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.

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


Absolutely the trip of a lifetime. I was stunned by the diversity of Vanuatu. Why are there not more tourists? Mountains, beaches, jungle, caves, waterfalls. Snorkeling with tropical fish in perfect clear water. Working up a sweat with a jungle hike then diving into a waterfall to clean up! Staying with locals in a jungle village! I can’t think of anything you could have done differently, or any way this trip could be improved on. Just, thank you!

Hi Steve and Katy, thanks for a wonderful trip, we had a great time and would recommend Aspiring to anyone considering visiting South America. Special mention to Luis and Ronald (Charlie one and Charlie two). They went the xtra mile for us, two fine young men!

Absolutely 5-star. I didn't know what to expect, but Aspiring Adventures exceeded my wildest dreams. Great guides, great biking, great scenery, great encouragement, great mini-connections with natives. Loved biking downhill in the Andes the most. I also enjoyed the two nights we camped. And of course Machu Picchu.

Aspiring Adventures really helped make my whole trip both exciting and relaxing. All the details were thought through and the guides were incredible.I had first considered bringing my own bike, but glad I didn't bother -- the rental bikes were solid machines, actually better than my own bike, and Ronald maintained them excellently throughout the trip too. I can't recommend biking in Peru enough, especially when you do it with an Aspiring Adventures crew.
