Dear Cynthia, I would like to thank you, on behalf of the group of 9, for arranging an unforgettable experience in your country. We all enjoyed the 10 days but the highlight was the Inca Trail. We all set off with a few misgivings as to whether or not we would be able to complete the [...]
We had the most fun, amazing trip of our lives. First time I’ve taken a vacation and not gained a pound , very physical every day. Many once in a lifetime experiences we will never forget - we got to see the volcano that had recently started erupting on one of The Galapagos islands at [...]
We had a fabulous trip and your organization couldn’t have been better. The places were wonderful, excellent hotels, nice restaurants, great activities (cycling, riding, river rafting), outstanding guides (esp Fernando in Cuzco/Machu Pichu). Reception and logistics at airport was great and drivers/cars were very good. Really a great trip which we all enjoyed a lot. [...]

         I had only been to Buenos Aires (“BA”) on business years ago. I liked it but I clearly had not seen much of what it truly has to offer. This time around I thoroughly enjoyed a lot of what makes it the fashionable capital of South America. Its understated, [...]
      During my recent visit to Suasi (February 2008), I experienced what had captivated me about this place ever since my first visit in 1997, when it was still under construction. Of course my personal and Aracari’s close connection to Martha Giraldo the island’ owner has a lot to do with it….I still [...]

Hot Chicama          Some say she’s more popular than the President, and she’s certainly made a splash on the world stage, but world surfing champion Sofia Mulanovich is happiest spending her days on the beach in her home country of Peru. Back in 2004, when this then 21 year old became the first [...]

The new lodge-to-lodge alternative to camping       In the “top ten things to do before you die” list, trekking to Machu Picchu just became more than just a pipedream for those who simply could not face the idea of camping out.

Celebrating the beauty of Chachapoyas Poised on the brink of mass exposure, Chachapoyas, a swathe of dense cloud forest in the Andes of Northeastern Peru, holds a special place in our hearts. In some ways, Aracari’s history is intertwined with this magical place. It was here, in “Indiana Jones” country, that archaeologists made a startling find of [...]
