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.

We create life-changing travel experiences.

Intimate group tours that take you beneath the surface. Custom private trips limited only by your imagination. Personal service that exceeds all expectations.

The level of personal attention was far better than other guided trips I’ve taken in the past. Organization, flexibility, communication are key words to describe the pre-trip experience. You helped us make the connection with the 'real' Peru, not the one that tourists generally see. If all of your guides are remotely as good as Aldo you are very lucky.

This trip exceeded my expectations from the riding to the wealth of knowledge and passion from the guides. The food was some of the best I've had and the places we traveled to were just beautiful!

– Beth F (travled in September 2022)

Looked after very well and a great experience. The guides were awesome! There wasn't anything I could pick that needed to be improved on. Have had an excellent adventure, amazing insight into Peru native culture and amazing mountain biking - feel renewed and remotivated and will definitely go on another Aspiring Adventures tour in the future.

– Jon D.

This was a private trip, which was important for us, as we're not into big groups. We appreciated Luis's experience and knowledge and his total handling of every single detail. We're pretty adventurous travelers - usually handling all details ourselves. But the luxury of doing no planning and having our very own guide was pretty addictive.
