Following the success of their launch into Chile and Argentina, andBeyond is adding tours of Peru and Ecuador. In addition to popular locations such as the Galapagos, Machu Pichu, and Lake Titicaca, andBeyond will create a set of tours that dive into the lesser-known areas for a more authentic experience.
Planned itineraries:
-
A Peru Family Adventure: A seven-day journey where children have the opportunity to meet local villagers, play with animals such as llamas and alpacas, and enjoy a variety of outdoor adventures.
-
The Flavors of Peru: An itinerary exploring the traditional and modern gourmet Peruvian cuisine in Lima and Cusco, culminating in a trip to Machu Picchu
-
