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.

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.

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.

– Steve B.

Our trip was absolutely fantastic! Kudos to you and Steve and everyone from Aspiring Adventures! We were amazed at the perfect balance of spectacular natural beauty, exercise (biking, walking), learning about old & new cultures & the salt mines etc, together time, apart time, good food, comfortable and quaint hostels, the hot springs, the cooks and camping, etc. etc. Great everything!

I was amazed by the beauty of the countryside that we rode through. The bikes were great and very well maintained. The guides (Luis and Ronald) were wonderful. I can't remember a time in which I've had guides that were so helpful, friendly and fun, as well as informative. They were always there to ensure we all got the most out of our trip. Overall, I would recommend that if you are in the market for a mountain bike adventure through the beautiful country of Peru, and a visit to Machu Picchu, then this trip is to not be missed. I had a wonderful time!
