Share this post

A country of ancient civilisations, dramatic landscapes, and refined experiences Peru rewards travellers who choose to explore it slowly and beautifully.

Peru is not a destination you rush through. It’s a country that unfolds in layers through landscapes that shift from desert to mountains to rainforest, and through traditions that are still very much alive. When experience through a luxury lens, Peru becomes deeply personal. It’s not about ticking off sights, but about how you arrive, where you stay, and the moments you choose to linger in. From elegant train journeys across the Andes to quiet evenings in the Sacred Valley, this is Peru designed for travellers who value comfort, meaning, and unforgettable storytelling.

Luxury Train Journeys Through the Andes

Ideal for: Travellers who believe the journey should be as memorable as the destination

Crossing the Andes by luxury train is a return to a slower, more romantic way of travel. Instead of rushing between cities, you watch the landscape transform from your seat snow dusted peaks, vast plains, and remote villages passing quietly by. The rhythm of the train allows you to truly absorb the scale and beauty of Peru.

Why it’s special:
These journeys combine old world elegance with modern comfort, turning long distances into immersive experiences.

What you’ll remember:
Fine dining inspired by regional cuisine, panoramic observation cars, curated cultural stops, and the feeling of travelling through history rather than over it.

Private Cruise on Lake Titicaca

Ideal for: Cultural explorers seeking quiet, intimate experiences

Lake Titicaca has a stillness that’s hard to describe until you’re there. A private cruise lets you experience this sacred lake without distraction just water, sky, and centuries old traditions.

Why it’s special:
Privacy transforms the experience, allowing meaningful connections with local communities and the landscape.

What you’ll remember:
Sunrise over the lake, floating islands made entirely by hand, and conversations that offer insight into traditions unchanged for generations.

Nazca Lines Scenic Flight

Ideal for: Travellers drawn to mystery and once in a lifetime moments

The Nazca Lines are one of the world’s great unanswered questions. Seeing them from the ground reveals nothing but from the air, they suddenly come alive.

This is one of those rare experiences that exists nowhere else in the world.

What you’ll remember:
The surreal moment when massive shapes appear beneath the aircraft, etched into the desert with astonishing precision centuries ago.

Luxury Glamping in the Andes

Ideal for: Nature lovers who want immersion without discomfort

High in the Andes, luxury glamping allows you to feel close to nature while staying wrapped in comfort. Days are spent outdoors, nights are warm and quiet, and the stars feel impossibly close.

Why it’s special:
It strips away excess while preserving refinement, allowing the landscape to take centre stage.

What you’ll remember:
Falling asleep to complete silence, waking up to mountain views, and the rare luxury of space and stillness.

Amazon Rainforest Eco-Lodges

Ideal for: Wildlife enthusiasts and eco conscious luxury travellers

The Amazon is humbling in scale and intensity. Staying at a luxury eco lodge gives you access to this world without disturbing it.

What you’ll remember:
Early morning river safaris, expert naturalist guides, vibrant wildlife encounters, and the constant soundtrack of the jungle.

The Best of Luxury in the Sacred Valley

Ideal for: Travellers seeking calm, culture, and gentle acclimatisation

The Sacred Valley is where many travellers finally slow down. Surrounded by mountains and ancient ruins, it feels grounded and restorative.

Why it’s special:
The combination of history, nature, and thoughtfully designed luxury creates a sense of peace that’s hard to replicate.

What you’ll remember:
Quiet walks along the river, spa rituals rooted in Andean traditions, and evenings where the world feels beautifully still.

Authentic Pisco Tasting in Lima

Ideal for: Food lovers and cultural explorers

Lima’s culinary reputation is well earned, and pisco lies at the heart of its identity. A private tasting goes beyond cocktails to tell the story of Peru through flavour.

Why it’s special:
It turns a long, rugged journey into a seamless and unforgettable experience.
