about this tour
about this tour
A romantic tour of Peru and Ecuador offering couples the opportunity to experience landscapes and cultures shaped over centuries. Lima, Peru’s capital, blends historic character with modern life. Its colonial buildings, central plazas, and long standing cathedrals reflect architectural styles that have endured over time. Cusco, once the heart of the Inca Empire, highlights the achievements of this ancient civilisation. Visitors can walk along stone streets where Inca foundations sit alongside Spanish influences. The Sacred Valley features villages and terraced hillsides where daily life continues much as it has for generations. Archaeological sites across the valley share stories of community living, agriculture, and spiritual belief. Machu Picchu, set high in the Andes Mountains, is recognised for its design, craftsmanship, and dramatic setting, showing the close relationship between nature and human skill. In Ecuador, the Galapagos Islands provide a contrasting experience. These volcanic islands support wildlife found nowhere else on earth. Encounters with giant tortoises, sea lions, and native bird species create moments of quiet reflection. The islands highlight the balance between natural forces and carefully protected ecosystems. Throughout the journey, couples can connect with local people, learn about regional traditions, and observe everyday life. If visiting markets, listening to traditional music, or observing local customs, these experiences add depth to the trip.

Experience the spirit of Cicciolina in the countryside. Pick up your box lunch or picnic and enjoy nature alongside tasty dishes and flowing drinks. Refresh with soda, beer, Pisco Punch, or wine, plus unlimited water and fruit-infused water. Snack on beet chips with avocado, Andean sushi with wasabi lime cream, and bruschettas with cream cheese and caramelized onions. Main dishes include alpaca roast beef with mustard chutney and grilled chicken.
