Romantic Peru: A 12-Day Honeymoon of Culture, Cuisine and Connection

Touch down in Peru and be greeted with VIP airport assistance and a private transfer to your boutique hotel in Lima’s romantic Barranco district. Settle into Hotel B or Villa Barranco, a haven of art, charm and ocean breezes. In the evening, opt for an intimate dinner at one of Latin America’s best restaurants—Central, Mayta or Isolina—where each dish tells a love story of its own. 

Dive into the heart of Lima on a private exploration of the bohemian Barranco district, the elegant Historic Centre and a buzzing local market. Choose your own adventure: create authentic Peruvian dishes during a hands-on cooking class or sip your way through a curated pisco tasting. As the sun melts into the Pacific, stroll along the clifftops arm-in-arm. 

Take a morning flight to Arequipa, known as the "White City" for its baroque architecture in dazzling volcanic stone. After checking in at Cirqa or Casa Andina Premium, enjoy a leisurely afternoon by the courtyard or rooftop. As dusk falls, dine by candlelight with views of Misti Volcano—fiery in the evening light. 

On a private walking tour, step into the city’s past: explore the iconic Santa Catalina Monastery, admire sweeping vistas from historic viewpoints and wander through noble colonial mansions. Afterwards, indulge in a couples' spa experience or sip a cocktail under bougainvillea-covered balconies. 

Leave the city behind and journey deep into the Andes through the stunning Salinas y Aguada Blanca Reserve. At Colca Lodge, tucked beside a mountain river, soak in natural hot springs beneath endless skies and let the peaceful silence of the canyon cradle your evening. 

Rise early to witness the awe-inspiring flight of Andean condors at Cruz del Cóndor—a sight that feels truly sacred. Explore remote villages where time slows and artistry thrives, then return to Arequipa for one more magical night beneath Southern Hemisphere stars. 

Fly to Cusco and continue directly into the Sacred Valley—a peaceful escape of rolling hills, Incan terraces and quiet beauty. Your private transfer brings you to the serene Inkaterra Hacienda Urubamba or Explora, where romance meets nature. 

With your private guide, explore the legacy of the Inca: marvel at the engineering of Pisac, Ollantaytambo and the mysterious circular terraces of Moray. Visit Maras’ gleaming salt flats and share stories with artisans in a weaving village, where your presence supports living heritage. 

Board the Vistadome or Hiram Bingham train for a breathtaking ride through river canyons and emerald mountains. At the gates of Machu Picchu, your private guide will help you uncover the secrets of this legendary citadel. That evening, retreat to Inkaterra Machu Picchu Pueblo or Sumaq Hotel for a candlelit dinner surrounded by cloud forest whispers. 

Start the day your way: explore an orchid garden, visit local hot springs or linger over coffee in the misty air. Then ride the rails back to Cusco, where you’ll check in at Palacio Nazarenas, El Retablo or Antigua Casona San Blas—each a gem in the heart of the city. 

Wander the cobbled lanes of San Blas, marvel at the sun temple Qoricancha and take in the vibrant spirit of Cusco’s main square. As golden light spills over the rooftops, toast your journey with rooftop cocktails at Limbus before your farewell dinner at MAP Café or Cicciolina—a final celebration of flavour and connection. 

Bid farewell to Peru (for now) with a private transfer to the airport. Or extend your adventure with two dreamy nights in the Amazon at Inkaterra Reserva Amazónica, where jungle whispers and river reflections await.
