Imagine stepping into a land where lush mountains kiss the skies, ancient ruins whisper stories of the past, and vibrant cultures dance around you. Welcome to Peru, a country that embodies history, mystery, and adventure. Whether you’re seeking private Peru trips or all-inclusive Peru vacation packages, this South American gem offers a myriad of experiences that promise to captivate your soul.

Embark on Unique Private Experiences in Peru

Discover a side of Peru that few travelers see by indulging in private experiences tailored just for you. Consider a personalized archeological tour that will lead you through the timeworn stones of Machu Picchu at sunrise, a serene moment available to only a select few. Imagine wandering through the mist-shrouded Sacred Valley with an expert guide by your side, who unravels the secrets of the Incan Empire with each step.

For a touch of natural wonder, privately explore the Amazon Rainforest. Here, secluded lodges set the stage for bespoke jungle excursions, offering a chance to encounter exotic wildlife and untouched landscapes. These private trips allow you to connect deeply with nature while enjoying luxurious comfort, far from the usual tourist paths.

Captivating Cultural Encounters

Private experiences in Peru are not limited to natural and historical sites. Engage deeply with Peruvian culture through exclusive encounters with local artisans in Lima or Cusco. Participate in intimate workshops where you can learn the art of weaving or pottery from masters upholding generations of tradition. These private experiences provide unique insights into the rich tapestry of Peruvian culture and craft.

Don’t miss out on dining privately under the Andean stars, where you can savour traditional Peruvian flavours crafted by renowned local chefs. Picture yourself amidst terraced farmlands, dining alfresco with views that stretch across landscapes painted by ancient hands. Each bite is a taste of the region's history and a memory etched into your journey.

Peru Vacation Packages Made Personal

Curating the perfect Peru vacation packages means crafting journeys that reflect your interests and pace. Whether you’re drawn to adrenaline-pumping adventures or relaxing wellness retreats, Peru offers a spectrum of opportunities.

Adventurous souls might find themselves trekking the rugged beauty of the Cordillera Blanca or white-water rafting along the tumultuous Urubamba River. In contrast, those seeking relaxation could unwind on the tranquil beaches of Mancora or indulge in rejuvenating spa treatments influenced by ancient Andean practices.

The beauty of private Peru trips lies in the ability to tailor every detail. Work with travel experts to ensure your itinerary includes both the bucket-list attractions and the hidden treasures that speak to your heart.

Engage with Local Festivals and Traditions

Timing your travels to coincide with Peru’s vibrant festivals can transform your journey into a celebration. Participate in the dazzling Inti Raymi festival, held each June in Cusco, where traditional music, dance, and pageantry bring the Incan sun god festival to life. Opt for private tours of these festivals to enjoy reserved seating and exclusive behind-the-scenes access to the celebrations.

These experiences offer a window into the Peruvian spirit and ensure that your trip is rich with cultural engagement and personal discovery.

Practical Tips for a Memorable Adventure

  • Climate Considerations: Fortunately, Peru offers diverse climates, from coastal deserts to Andean highlands. Pack layers to accommodate the varying weather.
  • Health and Safety: Vaccinations are recommended for visits to the Amazon. Altitude sickness can affect visitors in high-altitude regions; taking time to acclimatize is essential.
  • Language and Etiquette: While Spanish is predominant, brushing up on a few Quechua phrases can enrich your interactions with locals.
  • Technology and Connectivity: Many rural areas lack consistent internet access, which can be refreshing as it encourages immersion in your surroundings.

Let your Peruvian journey be more than just a vacation. With tailored private experiences and thoughtfully designed vacation packages, etch your own story into the ancient landscapes and vibrant cultures of this breathtaking nation. Whether it’s through the quiet whispers of history in sacred ruins or the exuberant celebrations of today’s traditions, Peru promises an expedition unlike any other.

For a unique experience visit an indigenous village high in the Andes for a Pachamama ceremony. I was fortunate to participate in one and the warmth of the people and how simple they lived, really touched my heart.

May to October is the best time to visit as it is the dry season with sunny days, clear skies, ideal for trekking and enjoy the landscape. However like in all Latin countries, the weather is unpredictable, so be ready if any rain show up during a sunny day

Everyone should make sure they try a Pisco sour - It's Peru’s national cocktail—a smooth, citrusy, and slightly foamy drink made with pisco, a type of grape brandy. It’s both refreshing and strong, with a sweet-tart balance and a signature foamy top from egg white.

Allan Birkett at Goway has been an absolute godsend! Over the past year, he has helped me plan numerous vacations—especially honeymoons—and has been an incredible partner every step of the way. He is always quick to respond, patient with my clients' frequent changes, and goes above and beyond to help whenever an issue comes up. His knowledge, professionalism, and dedication make my job as a travel advisor so much easier. I truly appreciate everything Allan does and highly recommend him to anyone looking for exceptional service. Thank you, Allan, for always being thereBrooke Echols

Our 2-week trip to Normandy, Switzerland and Italy after we disembarked from the Queen Mary 2 in Southampton in mid-May was superb. Michael Keon did an amazing job of putting together highlights for us to see and visit with the short time we had. All the train reservations, private and small group tours and transportations were very well coordinated, on time, and usually exceeded our expectations. Drivers were courteous and knowledgeable. Mike did a wonderful job getting everything coordinated, in spite of our almost “last minute” booking. I booked a month-long trip through GOWAY back in 1989 for Australia, New Zealand and Fiji, and they were superb then. So I tried them again, and found the entire organization to be even better. Mike was quick to respond to any questions that came up regarding booksings and times, regardless of the 6-hour time difference. Just superb! Although we had a nasty experience in Milan, GOWAY was very responsive and saw to our requests and our needs. Again, Michael Keon is the person who coordinated our travel. I will ask for Mike when I travel again with GOWAY. I recommend GOWAY highly. PJ Wheeler

Goway helped plan our two week trip to Peru and they (Virginia in particular) did a great job. The on-site logistics with Condor Travel went very smoothly, and the trip exceeded our expectations overall. They proactively suggested changes to our initial itinerary which were welcomed. I would recommend them and would work with them again in the future.Kate O'Neill

I recently went on an African Safari with my brother-in-law and sister and another couple who I knew. The entire experience was absolutely unbelievable. The complete details were flawlessly coordinated from the transfers to the breathtaking lodges. Our guides Peter showed us Kenya and Maulid Tanzania were very knowledgeable and very sharp eyes for finding the animals. We were able to see the animals up close, learn a lot about the people, birds , vegetation etc. We had several sundowners in the bush really added to a magical experience with beautiful sunsets. I would highly recommend Goway to all my friends, they will not be disappointed. Thank you to Bijal for the excellent African Safari that you put together for us. You were wonderful.Nancy Hay
