A private guide changes how a Peru trip reads. In Machu Picchu it means a pace that suits you, and the latitude to pause at the Intihuatana for ten minutes rather than two. In Cusco it means walking the Qoricocha, San Blas and the Qoricancha with a historian rather than a crowd.
Peruways’ guides are Cusco-based, licensed, and bilingual in English and Spanish, with Quechua a frequent third. They build the itinerary around what you actually want: textile cooperatives in Chinchero, the salt pans at Maras, a sunrise climb to the Sun Gate, a day in the Manu lowland rainforest.
The private format also opens access that group tours don’t: the Boleto Turistico sites after hours in some cases, a weaver’s home outside Chinchero, dinners cooked in private homes in Pisac. Luxury lodges around the Sacred Valley — Explora, Inkaterra, Sol y Luna — pair well with this kind of trip.
Build the trip through Peruways and the trains, shuttles, hotels and permits move together with the guide.
