Absolutely amazing trip. Stunning scenery on every day. The highlight was definitely watching the sunset and then star gazing at the salt flats in Bolivia, but so many others too - geysers, brilliantly coloured mountains & lagoons, flamingos, vicuna / llama / alpaca, volcanos, wine tasting - all truly memorable experiences. We extended for a couple of extra nights in Buenos Aires and one in Santiago, which were well worth doing, esp in BA. We've always had great Explore tour leaders, but Carolina could be the best - knowledgeable, enthusiastic and a great sense of humour - she really enhanced the trip and became a good friend of us all. A special mention to all the local guides too, Jazmin, Wilbur & Romina who were excellent and our team of drivers too.

I would definitely recommend this trip for those who are seeking adventure! Each day we say different cities and sites (Huacachina Desert, Nazca Lines, Arequipa, Puno/Lake Titicaca, Cusco, Machu Picchu, and Rainbow Mountain), which are totally the experiences. The only downsides of the trip were the overnight bus due to its discomfort of trying to rest as well as the bumpy roads whenever I had to use the toilet on the bus. Also, make sure to bring enough medical supplements with you and buy enough coca supplements (mints, candies, leaves, tea) to adjust to the altitude or any higher elevations! I did get some headaches and dizziness, but that's kinda normal and to be expected.
Hike, bike, raft and paddle your way through the ancient sites and natural landscapes of Peru – home of the Incas. Tick Machu Picchu off your bucket list – one of the famed Seven Wonders of the World – with trekking and train options suitable for all levels. Go on a mountain biking experience from Cusco to Pisac, passing by rivers, fertile valleys and archaeological sites. Stand-up paddleboard along the serene waters of Piuray Lake, surrounded by the mountains. Raft through Grade 2 and 3 rapids on the Urubamba River in Ollantaytambo and hike to lookout points high above sea level overlooking the multicultural cities of diverse Peru – this is an adventure for the active, the curious and the adventurous!
