Detailed Description

Peru packages are always unique, and this spectacular adventure through Peru won't disappoint.  Your trip to Peru begins with a 9-day customizable tour meant for anyone that has ever wished to be an amateur explorer, a weekend adventurer, wildlife enthusiast, an Amazonian wanderer, or anyone that has ever wished to see the majesty of the Incas and the wonders of the Amazon. Venture into the depths of the Andes to witness the remains of the sensational Inca civilization that spreads throughout the mountainous valley, and cruise along the Amazon Basin to see the unique wildlife living in the trees and climbing through the forest grounds. Your time in Peru will be nothing less than spectacular and a grand, unforgettable adventure.

Your time in Peru begins in Lima where the seaside city sits along the wonders of an eclectic culture of Spanish remnants and Andean travelers. The historic center blushes with Spanish architecture and Peruvian pride. Venture to Cusco and into the Urubamba Valley where the vibrant colors of Andean textiles come to life, whether weaved before you or standing out on the locals’ clothing against the lush green of the valley. Board the glass-domed train in Ollantaytambo and watch the passing beauty of the valley as you make your way to the foothills of the Lost City of Machu Picchu. Climb the steps of the city and stroll through the ruins of the decadent Inca remains. The majesty of Machu Picchu stands tall over the valley and beneath the towering peak of Huayna Picchu ready for you to explore. Eventually you will climb down from the citadel and journey to Cusco.

Continue your adventure through Peru in Cusco where the once Inca capital winds along the slopes and valleys of the Andean hills. Explore the streets and the historical wonders that have mixed with the mountain culture of Peru, giving the city a unique and colorful atmosphere. Outside of Cusco you will visit the quaint villages of Pisac and Ollantaytambo both hovering beneath Inca ruins giving each village life and sensational differences. Depart for the Amazon where the majestic wildlife can be seen from the center of the river and beneath the rainforest canopy. Travel through the trails along the Posada Amazonas, where macaws line the clay like colorful balloons and toucans soar along the treetops. Your adventure takes you through the Andes to experience the astonishing and eclectic culture and deep into the waters of the Amazon. From rolling mountain peaks to expansive rivers, the journey may end but you will always be a part of the adventure.

Peru Travel Review: Machu Picchu, Cuisine, 10 Nights

Fantastic!!!! I can't say enough good things about this trip. Zicasso's travel partner did an excellent job at everything! Communication was excellent, our tours were perfect, and our guides and drivers were so helpful.

The guides were beyond our expectations with their knowledge, flexibility, and always going above and beyond. I ended up in the hospital and our guide came to the hospital and helped with all the details, getting me a refund on parts of my bill and getting us to our flight home in less than three hours from being released from the hospital!!

Peru Family Trip Review: Machu Picchu, ATV Ride, 10 Nights...

From the first communication, Zicasso's travel partner listened to our hopes for the trip (multiple locations, epic adventures, keeping teenagers engaged) and crafted a perfect itinerary. Every aspect of the trip was seamless, with the best tours and the best guides, and perfectly appointed hotels.

Our trip coordinator was super-accessible and helpful before and during the trip for any questions that came up. She had great recommendations and insights that we appreciated as first-timers to Peru. She even came by mid-week to say hello, which was an incredible surprise and so wonderful to get to meet her in person!

When one of our return flights home was cancelled, she quickly pivoted and took care of everything to ensure we could still enjoy our last day without stress. The whole family is still talking about the trip and I am so grateful to our trip coordinator for helping us to create a lifetime of incredible memories!

Overall, the trip was outstanding. It was on our bucket list for a long time and it lived up to all expectations. Zicasso's tour company and travel agent were very knowledgeable and helped plan all the details. As with all travel, there were a few small things that came up, but they resolved the issues quickly and effectively. I would highly recommend this travel agency.

Zicasso’s travel agent managed to ensure we were able to see and do all the things on our list, plus more! It was an amazing family adventure. We only had one issue with an airline delay, but she went above and beyond to help us. The guides and drivers were also spectacular.

Zicasso's travel consultant planned the perfect itinerary for our family trip to Peru. She really listened to the types of experiences we wanted to have and absolutely delivered on everything she planned. All of our travel logistics went smoothly, with no issues, hiccups, or delays. She was also very responsive prior to our trip and the few times we reached out during our travels. And the app she used was extremely intuitive and helpful. I would highly recommend Zicasso's tour operator!

Peru, Ecuador Vacation Review: Sacred Valley, Cusco, Machu...

Our trip from start to finish was absolutely fantastic. The Amazon jungle was a blast. I paid for an extra full-day excursion to fish for piranhas, which was definitely a great decision and one of the highlights of our trip (we had the piranhas for lunch, and they were delicious).

The Sacred Valley, Cusco, and Machu Picchu were fabulous. And then, the Galápagos were extraordinary, from the unexpected serenity of the place to the crew of the boat, and, of course, the proximity to wildlife, including snorkeling with sea lions. It was especially meaningful to be in these places with our entire family (10 of us). Everyone understood how special it was and we will all cherish the experience all of our lives.

The Zicasso travel company was fantastic from start to finish. Our travel specialist went far beyond the call of duty to help us, especially when one family members could not make the trip. He helped us with replacing that person with another. He was remarkably prompt, clear, and informative in all communications, both in planning the trip and during it. He has a very kind heart and is a great human being. I cannot say enough positive things about him.
