Peru tours that delve deeper

You’re a thoughtful traveller, seeking an experience that’s as authentic and out of the ordinary as you are. You want to be part of the picture – not just another tourist snapping a photo through a bus window. You seek to transcend the obvious, meet real people and get a taste of local life.
You’ve come to the right place.

Age, fitness, available time, and past travel experience are irrelevant. You aspire to a real experience: that’s what matters.

Biking in the Andes caused my heart to fly. Putting into words the magic of this trip is a challenge. The bike riding and the scenery were amazing (and I live 30 minutes from the Rockies in CO!). The magic goes deeper--- I learned about the local population, the Inca history, the natural world, the foods and more from our incredible guide, Luis. The other guides and staff were also amazing: Will, Josh, Walter, Ruben, Johan, Abraham....they all felt like family; we could joke them and totally trusted them.

Wow! It's hard to express how amazing our trip in Peru was! The festival at Paucartambo is sensational - we'll remember that experience for a long time to come! Thanks Steve and Katy for putting everything together - we simply couldn't have done it without you.

Absolutely 5-star. I didn't know what to expect, but Aspiring Adventures exceeded my wildest dreams. Great guides, great biking, great scenery, great encouragement, great mini-connections with natives. Loved biking downhill in the Andes the most. I also enjoyed the two nights we camped. And of course Machu Picchu.
