Guide

All group trips are accompanied by one of our group leaders. The aim of the group leader is to take the hassle out of your travels and to help you have the best trip possible. Intrepid endeavours to provide the services of an experienced leader however, due to the seasonality of travel, rare situations may arise where your leader is new to a particular region or training other group leaders. Your leader will provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see, recommend great local eating venues and introduce you to our local friends. While not being guides in the traditional sense, you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the places visited on the trip, including historical, cultural, religious, and social aspects. At Intrepid we aim to support local guides who have specialised knowledge of the regions we visit. If you are interested in delving deeper into the local culture at a specific site or location then your leader can recommend a local guide service in most of the main destinations of your trip.

Itinerary of your trip Epic Peru, Bolivia & Argentina

  • Day 1 Day 1: Lima
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 1: Lima

      La Bienvenida! Welcome to Lima, the capital of Peru. Your adventure begins at around 2 pm with a welcome meeting. Then, your trip leader will take you on a walking tour of the Miraflores district, including Central Park (Parque Kennedy), the LarcoMar entertainment complex and Parque del Amor (Love Park) for great views over the coast of Lima. Along the way, maybe treat yourself to some Limenian desserts like mazamorra morada, rice pudding or rice zambito. Tonight, youโ€™re free to explore or hit the cityโ€™s nightlife with your new fellow travellers. Maybe head to the famed Tanta restaurant in downtown Lima โ€“ home to the most famous chef in Peru Gaston Acurio.Accommodation: Hotel

  • Day 2 Day 2-3: Puerto Maldonado (Amazon Jungle Lodge)
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 2-3: Puerto Maldonado (Amazon Jungle Lodge)

      This morning, youโ€™ll fly to Puerto Maldonado in the Amazon Jungle, where you'll be staying for two nights. When you arrive, the lodge staff will take you to their office in town. Here, you can leave most of your luggage in safe storage and continue travelling with a small pack of essentials. Youโ€™ll take a motorised canoe upriver to your jungle lodge right in the middle of the jungle, in the Madre de Dios area โ€“ this is a real pinch-me moment! The next two days are packed with activities. Your full day in the jungle includes a half-day trek โ€“ this can get muddy and tiring, but what better way to explore the Amazon than on foot? There will be regular stops on the way and you'll encounter magnificent fauna and flora in their natural habitat. You might even spot macaws, monkeys, peccaries, jabirus and otters, not to mention thousands of butterflies. The guides will also teach you about the medicinal properties and practical uses of the local plants. For your night-time excursion, youโ€™ll venture out in the dark in search of caimans on the Tambopata River. The naturalist guide will use a spotlight in order to locate them on the banks of the river, so you can observe them from a respectable distance. Travelling in the dark, on the river in the jungle can be a bit spooky, but this atmosphere just adds to the fun!Accommodation: Amazon Lodge

  • Day 3 Day 4: Cusco
    • 12:00 am - 11:59 pm

      Day 4: Cusco

      Say goodbye to the jungle and fly to Cusco, where youโ€™ll spend the day acclimatising to the high altitude. After dropping off your luggage and having some lunch, your leader will take you on a walk around downtown Cusco. Youโ€™ll visit the facade of Qoricancha temple, the local San Pedro market, the main square, the Twelve Angled Stone, Regocijo Square and San Blas Square. Maybe try some delicious donas along the way. This afternoon is free to explore. Maybe head to the Cusco cathedral or discover the history of Saqsaywaman. As youโ€™re acclimatising today, itโ€™s recommended that you keep strenuous activity to a minimum.Accommodation: Hotel
