Planning Your Family Trip to Peru: The Journey Begins in Lima

Your Peru family trip starts in the vibrant capital of Lima, where coastal beauty meets world-class gastronomy. We apply “German precision” to your arrival and transfers, ensuring a smooth transition for children and parents alike. Unlike standard tours, our optimized itineraries provide a well-balanced introduction to Peruvian culture, allowing your family to settle in before heading to the mountains. This initial stage is crucial for a successful family trip to Peru itinerary, focusing on comfort and ease as you prepare for the Andean highlands.

Sacred Valley Adventures: Avoiding the Crowds with Kids

The second part of your 9 day Peru tour takes you deep into the Sacred Valley. To ensure your family’s well-being, we prioritize lower altitudes first to facilitate proper acclimatization. Our strategy to avoid the crowds ensures you can explore the circular terraces of Moray and the Maras salt mines without the stress of large tourist groups. Because we specialize in 100% customizable tours, we can include hands-on activities such as pottery workshops or traditional weaving demonstrations, keeping every member of the family engaged and inspired.

The Magic of Machu Picchu: A Family Experience to Remember

The highlight of your Peru family vacations is the majestic citadel of Machu Picchu. We coordinate all train and entry logistics with total precision, selecting optimal times and comfortable services to ensure a stress-free visit. Our expert guides are masters at bringing history to life for children, transforming the ruins into a giant classroom of discovery. This segment of the family tour of Peru is designed to be the ultimate shared milestone, providing your family with memories of the “Lost City” that will last a lifetime.

Authentic Cusco: Final Days of Your Family Vacation to Peru

To conclude your Peru itinerary 9 days tour, we explore the historic heart of Cusco. Whether your family prefers wandering colonial streets or embarking on a light trek to see the city’s surrounding ruins, we tailor the final days to your energy levels. Every aspect of our planning reflects our commitment to safety and quality, ensuring that your family trips to Peru are as reliable as they are meaningful. Trust in our proven track record to deliver a journey that perfectly balances the logistical excellence of “German precision” with the warmth of “Peruvian passion”.

What Our Travelers Say About Us

An unforgettable Peru trip thanks to Exploor Peru!

Exploor was the best choice we made for our Peru trip. They planned every part of the trip exceptionally well right from the planning to scheduling and sharing of information.

They had a great team who were prompt, friendly and thorough. A big shoutout to Rosmy from the planning team and Maik and Grimaldo who were our guides. They went over and above for each leg of the trip. Great vehicles, good restaurant selection for meals, well-explained tours made the whole experience very memorable and comfortable. An added bonus was the great photo taking which our guides were experts in 🙂 10/10 recommended!
