf.
I think that is because he isn't grown up in a western country instead in south africa. I'm not saying that we westerners are automaticly judgemental, but I believe that many are and think they are something better
@@spectre1725 he is german
@@stefanschulz4293 no he is not. He is from south Africa
the way the dog came round to protect the kittens was so cute but it also shows how wary the wild animals are of people.
Kitten empanas are delicious.
And the dog marked its territory.
it warmed my heart when the dog protected them
22:15 the dog is taking a leak on the car while you’re watching the police 😂. Love the interaction with the locals. Well done Kurt
Lol i was about to comment about that, good thing u relayed the news😂
Like 2 or 3 times lol
@@RyanBurnsRed haha 😂
Whatta little shit that dog is 🤣
Oh it was so funny!
Taking abuelita Maria into town was the cutest thing I’ve seen
It was my favorite part :)
She got to high on coca 😂
She seems kinda crabby.
@@stephenhensley5631 nah, she's just old and probably a little uncomfortable but she did answer their questions. When they asked her how she was and she said good, no more, what she's saying is that she's kinda ok. The "nomás" she used is like saying so so in this situation. she did say good travel, papa or papito (can't replay) at the end so that's a bit of an endearing way of the people from the andes to call each other.
She was brave in taking a ride with strangers. I suppose the gringos have a good vibe and gut instinct tell her they were fine.
I like your whole attitude to adventure. You just go with the flow, try new things, speak to everyone, go on exploring... you're inspiring millions! 😆
Seriously? Sio unsafe.
They are lucky, that area is really a dangerous one.
Kurt you guys seriously deserve some kind of award. I watch your videos with a sense of adventure and fear and sitting on the edge of my chair that I just don't find anywhere else. And you guys are hilarious. I travel with my wife so I would no way do what you guys do, but I do love adventure off the beaten path and so does she. I'm a little at a loss for words right now. I'd have been driving like 5 miles an hour on that mountain pass The WHOLE way. You 7 hour trip would have taken me 10 easily. I don't want to see you take unnecessary risks but I gotta say, the risks you DO take, man they draw me in. Your videos deliver. I like the lack of click bait in your videos and titles...
there was no risk here, my family's from the jungle, they didn't avoid any guerillas. It was more dangerous when he made that video in one of Lima's ghettos.
@@order_truth_involvement6135 oh shoot how is life in the jungle? I would assume its like México where a lot looks run down n stuff and do you guys have any stories of being in the jungle? Like any folk lore any personal scary encounters?
@@justamango942 Not really. It was pretty chill. My grandma does have some folk traditions relating to believing in shamans. So they have weird medicine traditions. But only granny still believes in those things.
@@justamango942 My great grandpa fished with dynamite, and killed a jaguar. He lost 3 fingers, at least.
@@justamango942 Yeah, everything looks run down.
Really enjoying the dynamic of having Stephan there too
They really make a great duo
Yes! I agree! I love it 😍
It makes it safer for both of them too. I was shitting myself when Kurt was solo roaming around the no gringo barrios around Lima.
True
They are like a gay couple
Proud People they are....doing the best with what they have.
You two are legends for hooking up Maria with a ride !
I would’ve probably said no and drove off lmao sadly id think shes gnna try to lure me somewhere since we know this is guerrilla territory
@@EvilWey that’s fine but I would’ve gave the women a ride . If she set me up then let that rest on her soul .
@@EvilWey Honestly from what I understand the Guerilla's are more about bringing about socialism and communism than they are about gangs and petty crimes. Narcos on the other hand.....
Villagers are really against the narco guerrillas, as they also extortion them. They are good people trying to live the best they can in the middle of the violence.
@@tokiburoak7457 kidnapping is a big money maker for guerillas.
Whenever they asked for a regular coke drink and the store guy points to the bag full of coke leaves 💀💀💀
what do you do with the coke leaves? i know nothing about how it works :D
@@Rallew123 I believe you either grind them or chemically alter them as to make cocaine, the drug - definitely not Coca Cola lol (although coke did used to have some cocaine in it, years ago).
@@SpinningTurtle66 oh ok, thank you for the info 😃
@@Rallew123 No worries
@@Rallew123 The locals chew the leaves for a very mild effect. It is only when the leaves are processed and the cocaine is extracted does it become much more powerful.
You have shown that the people in simple places are genuine and wonderful.
Two Gringos with a kind heart for giving Maria a ride to town God bless u both🙏
Just found Kurt and he is the real deal. This guy needs a tv show. I’m addicted
@@soccer1970-f5f Yoooo chill out 😶
@@soccer1970-f5f hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Thing is, whenever stuff goes commercial like that, it wont be the "real deal" anymore, since there are other people in charge who will tell him what to do, how to act, etc.
LMFAOOO I love the dog just pissing on the car at @22:15 and a few seconds after too.
They were focused on the military convoy. I noticed the dog peeing on the car too. Rental though.
Leave Kurt unattended for a minute and the mans on Peru’s deadliest road💀
Yes sir hahaha
..... buying coke.
@@KurtCaz Kurt you need a drone for the amazing footage
@@KurtCaz If you want to go to a nice place where usually no tourist go, Try the VRAEM or Tabatinga / Leticia.
Come to Mexico Kurt
Visit Veracruz, Guadalajara Or Nayarit please
The ONLY Vlogger who I follow all his videos..its rare but Kurt is Amazing! Cant wait for your Dominican Videos Bro....Peace!
I appreciate you bro! Can’t wait till you back and we can hang!
@@KurtCaz get yourself to Sosua 😎
@@KurtCaz I was doing what you’re doing (in many countries) before TH-cam existed. It’s interesting to relive the adventures in your videos.
@@SlapRoundTheChops I lived there 4 years, en Los Charamicos. Sosua is the best.
My mother in law speaks Quechua and I want to learn it. Such a lovely country, so glad that my wife and kids are of Peruvian heritage. The people are beautiful and hard workers, I can’t wait to visit next year!
Did you learn it?
9:06 "Just put it in"
-Kurt Caz, 2021.
Kurt "Wow!! is this coca?!"
Locals "Si"
Kurt *loses his mind*
It's leagle there, they make tea out of it and other stuff.
@@bobbybobsen legal ....
@@edgywagy145 yes legal! you can buy it in supermarkets and bus companies are serving coca tea. It helps with the altitude
It makes you feel good? I need to try.
The coca leafs are legal and commonly consumed among the andin countries, the problems is when the narcs force farmers to grow it so they can process it and make cocaine.
I spent a week of my honeymoon in Ayacucho back in 1994. We were made very welcome in the town, and much less so in the surrounding villages. This was shortly after the capture of Abimael Guzman, but the Sendero was still present, and everyone in town had stories to tell about tragic loss, including a multitude of orphaned children.
How’s it like in 1994? Can’t imagine
@@kanyesfohead1323 like what you see in tv. You always had curfews and the military was everywhere in that region
I never knew how badly I craved adventure until I came across your channel !
Having Stephen with you make your video's more interesting, you're a good team.
Stephen brings balance to Kurt's crazy..lol
@will69forfood I’d do that Ngl
I think they make a lovely couple...👬😜🤣
I found once you have traveled on your own you realise how much better it is alone because your forced to interact with the locals more...❤️☮️
@@wwcwcp09 no strange vibes
Man one thing I really like about you is that you always very humble with the people and always buying something from them and always trying to help them amazing dude Respect 👍
18:35 is when the coca kicks in😂😂
🤣
\m/
🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahahaha
😎
Kurt: Coca?
Friend: No
*Changes his mind two seconds later lol*
15:44
His hands said yes before his brain agreed with it lmao
@@franciscolopez2414 fr😂😂😂
2 hours later, dam I wish that guy would have filled the bag more we're almost out.
Funniest part hahahahhahaha
18:33 the coca kicks in... hahaahha
Dude this has got to take the cake! What a smorgasbord of visceral experiences travelling with you guys. Brings me back to my own adventures back in the day!
What I like about Peru is your always within driving distance to the 15th century
Watching these videos makes me want to get out there and see what I'm missing in the world.
think about all the chicas
When traveling in places like this I always give the vendors that bit more than they ask considering the difficulties they experienced in life there ,
No doubt. They are likely funded by scary people and have to pay a lot to run a store. They keep very little.
Honestly Kurt's videos are the best content on youtube right now. He will be at a million subs within a year.
That turned out to be right lol
I remember this journey from when I did 4 weeks travelling in Peru! Towards the end when we were close to Cusco there was a bush fire and it was by the roads and we helped the locals with transporting water to try and help !
Thank you so much for helping my country men! I appreciate it.
Kurt, thanks for being one of those crazy guys that opens up the real world to us.
These two exploring is the best😃
Love the videos! I love how you try to speak the other languages! I learned how to speak Spanish so I could go out with a girl. My first gift to her, a Spanish English dictionary. We've been together 20 years, married 18 years. I get really happy seeing you speak to others. You try very hard, and I see in their faces that they really appreciate the effort. Keep making videos. There's nothing else to watch!!
Oh my goodness, how cute you are taking that little old lady.
I live for these beautiful little interactions you have with local people. It makes my heart happy af.
I'd have picked up all three of those kittens though, they'd be my kittens now.
22:16 doggo just melted your car chassis 🤣🤣
I love the energy in the car. I guess that was after eating so many coco leaf. I also loved the shots of the mountains. Keep coming with those videos Kurt.
Come on man I wanted to see the food part after you got the rooms
Man I love these videos, I’ve been learning Spanish since lockdown and I love seeing you talk to the people, much love from Yorkshire my dude 🇬🇧
Love from Cornwall mate🤙🏽

Hola amigo how's learning Spanish going bro
@@ellisagnew9789 estupendo amigo, ¿de donde eres?
hello, did you learn spanish finally?
I'm from Argentina, I've lived in the US for almost 30 years. These videos are amazing. I miss my country.
Where there’s danger there is beauty Kurt your videos are incredible, thank you for showing how great the world truly is amongst the chaos 👍🏻 Stay safe out there brother
I can't put into words the enjoyment i get from watching this channel, or maybe i can, in short, you are fucking amazing. You provide these sort of world-travel vlogs that are kinda informative and spontaneous at the same time. Your interactions with the locals with your almost perfect spanish is unique (also because you're pretty funny and you somehow make people laugh in other language) you put yourself in these positions where we get true human emotions out of them not for the camera but for YOU. You also record the entire day which makes it more immersive and entertaining. If someone asks me what my fav channel is nowadays i'd have to say yours. Thank you.
Spent years exploring the country in a 1974 VW Bug. Had a wonderful time, and never had any issues. The shining path gurrillas would paint a red X on all the doors that contributed money to them. I personaly never had an issues and I cross the Andes 7 times in the VW. over a 5 year period. No issues.
I spent a couple of months driving a truck along that dangerous road. A boulder just barely missed my truck one night. Scary as hell
LOL the lady at the shop had me rolling when she says "of course......"
Wasn't that funny bro
Hate Peru roads, in Chile all nice's road , I did the same trip ugly
@@louisbaez9456 what's the road got to do with the price milk in Vietnam
@@luke6645 haha absolutely nothing 😂
@@luke6645 she actually did not say "of course"
What a cracking video. Damn shame it ended as I was enjoying it so much.
I feel relieved that Kurt has a traveling companion as I’m sure it would make the bad guys think twice before starting something untoward.
Speaking the language must help to get strangers on your side, but most of all they have manners and a great attitude.
More please!
??? Not strangers...they are the LOCALS
I wanted to always go to Peru since I was in school reading about the place I’m now 58 so I’ll enjoy your travels. Thank you so much ❤️🇨🇦❤️
Love they helped the old lady and gave her a ride ❤️
Mario, do you need a ride?
@@agustindejesus7398 I do. I’ll wait for you.
@@mariobarrientos2226...Ma, iam on the way.

Yo Kurt! Thanks for sharing you’re adventures. Be safe brother!
Recent Subscriber Kurt, stumbled across Ur escapades, through wild camping, mountains & shite, etc...!🤣👍 U got some big nuts dude & I'm on for the ride...!😄💯 Ur interest, knowledge & language capabilities are beyond impressive, the later is what keeps U most safe, Ur confidence in Ur ability to communicate... All I could probably manage, would be - "I'm very lost, please don't kill me...!!!😄🤣😂🙄😭... Lmfao, U the man dude, stay safe & keep em coming, happy amazing travels...!✔️👊🇬🇧
Hi Kurt, this is so interesting that I had to watch it on a big smart TV to show my husband because this is just like watching a movie 🍿🎥.
Please don't take so long on posting more videos and you both be very careful. Stay safe. Thank you for sharing your journey. Best wishes from the Republic of Panama 🇵🇦🤗🙋
Me gusta tus videos @Kurt Caz. es increíble la maravilla que tiene nuestra Latinoamérica soy Ecuatoriano y afortunadamente hablo Ingles y encontré este bonito canal. Muchas felicidades y que lo disfrutes a lo máximo de nuestros bellos andes. Espero que visites mi pais Ecuador será un honor conocerte y vivir estas locuras.
He’s eating those coca leaves like chips 😂
Actually they chew them up, not eat them!
@@eulalioestevez3404 Yeah, it helps with the height. I bought coca leaves when I went to Peru, and coca tea. I had no problem with bringing it to my country, Uruguay. Everybody wanted that as a present LOL
@@LauRa-re9un what's the effect?
Love this. I started watching myself, and now my wife watches with me. We enjoy the natural vibe in the videos. Very nice indeed. This is like a rehearsal of a bucket list bullet. Thanks.
Oh by the way...you made us crave "cocoliches"....the Peruvian popcorn. It's my wife's favorite snack.
Love how nice and chill people are !! Love the vids im addicted
Word
Nancy i love you
@@endyyanto800 s i m p
most of them work for the narco communist and they finance the left political parties
Aw man every video I watch I wish I was there with you guys. So chill like your locals. And always in good spirits. Makes me want to learn the language. Luv from London.
14:20 "look al this!" - Said Kurt staring at pure and infinite grayness
Kurt you're the man
Kudos for allowing us to live our lives vicariously through your lens
Watching from Sydney Australia
WOW... incredible.... the part where all the coca leaves were just out in the open and they weren't really nervous or anything... a way of life... wild... I have to admit I am jealous lol
"No no no strange vibes" 😭😭😭😭😭 Wanted to say no homo so bad. 😂😂😂😂
Lol that was funny
Fantastic road trip! Loved every minute of it and your interaction with the locals is respectful and entertaining! Thank you.
That was communism working with narcos to spent the money on politics, the left work for El Foro de Sao Paulo was created by Fidel Castro/Lula Da Silva and its in every country in south America
Been trying to build my channel you motivated me to try and do whatever it takes. I’ve cried and never gave up I just hope I can reach the milestone you’ve reached already.
I've been binge watching your videos and really feel like I'm right there with you! stay safe over there dudes!
i'm peruvian, when chewed(chachar), the coca leaf acts as a mild stimulant and helps fight hunger, thirst, pain, and fatigue. It also helps to overcome altitude sickness , you shouldn't eat it, just chew it and spit it out.
#Truth!
Dude, I cant stop watching your videos. I love the fact that you are unique and real. No propaganda or anything like that. You show it like it is... I envy you some for traveling the world lol
15:40 Eating Coca leaves like they were popcorn...
18:33 *Few minutes later.*
😂😂😂
perfectly timed, bless you good sir
😂😂😂
🤣🤣
I enjoy your videos, I injured my back and foot, so I travel with you now. I was in the Military for 27 years and I traveled the world, like you do. Now I’ve gotten up in years & can’t do what you’re doing anymore. Thank You Kurt 😎
This was a badass drive through the amazon jungle alongside these scary mountain roads in a Toyota sedan and a 15 yr old iPhone🔥🙏🏾👍🏽 u guys are rockstars!!!
How can you not notice the dog peeing on your truck two Times?😄 22:13
Omg🤣🤣🤣
and he looked proud of it 😄
🐕
Hahaha🤣🤣🤣
This has a much more relaxed but still adventurous vibe with Stephan. Good content, keep it up!
I loooove your videos ♥️ Not fake - or so tourist videos. Pur Adventure and real life. 😎🤙🌍. Please more videos. Take care of you my friend 🍀🐷✌️ Best regards from germany
The view down the mountain is drop dead gorgeous
This Peru series is very interesting and adventurous. Take care while driving, we are enjoying these uploads from India.
I found this channel this morning and I'm hooked. Great content and dangerous experience that people want to see and not actually experience it.
I literally have been binge watching your videos! You provide excellent content and show sides of cities that rarely anyone does. Can’t wait for the next!
Such a fun adventure!!! ⭐️
You both are good team, so friendly to the locals!!! Great job speaking Spanish 👍
Sheeeit, I drive roads like that all the time in the mountains of Utah and Idaho. Not quite as cool and adventurous as Your escapades, though. Love your videos man. Very inspiring
The best content on TH-cam, by a landslide.
LOL I see what you did there
Love your videos broo,much love from Bulgaria!🇧🇬❤️
Im from guatemala too... and I'm glad too too see that reallity.
Hola Kurt,
This particular video is one of the best, most informative and captivating on TH-cam. And I know, being of advanced age and unable to leave my house, I spend most days entirely viewing videos (especially on travel).
Thank you for many, many pleasant hours of both entertainment and superb educational experiences.
Best to you from New Mexico, USA.
I hope you’re doing well and staying healthy Edward.
16:48 u guys hyping each other up lol love it
Awww the dog was protecting the kittens
You got guts my fren. Superb content, real life and typical village life , you can't get this from main media.
Dude, Stephan and you make a great team together! Min. 8:53 was so freaking funny! Hahaha It was like "Can you put it in my mouth? #nohomo" 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
These guys are brave. I’m envious of their experience.
Listening to "Welcome to the Jungle" was a brilliant touch! Cheers from America.
Your command of foreign languages is amazing 🇬🇧
I always believe there is a piece of heaven in Latin America's nature.
Thank you Kurt for those amazing videos!
Wish you safety always!
It's definitely heaven.❤️
Apparently they say God made a beautiful country and then put angry people 🤔
Great stuff Kurt. Btw "Chacchar" is the quechua verb for "masticar" (chew) coca leaves.

Watching Kurts travels has taught me most people are 99.98 percent good. We are all scared of different things and people types. We all want the same things in life. No matter what country, religion or social place we have.
Cheers Kurt😁👊🏻🍻🍻🇦🇺🇿🇦
You are, and have been for a while, my go to travel vlogger for a while now. Top notch content bru!
