ADVENTURE TRAVEL IN PERU

Joining an expedition does not mean having to rough it. As our guests we want your time with us to be as luxurious, relaxing and as enjoyable as possible.

We work closely with Amazonas Explorer, the Peru specialists, owned and operated by Paul Cripps from the UK . Based in Cusco they have over twenty years experience of leading expeditions throughout South America.


'We had the holiday of a lifetime. Everything went incredibly smoothly and we were very impressed by Amazonas Explorer. Our guides, Zac de Ugarte and Elfraïn were just brilliant - they made us feel very special and were, of course, very knowledgeable about Peru's past and present. They were also great fun to be with.
The Inca trail itself was stunning and the porters and organisation were superb. We were felt very well looked after and have got lots of happy memories - and even more photos - from the trek.
In Arequipa, our guide Pilar was great. She tailored the programme to fit what we wanted to do and was attentive and friendly. The driver in Arequipa and Colca was also excellent.
We have recommended Golden Hill Travel and Amazonas Explorer to people, and will continue to do so.'

The number of people on the Inca Trail is restricted to 500 per day - approx 200 tourists and 300 porters and staff. Trekkers must still travel as part of an organised group .............................

This means that it is important to book well in advance to guarantee your permit on the days you require especially in the peak months of June to September.
