Peru Small Group Trips

Our guide Lyss Torres was extremely helpful and knowledgeable. She made the trip so wonderful. She went out of her way to help when things went wrong, lost luggage on arrival at Lima. We couldn’t have managed without her help as LATAM airlines were very unhelpful. There were long journeys but we were prepared and they were broken down into acceptable sections. The overnight bus was perfectly okay and I slept most of it. Overall an amazing experience and I would recommend it, just read the itinerary in detail.

In three weeks we had a comprehensive tour of Peru with an excellent leader, Julio. Diverse landscapes, fabulous food, friendly people and amazing weather. We learned so much about the country and are already planning to return.

A really comprehensive, interesting tour of Peru but a bit rushed in places and exhausting. In particular, we had no time at all in Lima and not enough time in Nazca. Flights to Peru with Avianca are often delayed (ours was by 24 hours) so I'd advise scheduling an extra day at least at the beginning of this trip to relax and see something of Lima.

Big Shoutout to Our Leader- Lyss who was just amazing. She was right there for everything and was very knowledgeable about all the places that we visited. She made my first explore experience amazing. Really loved this trip and would definitely recommend it to a friend 100%.

Just returned from the most fantastic holiday to Peru with Explore.Everything went perfectly and I was lucky enough to share my experience with the nicest group of people( 11 of us) you could ever hope to spend time with. Our Explore leader ,Erikson, was just fantastic. He was so organised,kind interesting and just a really nice person all round.He showed such care for all our group and because of this we all achieved the 4 day Inca trail to reach Macchu Pittchu which was absolutely fantastic. Our brilliant team of porters ,cooks and deputy guide Emile were excellent. I cannot recommend this trip enough- it was the experience of a lifetime. I went 3 days earlier and really recommend doing this as Cusco is so wonderful with so much to see and do.It also felt incredibly safe on my own.

One of my best ever adventures, made special by a caring group and Julio our experienced and knowledgeable guide who was full of enthusiasm and cared about everyone. My top highlights were Taquile Island, particularly the singing and dancing around the fire, and camping above the clouds on the Inca Trail. Other high points included the Lima v Arequippa football match, Huacachina Oasis, the floating islands, the hot springs and Ollantayambo.
