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 Peru Classic was such a great way to travel, learn about the amazing history and have plenty of fun and adventure along the way. Luis was great with the kids and we really appreciated his knowledge and passion for Peru, its history and indigenous culture. Thanks for giving our family an experience that we'll never forget.

– Anne M.

The trip was wonderfully organised by Steve and Katy. The excursions chosen had mountain biking and sightseeing combined and were truly wonderful. I would not hesitate to go on another Aspiring Adventures trip and would heartily recommended them.

Thank you again for a truly wonderful trip. We loved everything about it...the beautiful sights, delicious food, wonderful accommodations, fun activities that appealed to every age in my family and of course our phenomenal guide Aldo who went above and beyond always. The trip was beautifully planned and everything went smoothly. Appreciated Katy's brilliant insights. Best wishes to you and thanks again so much for the trip of a life time.
