Family Adventure in Peru

ARRIVAL IN LIMA

Upon arrival in Lima, a Peru VIP Travel host will personally welcome you and escort you to your hotel. After a long flight, let us take care of all the logistics so you can begin to relax from the very first moment.

You’ll be transferred comfortably to your accommodation, where you can freshen up and enjoy a peaceful afternoon. We recommend getting a good night’s rest to start your Peruvian adventure feeling refreshed and ready for your morning flight to Cusco.

FLIGHT TO CUSCO – JOURNEY TO THE SACRED VALLEY

After a restful night, enjoy a complimentary buffet breakfast at your hotel before departing for Cusco. The flight is short but unforgettable, offering spectacular views of the majestic Andes—sure to captivate both children and adults alike.

Upon arrival, a Peru VIP Travel host will greet you and accompany your family to a delicious lunch, followed by your journey into the Sacred Valley.

Along the way, you’ll visit the Sulca Living Museum, a unique space that celebrates the richness of Peru’s ancestral textile art. This stop offers a fun and interactive experience for the whole family, including the chance to meet and feed llamas and alpacas, living symbols of Andean heritage.

After this charming visit, continue to your hotel in the Sacred Valley, where you’ll enjoy a peaceful evening surrounded by nature and serenity.

KAYAKING ON LAKE PIURAY – ANDEAN POTTERY EXPERIENCE

Today combines adventure and art for a memorable family day in Peru. After a delicious breakfast, you’ll head to the peaceful shores of Lake Piuray for a morning full of water-based fun. The whole family will receive a friendly safety briefing before setting out on a guided kayaking experience across the lake’s calm waters, surrounded by breathtaking Andean landscapes and rich biodiversity. It’s the perfect opportunity to spot native birds and connect with nature.

Back on land, enjoy a picnic-style lunch, thoughtfully prepared with fresh regional ingredients.

The afternoon brings heartwarming moments with local animals—guinea pigs, cows, donkeys, and everyone’s favorite: Valicha the alpaca, a highlight for the little ones.

To end the day on a creative note, each family member will have the chance to paint traditional Torito figurines or local stones, crafting a unique, handmade keepsake to remember this unforgettable experience in the Andes.

LUXURY TRAIN & PRIVATE TOUR OF MACHU PICCHU

This is the moment every adventurous family has been waiting for. Board an elegant train from Ollantaytambo and watch the landscape transform as the Sacred Valley gives way to the lush cloud forest. Through the wide panoramic windows, try to spot alpacas grazing among ancient terraces—a delight for both kids and adults.

The adventure continues with a short bus ride up to the Historic Sanctuary of Machu Picchu. Before reaching the citadel, enjoy a light lunch to recharge for this long-awaited experience.

Your private visit to Machu Picchu, led by an expert guide, will be nothing short of unforgettable. As you walk through ancient chambers and hanging terraces nestled between the mountains, you’ll hear fascinating stories and uncover the secrets of Inca engineering and spirituality. Seeing the precision of their architecture up close will exceed all expectations.

After the tour, descend to Aguas Calientes to rest comfortably for the night—lulled to sleep by the soft sounds of the cloud forest, a natural symphony that surrounds this mystical corner of Peru.

HUAYNA PICCHU OR MACHU PICCHU MOUNTAIN

Today is your chance to choose your own final adventure in Machu Picchu. You may opt to hike the iconic Huayna Picchu Mountain or the majestic Machu Picchu Mountain. Both routes offer exciting challenges and breathtaking views of the citadel and the awe-inspiring landscape that surrounds it.

Huayna Picchu is perfect for those looking for a shorter but steeper climb, featuring a touch of adrenaline and hidden ruins tucked among the vegetation.
Machu Picchu Mountain, on the other hand, offers a longer, less technical hike—ideal for those who prefer a more relaxed pace with panoramic views of the Sacred Valley and the citadel from above.

Both options are exclusive and have limited daily availability, so advance booking together with your Machu Picchu entry is essential.

After this culminating experience, you’ll reunite in Aguas Calientes and board the train back to Ollantaytambo. There, your Peru VIP Travel host will be waiting to transfer you comfortably to your hotel in Cusco.

Relax and enjoy a well-earned evening in the imperial capital of the Incas, with your heart full of unforgettable memories and your camera loaded with vibrant snapshots of Machu Picchu.

CUSCO CITY TOUR – CHOCOLATE MUSEUM

Get ready to fall in love with Cusco, a vibrant city that captivates nearly every traveler who visits. A private tour is the best way to dive into its history and uncover its most intimate secrets.

Your guide will meet you at the hotel to begin the exploration. You’ll visit the impressive archaeological remains of Sacsayhuamán, where the Incas bravely resisted the Spanish conquest; then stroll through the bohemian neighborhood of San Blas, home to artisans and inspiring workshops. You’ll also explore Qoricancha, the ancient Temple of the Sun, over which the Spanish built the Santo Domingo Monastery. Along the way, you’ll enjoy local snacks and traditional treats.

In the afternoon, you’ll enjoy a sweet experience at the Chocolate Museum. As the cradle of Andean cacao, Cusco is the perfect place to learn about this cherished delicacy. You’ll take part in an interactive workshop where you’ll craft your own chocolate truffles—a delicious souvenir to take home.

FLIGHT TO LIMA – MAGIC WATER CIRCUIT

This morning, your journey continues with a flight from Cusco to Lima, marking the final stage of your unforgettable family vacation in Peru. Be sure to look out the window as the majestic snow-capped Andes gradually give way to the golden dunes of the coastal desert.

Upon arrival in the capital, you’ll be welcomed by your Peru VIP Travel Lima host, who will escort you to your hotel in the vibrant Miraflores district, perched on cliffs overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

In the evening, get ready for a charming experience. Put on comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting wet, as you’ll head to the Magic Water Circuit, a dazzling light and fountain show in one of Lima’s most iconic parks. This spectacular display of dancing fountains, lights, and music is a magical experience for both children and adults. Many fountains are interactive—perfect for splashing around and having fun as a family. It’s a night you’ll remember forever.

EQUESTRIAN LUNCH – PERUVIAN PASO HORSE SHOW

Enjoy a relaxed morning in Lima. Unwind by the hotel pool, stroll along the Miraflores boardwalk with views of the Pacific Ocean, or simply take time to savor the final moments of this extraordinary family adventure.

By late morning, you’ll be picked up for a journey to the countryside of Lurín, on the outskirts of the city. There, a unique experience awaits: an equestrian lunch at a traditional Peruvian hacienda, home to the elegant Peruvian Paso horses.

After a tour of the stables and gardens—and a close-up encounter with the youngest foals—you’ll enjoy an outdoor lunch at the hacienda, surrounded by history, nature, and warm coastal hospitality.

Then comes the show: to the rhythm of drums and trumpets from the marinera norteña, you’ll witness expert chalanes (Peruvian horsemen) guiding their horses through a graceful and harmonious dance. If you’re feeling adventurous, you can even ride one of these noble animals and experience the world-famous paso llano, the smoothest gait in the world.

After this one-of-a-kind experience, you’ll return to Miraflores with time to enjoy a light dinner or one last walk through the city. When it’s time to depart, we’ll take you to the Lima airport for your international flight home.
