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.

I highly recommend Aspiring Adventures. Working with Katy was a pleasure and she customized our trip to meet our needs, desires and time frames. The guides were great eliminating the normal stresses of travelling by having everything arranged for us. And they were all friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable.
If you are looking for someone to handle all the particulars of an adventure travel trip, but still be able to give input on what you like and don't like, AA is the way to go!

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!

Wilhen and Luis were both incredible! Easily made the trip infinitely better! Wilhen's knowledge of biking and the trails along with Luis's knowledge of all the history and sites was perfect. Their synergy and camaraderie made it feel like we were on a trip with friends and not just a guided tour as clients. In the end I feel like not only did I have a great adventure with the biking/camping, but I also received an invaluable lesson on Peru's culture/ history that I would never have had without them. I cannot say enough good things about them.

Aldo's passion and love of his country, his culture, his knowledge of history and his role as a guide was of the highest standard. His innate sense of timing enabled us to experience the absolute most we could at every location and activity we participated in. This experience is one none of us will ever forget. Aldo is a brother to us.
