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.

The Inca Trail hike was beautiful and so fascinating and our Aspiring Adventures guides and crew were great. The mountains near Machu Picchu were as beautiful and majestic a setting as anywhere I have ever seen. The entire experience was amazing. This was our second South American expedition with Aspiring Adventures and we will definitely use them on additional adventures soon.

The overall experience exceeded my expectations. Awesome people, awesome food, awesome experience every where I went. Loved it. I got to stop and marvel at llamas sitting in the middle of the road, and to share friendly greetings with locals along the way. Enjoyed scrumptious picnic lunches and marveled as giant condors flew over head. Enjoyed every second and feel I got to experience the 'real' Peru. This trip was totally the whole package. Thanks so much Aspiring Adventures.

Hi Steve and Katy, thanks for a wonderful trip, we had a great time and would recommend Aspiring to anyone considering visiting South America. Special mention to Luis and Ronald (Charlie one and Charlie two). They went the xtra mile for us, two fine young men!

– Rob and Lynne K.

We have taken small/personal trips in Costa Rica and Namibia previously. I have had guided experiences with work in Egypt and India. Aspiring Adventures was definitely at the top of all aspects. Katy created a fantastic, personalized experience utilizing high quality transport, nice accommodations and food, and great and well educated guides at a reasonable and competitive price. We will definitely utilize them in the future for memorable, stress-free personalized adventures.
