Intercontinental flight. Upon arrival in Lima, meeting at the airport with our correspondent and transfer to the hotel. Night at the hotel.

After breakfast, transfer to the airport of Lima in good time for boarding the flight to Cusco. Upon arrival, meeting at the airport with our local representative and transfer to the hotel. The afternoon will be free and dedicated to rest, to allow a gradual adaptation to the altitude. We recommend eating very light. Night at the hotel.

After breakfast, we will visit the San Pedro market accompanied by our guide, to discover Andean flavors, colors, and traditions. Next, we will explore the Inca ruins in the surroundings of Cusco, Sacsayhuamán, Qenqo, Puka Pukara, and Tambomachay, to then continue with the visit to Qoricancha, the Temple of the Sun. Free afternoon. In the evening, we will take a guided walk in the historic center of Cusco, discovering its most hidden and fascinating side, among legends, myths, ghosts, and mysterious tales. Night at the hotel.

Today, with our guide and private transport, we will set off to discover the Sacred Valley of the Incas. The first stop will be Chinchero, where we will visit the Temple of the Rainbow. We will continue towards Moray, an extraordinary example of Inca engineering and ancient agricultural laboratory, to then reach Maras, with its spectacular community-managed salt pans, still active today after over a thousand years and immersed in a breathtaking landscape. Finally, we will continue towards Ollantaytambo, the only Inca village still inhabited, an extraordinary example of urban planning. In the afternoon we will take the train to Aguas Calientes, gateway to Machu Picchu. Night at the hotel.

Today we will realize the dream of a lifetime: from Aguas Calientes we will go up by bus to Machu Picchu, the legendary “lost city”. This archaeological site, famous for its ruins and the view over the Urubamba valley, is a UNESCO World Heritage site and one of the seven wonders of the modern world. The private guided visit (about 2 and a half hours) will reveal to you the history of this unique place. The most adventurous will be able to climb independently Huayna Picchu, Machu Picchu Mountain, or Huchuy Picchu. In the afternoon train to Ollantaytambo (or Poroy) and transfer by bus with other tourists to Cusco. Night at the hotel.

Departure at dawn for the Rainbow Mountain of Palccoyo (100 km from Cusco), still little visited by mass tourism. With private vehicle and guide, after a 4-hour journey and a stop for breakfast, we will start the walk between 4,700 and 4,900 meters. The route takes about an hour and a half and offers spectacular views of the Rainbow Mountain. We will explore a evocative stone “forest” with a view over the “Red Valley”. Lunch and return to Cusco in the evening. Night at the hotel.

Note: as an alternative to Palccoyo, it is possible to opt for Vinicunca. However, we remind that the route to Vinicunca is more strenuous, reaching up to 5,100 meters and the site is often very crowded. For a more authentic, intimate, and relaxed experience, we suggest Palccoyo.

Today we will travel, accompanied by other tourists, to Puno (about a 10-hour journey). The tourist bus (equipped with heating, air conditioning, chemical toilet, and with a Spanish/English guide) will make a few stops: the 17th-century church of Andahuaylillas, the Temple of Wiracocha in Raqchi, and the Museum of Pukara. Buffet lunch included in Sicuani. Upon arrival in Puno, meeting at the bus station with our local representative and transfer to the hotel. Night at the hotel.

After breakfast, we head to the port and embark on a boat to Uros floating islands, located north of Puno’s bay. Then we reach Amantani island where we have lunch and spend the afternoon discovering the island. Dinner and night with a local family.

After breakfast we go towards Taquile, the biggest island of the Lake Titicaca. We disembark on the northern side and walk untill the main part of the island. Lunch in Taquile. We get back to Puno in the afternoon. Night in Puno.

In the morning, transfer to the bus station and travel from Puno to La Paz with other tourists. We will cross the border between Peru and Bolivia. Time zone change: Bolivia is one hour ahead of Peru. We will arrive in La Paz in the afternoon, meet our local representative at the bus station, and transfer to the hotel. Night at the hotel.

Free day in La Paz; we recommend not missing the downtown area, between Plaza Murillo and Calle Jaén, with its colonial houses, the Witches’ Market, and the longest and highest cable car network in the world. In the evening, transfer to the bus station for an overnight bus journey from La Paz to Uyuni.

Upon our arrival in Uyuni, we will meet our local representative, who will accompany us to the hotel to rest and have breakfast. Afterward, we will begin our tour, visiting as our first stop the “Train Cemetery,” a reminder of the era when Uyuni was Bolivia’s central railway hub. We will then head toward Colchani, stopping at a local artisan market. Next, we will enter the Salar de Uyuni to visit its salt monuments before traversing this immense white desert to Incahuasi Island, famous for its giant cacti. Here, we can hike to the top of the island to enjoy a 360-degree view of the salt flat. In the afternoon, we will continue our journey heading south across the desert until we reach the village, where we will have dinner and spend the night in a shelter.

We will begin the day by passing through the small Chiguana salt flat, then cross the old railway connecting Uyuni to the Chilean ports. We will observe the Ollagüe volcano, which is still active, before taking the road leading to the lagoons, which we will visit one after another: Laguna Cañapa, Laguna Hedionda, and Laguna Honda. Next, we will cross the Siloli Desert, where we will visit the Stone Tree before reaching the famous Laguna Colorada, populated by thousands of pink flamingos. We will spend the night in a shelter in the village of Huayllajara.

We will depart very early to reach the “Sol de Mañana” geysers at sunrise—at nearly five thousand meters high—during their moment of peak activity. Then, we will head to the Polques hot springs, where we will have time to bathe in the outdoor pools. Afterward, we will visit the Salvador Dalí Desert with its surreal landscapes. From this point on, we will begin our return journey toward Uyuni, passing through the “Valle de las Rocas” (Valley of the Rocks). We will arrive in Uyuni in the late afternoon and, in the evening, board the overnight bus back to La Paz.

Upon arrival, meet our local representative at the bus station and transfer to the hotel with a room available for your use. At the prearranged time, transfer to the airport for your intercontinental flight.

    Beautiful trip organized perfectly We had a wonderful experience, perfectly organized and enriched by the contribution of the guides Camilo, very kind in welcoming us to Cusco, and David, who accompanied us on the subsequent stages. What I appreciated most was his frankness in telling us about Peru, helping us to observe and understand a reality deeply different from our own through his perspective. It certainly enriched our trip from a human and cultural point of view. We absolutely recommend this experience!

    Peru has entered our hearts, thanks to PerùEtico Usually I organize trips by myself, and it is a part of the trip that I love: I want to choose everything and leave nothing to chance. This year, for a series of reasons, I decided to rely on an agency for the trip to Peru with my sister, and I could not have made a better choice. The thing I loved most is that PerùEtico built the trip exactly as I would have organized it, following my idea of travel. In August we experienced 15 intense days. We started from Lima and Cusco, then Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca and the Colca Canyon, up to Arequipa, Huacachina and Paracas. It was a trip that made us fall in love with this country. All the guides, whom we met on our path, were always wonderful: knowledgeable, passionate and capable of telling about their land with a contagious affection. The organization was impeccable. The app was our compass: day-by-day schedule, times, tickets, and accommodations always accessible. Next to the app was Gianni, who assisted us throughout the trip, via Whatsapp, with rare availability and kindness. Any question was immediately answered. Thank you very much Gianni, you were our point of reference! We did not have a single problem. The transfers were always punctual, the guides wonderful, and we felt followed at every moment. Some experiences particularly impressed us. First of all Cusco: we fell in love with the city and its surroundings (do not miss the evening walk Myths and legends with Camilo, who will make you discover a fascinating and mysterious side of the city). Then the private tour in the Sacred Valley, with an extraordinary guide who told us about every place with passion. The Palccoyo Rainbow Mountain: we really appreciated this choice, because it is less beaten by mass tourism and for this reason even more exciting. Finally, the two days in the Colca Canyon, managed to perfection. A special mention goes to Taquile. We spent two days on Lake Titicaca hosted by a local family, sharing their daily life. It is the experience that remained most in our hearts. We loved everything about this trip. Peru is an incredible country and the Peruvian people are fantastic, welcoming, and smiling. PerùEtico knew how to let us experience it in the most beautiful way. We recommend it to anyone who dreams of this trip: you will be in excellent hands. Heartfelt thanks to the whole team! Emanuela and Elisa

    Excellent experience, beyond expectations!! Highly recommended! We organized a personalized 15-day itinerary with them, which included 4 days of the Inca Trail. The organization was fantastic (in Italian), complete and detailed, with many tips derived from their long experience and with easy and friendly interactions (Emanuele is the best!). Very detailed and transparent quote (and final statement), including the breakdown of costs. He advised us to spend a day with a family on Lake Titicaca, and it was truly worth it. One of the best memories of the trip! Before departure, everything was uploaded to the app: the highly detailed program (appointments, pickup times, names and phone numbers of the guides) as well as all the necessary tickets for the tour, information sheets for the booked hotels, tips on restaurants, the itinerary, luggage, etc. We were then looked after on-site by Camilo, a friendly, comforting, and constant presence who assisted us day and night (via WhatsApp, by phone, and in person!) and, above all, managed critical issues in a very proactive manner, providing us with a series of alternatives and always proving willing to understand and accommodate all our needs. The Inca Trail was closed due to bad weather, and we had to do the short itinerary (2 days). Camilo promptly proposed a series of alternatives, reorganizing the bookings and the transfers of our luggage in an optimal manner, according to the new route. In Cusco, he made himself available to spend time with us (not planned) and was a fantastic guide, telling us about the peculiarities of the city and its history, which allowed us to truly appreciate the city and the Peruvian people (do not miss his \"Myths and Legends\" guided tour). I usually organize my trips on my own, so I was able to particularly appreciate their meticulous assistance in all phases, their advice and proposals, and, above all, the passion and experience they demonstrate in their work! Truly great! Highly recommended!

    Peru with PerúEtico We visited Peru in August 2026, with a 2-week trip organized by PerúEtico. Family trip for 4 people. PerúEtico supported us with attention from the very beginning during the trip planning phase. All of our questions received an immediate response and always within 24 hours. PeruEtico gave us advice on how to customize our visit, and in particular, Machu Picchu. During our stay in Peru, we were constantly in contact via WhatsApp with Camilo, who was always available to answer any of our questions. The first few days in the Cusco area, we had a guide in Italian dedicated to us and attentive to making sure we followed the visit schedule while respecting our pace. Even in cases of unforeseen events, PeruEtico supported us in a timely manner to try not to compromise the travel itinerary. We recommend choosing PeruEtico if you are thinking about visiting Peru, a wonderful trip!!!!

    Great job, precise, attentive. Highly recommended! We used Perù Etico for a tailor-made trip in August to Peru. They customized everything based on our needs. We dealt with Emanuele for the quote and trip planning part and then with Gianni regarding the on-site assistance. Both very precise, fast, quick, and attentive to the customer's needs. Top-notch 24/7 on-site assistance. Consult Perù Etico, they are truly good.

But a special thanks goes to PerùEtico, which allowed us to create a perfect tailor-made tour far from the usual standardized tourist routes. They allowed us to live unique experiences with local families and businesses, letting us savor Peruvian culture in all its facets. We return home happy from this fantastic adventure! Thank you PerùEtico!

    PerùEtico for an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend anyone planning a trip to the wonderful land of Peru to rely on Perù Etico. Thanks to Perù Etico, it was possible for us to visit many different places in 15 days, moving through Peru with an impeccable organization of time and transportation. The 24/7 assistance from a dedicated person is very reliable, as well as the detailed travel itinerary accompanied by recommendations for the best restaurants at the various stops (which we enjoyed so much!!! the food in Peru is fantastic!!). Thanks to the application provided by Perù Etico, you always have all the necessary information at your fingertips to travel and organize yourself during the various stops. We will definitely rely on this tour operator again for other trips to Latin America. A thank you to the whole staff, to Emanuele for the assistance in the initial phase of planning the trip, and to Gianni for his exquisite availability during the trip. Thanks to Perù Etico, the travel experience was authentic and genuine, just as I had wished!

A nice experience in the Amazon and sleeping at a local family's home on the island of Taquile. We especially thank Emanuele for the initial preparation of the trip and Camilo for the support on-site. A nice experience to recommend..

    Fantastic Peru Together with my wife, I took a 12-day trip to Peru organized by Perù Etico. The trip was planned and customized by Emanuele in relation to our needs and requests. Emanuele proved to be a very empathetic person and extremely quick to respond to my emails in which I asked for information or other things. The organization of the tour was done very well, and all the bureaucratic part was also handled in a quick and efficient way. A very interesting idea is to create an always-updated app within which everything you need is included: itinerary, tickets, hotels, etc. etc. During the tour, we had constant and direct support from Camilo, who proved to be a very helpful person and attentive to managing the practical activities of the trip as well as any specific needs. Kudos also to the guides and drivers who supported us on this trip, knowledgeable, sociable, and very helpful, in particular to Louis and Edwin with whom we spent most of the time. The trip was overall very beautiful and interesting. If I have to indicate what we liked most, I would say Machu Picchu and the day-and-a-half experience in the home of a local family on the island of Taquile. Elisabeth and her family treated us very well and let us live an authentic experience on this beautiful island. Cristian

    A Peru to be experienced, not just visited We just returned from a beautiful trip to Peru, organized with great attention and with an itinerary that allowed us to truly discover the country. We particularly appreciated the preparation and availability of the guides, always attentive and capable of helping us get to know places, history, and culture in an engaging way. One of the best memories is certainly the day spent with a local family in Taquile: an authentic and very moving experience, which allowed us to get to know their daily life up close and which we will carry with us as one of the most special moments of the trip. Serious and reliable organization, which we definitely recommend!
