Uncover the magic of two of South America's most breathtaking destinations on this extraordinary small-group journey through Ecuador and Peru. From ancient cities steeped in history to otherworldly landscapes and awe-inspiring world wonders, this adventure is filled with unforgettable moments. Begin in Quito, Ecuador’s charming capital nestled in the Andes, before flying to Baltra Island, the gateway to the legendary Galápagos Islands. Cross into Santa Cruz Island, where you'll walk among giant tortoises in their natural habitat, explore lush highlands, and marvel at dramatic volcanic landscapes. Cruise the turquoise waters around Puerto Ayora, snorkeling at La Lobería with playful sea lions, graceful sea turtles, and vibrant tropical fish. Continue your exploration with visits to North Seymour and Bachas Islands, teeming with seabirds, iguanas, and untouched beaches. Next, fly to Lima, Peru's dynamic capital, where colonial grandeur meets contemporary culture in neighborhoods like Miraflores, San Isidro, and the coastal Parque del Amor. Soar over the Andes to Cusco, the historic heart of the Inca Empire. Wind through the Sacred Valley, where ancient agricultural terraces and Andean villages line the route to Machu Picchu — the mystical Lost City of the Incas, perched high among misty peaks. Back in Cusco, walk in the footsteps of emperors at the Temple of the Sun and the mighty Sacsayhuaman Fortress, where immense stones speak of a glorious past. From the pristine Galápagos Islands to the timeless ruins of the Andes, this journey blends nature, history, and culture into an experience that will linger in your memory forever.

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.

The trip was really good with lots of standout places and experiences. Our trip manager was brilliant. He was friendly and knowledgeable and made everything easy. Some of the accommodation wasn’t the best (poor showers, uncomfortable beds, no safety lock box, no elevator) but for the most part acceptable.
