Peru simply has it all. Machu Picchu and the Inca trails are among the most impressive on the planet, and everyone in the family will enjoy strolling along the cobbled streets of Cusco, exploring the picturesque churches of Arequipa, and exploring the crystal clear waters of Lake Titicaca. Cycling through the Sacred Valley, with its ancient ruins, friendly villages and houses covered in pink bougainvillea, is a family favorite for even the youngest members of the family.
It is true that Peru with the kids, ticks all your boxes, even those you didn't know you had!
The different activities keep children engaged, so that they will not get bored. They will learn about llamas and alpacas and be able to tell stories about climbing into the rainforest canopy and fishing for piranhas. There's no end to the adventure!
The Peru itinerary we create for you is bespoke, which means it is tailored specifically to your family's needs. We use our personal knowledge, and the expertise of our team of regional experts, to make sure your dream trip is tailor-made to your requirements.
