Peru tours that delve deeper

You’re a thoughtful traveller, seeking an experience that’s as authentic and out of the ordinary as you are. You want to be part of the picture – not just another tourist snapping a photo through a bus window. You seek to transcend the obvious, meet real people and get a taste of local life.
You’ve come to the right place.

Age, fitness, available time, and past travel experience are irrelevant. You aspire to a real experience: that’s what matters.

We create life-changing travel experiences.

Intimate group tours that take you beneath the surface. Custom private trips limited only by your imagination. Personal service that exceeds all expectations.

This trip exceeded my expectations from the riding to the wealth of knowledge and passion from the guides. The food was some of the best I've had and the places we traveled to were just beautiful!

– Beth F (travled in September 2022)

The level of personal attention was far better than other guided trips I’ve taken in the past. Organization, flexibility, communication are key words to describe the pre-trip experience. You helped us make the connection with the 'real' Peru, not the one that tourists generally see. If all of your guides are remotely as good as Aldo you are very lucky.

Our group of international trekking friends booked a private trip with Aspiring Adventures to trek the Torres del Paine Grand Traverse and kayak in glacial waters on the Serrano River in southern Chile. We had an outstanding and memorable experience. This trip was fantastic and Aspiring Adventures did a wonderful job of planning and executing. We are already arranging our next Peru (or maybe New Zealand) trekking trip with AA.

Aspiring Adventures is the best company to use when visiting Peru. Gear list was spot on. Bikes were better than expected. The FOOD was awesome. Your choice of places to eat is excellent. If only we could have done the cooks justice. I am ravingly happy. The combination of good organisation, warm hearted knowledgeable guides, awesome food and picturesque countryside is a winning combination. My workmates told me I was still on a high.
