The Classis Peru trip is full-on, covering a lot of ground in just two weeks. The key sights are there, but also lots of unexpected minor sites which became highlights too.
The quality of guide will make or break this kind of tour because there is quite a bit of travelling and exposure to unfamiliar history. We were extremely well served in this department with Arturo, who was well organised and very knowledgeable, but also kind and funny.
The altitude effects must not be overlooked. Do expect to have a couple of days of feeling unwell, and recognise you may not be able to function with your usual energy and physical ability/stamina.

I will use Gluxe again.
My main criticism was the food. For most meals at restaurants we were offered a special tourist menu - this usually was made up of ceviche or quinoa soup for starters; quinoa salad or lomos saltados for main. On a 16 night itinerary with lunch and dinner included this became very dull and spoilt the holiday. In the end we began to insist on ordering off the full menu. We were quite happy to pay the whole thing ourselves. We cancelled our last night meal as we could not face yet another no choice menu of the same things.
Most of the restaurants had a tourist feel to them, offering the same dishes to various groups of tourists. This was the major disappointment of an. otherwise very special trip.

Amazing experience. Inca trail and homestay were standout highlights. Trip could have been better organised to minimise unnecessary travel. Rainbow mountain was too busy and felt unsustainable (something at odds with the g culture we love).
