Peru With Kids Highlights

1. The Rainforest Lodge Experience

Stay in our favorite lodge, one of the few thats actually on the river with a large deck for watching sunsets. A bar for cold drinks, dining hall, swimming pool and jungle bungalows. The guides are well versed in the tribal ways of jungle life and will show you thier knowledge. Walks, treks, canoe excursions, viewing platforms, wildlife and the sounds of the jungle make this 3 night stay a trip highlight for kids and families.

2. Incan Culture

Peru was one of the last areas to be colonized by the Spanish and their culture and customs are very much alive. Cusco has frequent parades and festivals, the food is interesting and fun to try (pizza and pasta is still widely available dont worry!) and the ancient Incan stone walls, roads and cities still stand all around Cuzco and the surrounding Sacred Valley.

3. Machu Picchu by train

A few hours by train from Cusco, the Vistadome train experience is one of a kind. Arriving from the snow capped mountains to the jungle river village of Aguas Calientes, a short bus ride will take you to the entrance of incredible Machu Picchu where you and your family can have the Indiana Jones adventure of a lifetime!
