About the trip

G Adventures offers a nine-night small-group holiday to Peru that blends highland history with jungle exploration. The route takes in Cusco, the former Inca capital with its cobbled streets and the Cusco Planetarium, before heading to the Sacred Valley where you can visit indigenous communities and ruins. Guests choose either a four-day escorted hike along the Inca Trail, complete with a local guide and porters, or a scenic train ride to Aguas Calientes.

Following the trek or train journey, the tour reaches the iconic citadel of Machu Picchu, where new regulations mean visitors follow circuit routes designed to manage crowds. After the highlands, attention turns to the Amazon basin with a two-night stay at an intimate rainforest lodge near Puerto Maldonado, accessed by canoe and boat. This blend of trekking, cultural encounters and jungle wildlife offers a variety of landscapes and experiences within a single itinerary.
