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.

Our group of international trekking friends booked a private trip with Aspiring Adventures to trek the Torres del Paine Grand Traverse and kayak in glacial waters on the Serrano River in southern Chile. We had an outstanding and memorable experience. This trip was fantastic and Aspiring Adventures did a wonderful job of planning and executing. We are already arranging our next Peru (or maybe New Zealand) trekking trip with AA.

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!

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.

– Andrea A.

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.
