Discover colonial cities, lakes, rainforest, ancient ruins and world-class gastronomy all in one destination. A luxury trip to Peru is the perfect introduction to South America.

Why travel to Peru

While the city of Cuzco and the dramatic Inca site of Machu Picchu should be included in any first-time itinerary, we always try to pair them with something more off the beaten track to create a truly unforgettable luxury trip to Peru.

On our tailor-made holidays in Peru we can arrange for you to experience treks which most do not know about, unlock private access to museums, plan leisurely lunches in quirky locations and Amazon expeditions with world-class naturalist guides. Our network of contacts makes pretty much anything possible.

 

With our expert planning, you can take a private trek to remote villages and ruins in the Sacred Valley, ride on horseback to visit the condors in the spectacular Colca Canyon, travel by luxury train through Andean landscapes and also spend time on the magical islands of Lake Titicaca or in a remote Amazonian lodge.
