A Family Journey of a Lifetime
14 Day Peru Itinerary
Anywhere made this so easy! No glitches in our travels at all. From the hike to Machu Picchu to speeding through sand dunes in a buggy, the entire experience was out of this world.
An unforgettable family vacation…
Our family was looking forward to this trip for the longest time. We wanted to hike Machu Picchu and experience all of the awesome sites with our 15-year-old daughter and 12-year-old son. We’re all good hikers and were looking for some adventure. We took a 2-days/1-night excursion that is the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. I will never forget this day! Amazing 14 km (8.7 mi) of hiking. When we got to the Sun Gate I cried. It felt like I had found heaven! This was a great alternative to hiking the entire Inca Trail!
Unbelievable views of the Nazca Lines…
My son was fascinated with the tour to see the Nazca Lines. It was an amazing flight and the Nazca Lines were more visible than we expected. We also took a culinary tour in Cusco and loved that we did this after Machu Picchu. It was a great low-key day. The entire family loved this experience.
An experience I’d recommend to anyone…
I would also recommend the dune buggy ride. This experience was amazing! When I planned it I did not think the dune buggy ride would be that exciting but was excited to sandboard. It was a phenomenal experience going over the crest of very steep dunes, one after another. Unforgettable! Sandboarding was tame in comparison to the ride. It was a great way to end our Peruvian Adventure.
