Honestly one of the best trips I’ve ever been on! Our host Eve was amazing — super friendly, so organised, and just had the best energy. She made everyone feel so comfortable and kept the vibes high the whole time.
We also had Alejandro as a trainee tour guide who was so passionate and knowledgeable.
The itinerary was packed with awesome activities that definitely pushed me out of my comfort zone (in a good way!).
And the group I did it with was incredible — such a fun bunch of people, and I’ve actually made some new friends from it! Would 100% recommend this tour to anyone thinking about it

With a stay in the heart of the jungle, plenty of pisco sours and some hot and heavy hiking on the Inca Trail, this trip is 15 days of exploring, drinking, eating and sweating (nobody said the trail would be easy, but boy is it worth it). Experience the real Amazon in a proper jungle lodge, follow in the footsteps of ancient people on the Inca Trail to Wonder of the World Machu Picchu and stay with a local family who live in a mud-brick house on the shores of Lake Titicaca. Hit the nightlife in Cusco, sail down the Amazon River in the pitch-black of night (look out for jaguars!) and experience an I’m-so-far-from-home moment with some new friends on an epic trek through Peru to Bolivia.
