Lima doesn’t ease you in—it pulls you straight into the rhythm. Peru’s capital pulses with contrasts, where centuries-old facades stand beside bold modern design, and every street seems to lead to something worth tasting.

Touch down at Lima’s airport (LIM), where your journey officially begins. From there, you’ll be greeted and driven through the city as it hums around you, arriving at your hotel to settle in and shake off the travel.

As the sun dips toward the Pacific, the adventure kicks off in style. Gather for a welcome dinner perched above the coastline, where waves crash below and the city lights begin to flicker on—your first taste of what’s ahead.

(Welcome Dinner Included)

Day 2 in Lima wakes up your senses fast. The morning kicks off with a deep dive into Peru’s culinary soul—22 distinct tastings that move from bold to unexpected, each one telling its own story. Sip rich organic coffee, sample just-picked fruits bursting with flavor, and wander through a lively local market where the colors and energy are just as memorable as the food. You will also learn to prepare Peru’s signature ceviche, bright with citrus and layered with fresh coastal ingredients.

Once your appetite is more than satisfied, the focus shifts from flavor to creativity. Head toward the city’s artistic pulse, where expression spills onto streets and walls. Walk along the Malecón de Miraflores, with the Pacific stretching endlessly beside you, waves crashing below as the ocean air follows every step. Pause at Parque del Amor, where vibrant mosaics wrap around the space and the iconic El Beso sculpture captures a timeless moment.

The journey continues into Barranco, a district that feels like a living canvas. Drift past colorful murals, historic homes, and tucked-away cafés that invite you to slow down and stay awhile.

As the day winds down, the evening is yours—whether that means chasing another unforgettable meal, finding live music, or simply soaking in Lima after dark.

(Breakfast and 22- course tasting included)

The day begins before sunrise - an early start that quickly proves worth it. Leaving Lima behind, the coastline unfolds as you make your way toward Paracas, where the Pacific sets the stage for something unforgettable.

Board a boat and head out to the Ballestas Islands, often called Peru’s version of the Galápagos. Over the next two hours, the ocean comes alive—sea lions sprawl across the rocks, penguins shuffle along the edges, and flocks of seabirds fill the sky with constant motion. It’s raw and completely captivating.

Back on land, pause for lunch before the landscape shifts once again. The blue horizon disappears, replaced by rolling desert. Welcome to Huacachina, an oasis tucked between towering dunes that feel almost unreal.

Then the adrenaline kicks in. Strap into a dune buggy as it surges up steep ridges and drops down the other side, sand flying in every direction. Grab a board, take a breath, and glide down the slopes as the sun sinks behind the hills, casting everything in a warm golden glow.

By nightfall, you’ll make the journey back to Lima—tired, sandy, and still riding the high of a day that packed in more than most trips do in a week.

(Included: Breakfast and Lunch)

The next chapter of your Peruvian journey begins with a short flight to Cusco. As the landscape shifts beneath you, the Andes rise to meet you, signaling a slower, more intentional pace ahead. This is time we allow our bodies to adjust to the high altitudes.

From Cusco, you’ll continue into the Sacred Valley, where time seems to stretch and the air feels different—crisp, quiet, and grounding. This is where you ease into the altitude, giving your body time to adjust while soaking in the surroundings. Lunch is served in a serene garden setting, tucked into the heart of the valley, where the only rush is the breeze moving through the trees.

The rest of the day is yours to unwind. Your stay is set at a peaceful lodge just outside the town of Urubamba, surrounded by mountains and open sky. Take advantage of the spa, melt into a massage, or relax in the jacuzzi or sauna as your body resets.

As evening settles in, you can choose your pace—enjoy a cozy dinner at the hotel or head into town to explore local spots and flavors in Urubamba. Either way, the night is calm, unhurried, and exactly what you need before the adventure continues.

(Included Breakfast and Lunch)

The Sacred Valley invites you to slow things down. After a few adventure-packed days, the morning is yours to ease into. Sleep in, take your time, and enjoy a relaxed start without any rush.

Later, you’ll head out for a midday experience that offers a deeper connection to the region. Visit a traditional Andean village, where daily life unfolds much as it has for generations. You’ll gain insight into local farming practices, community traditions, and the rhythms that shape life in the mountains.

This half-day outing leaves plenty of room for the evening to unfold however you choose. Return to the lodge and settle back into its calm surroundings, whether that means unwinding at the spa, finding a quiet corner to relax, or simply taking in the stillness of the valley.

This day is intentionally unhurried, giving you the space to recharge and experience the Sacred Valley at your own pace.

(Included Breakfast and Lunch)

The journey toward Machu Picchu begins in Ollantaytambo, a town where the past doesn’t feel distant—it’s built into every stone beneath your feet. Narrow pathways wind through centuries-old walls, leading to a towering fortress that still watches over the valley.

Before continuing on, you’ll experience a traditional Pachamanca feast—an ancient cooking method where meats, potatoes, and vegetables are slow-cooked beneath hot stones in the earth. The result is rich, smoky, and deeply rooted in Andean tradition, enjoyed in an open setting surrounded by sweeping mountain views.

Then it’s time to board the Vistadome Observatory Train. As it winds through the Sacred Valley, glass ceilings and panoramic windows open up the landscape in every direction—rivers rushing alongside the tracks, cliffs rising above, and greenery closing in as you move deeper into the Andes.

By the time you arrive in Aguas Calientes, the gateway town to Machu Picchu, the anticipation is undeniable. You’ll settle in for the night here, resting up for the moment you’ve been building toward.

(Included Breakfast and Lunch)

The day begins early, with a sense of anticipation that’s impossible to ignore. As the first light brushes the peaks, you’ll board the bus from Aguas Calientes, winding upward into the heart of Machu Picchu.

Step into the ancient citadel with an expert guide, discovering its secrets and stories as you explore terraces, temples, and ceremonial spaces. Pause at the most breathtaking viewpoints—perfect spots to capture memories that feel almost otherworldly, where stone meets sky and history whispers from every corner.

After soaking in the magic of Machu Picchu, you’ll descend by bus back to Aguas Calientes and board the Vistadome train for a scenic journey through the Sacred Valley. The passing mountains, rivers, and lush landscapes provide a final, stunning farewell to this legendary region.

Upon arrival, transfer to Cusco’s historical center and check into your hotel, where cobblestone streets, colonial architecture, and lively plazas set the stage for the final leg of our adventure.

(Included: Breakfast and Lunch)

Our final day in Cusco is entirely yours to shape. Wander the cobblestone streets, soak in the lively plazas, or choose from a selection of group excursions designed for every level of adventure.

For those seeking a challenge, embark on a hike, ride ATVs, or horseback to the summit of Vinicunca Rainbow Mountain. If you prefer a gentler pace, the Palccoyo Rainbow Mountains offer a serene alternative: three colorful peaks, a peaceful trail, and the company of roaming alpacas and llamas. Less crowded and easier to navigate, Palccoyo still delivers sweeping Andean vistas that feel like a dream.

Other options that may interest you: take a hands-on chocolate workshop, learn the craft of Andean weaving, or enjoy a leisurely walk with alpacas. (Some excursions may require a minimum number of participants.)

As the day winds down, gather for a farewell celebration. One last evening together, featuring a spectacular dinner accompanied by live folkloric music and dance, bringing the rhythm, color, and spirit of Peru into your final night. It’s a festive, unforgettable close to an extraordinary journey.

(Included: Breakfast)

After an early breakfast in Cusco, it’s time to take a flight back to Lima. From there, you can catch a late-evening or night flight home, or linger a little longer to soak in Lima’s vibrant streets, lively plazas, and unforgettable flavors.

Though this chapter of your Peruvian adventure comes to a close, it’s far from goodbye...think of it as “see you soon.” Your memories from these mountains, deserts, and ancient cities are just the beginning, and soon you’ll be back on another incredible LTV journey, ready for the next adventure together!
