Peru Tours & Vacations

Peru is an indomitable land of deserts etched with ancient geoglyphs, rainforests teeming with wildlife, and soaring peaks harboring secret cities.

While many travelers come to visit one of South America's most famous sites, the ruins of Machu Picchu, the real Peru lies within its warm, proud inhabitants – many of whom can trace their bloodlines back to the Incas. What you might not expect is the foodie bonanza found in Lima or the adventures that await you in the ancient capital of Cusco. Whether you’re exploring the cobbled streets of Arequipa, bobbing on the floating islands of Lake Titicaca or learning about mummies in Nazca, our Peru tours will have you feeling like a modern-day Indiana Jones. Just don’t forget to pack your fedora.

Classic Peru

Joseph · Traveled February 2024
Quick bit comprehensive tour of Peru. The highlight was Machu Picchu but the side trips to Cusco, Aguas Calientes and Puno/Uros Islands/farm stay are excellent. We had a great group of travelers.

Classic Peru

Anne · Traveled February 2024
Amazing trip! Machu Picchu, of course, did not disappoint but an extra excursion to Palccoyo Mountain was a memory I will never forget. This was truly an intro into various parts of Peru. I learned so much about its history and the Peruvian people. The boatride on Lake Titicaca and the homestay with a Quechuan family were surprisingly fantastic. Our guide Leo was spectacular…the perfect host. Highly recommend this trip.
