Chile and Peru Adventure trip to be launched

If you have been wanting to go to South America, this is THE trip to Peru.
You will spend 2 days in Chile first visiting the beautiful arts and crafts center in Pueblito de Los Dominicos where over 120 craftspeople work at their art in public view. You will learn the secrets and history of classic Chilean cuisine in beautiful surroundings during the culinary tour, visit the local farmers markets and prepare outstanding Chilean meals under the direction of our Chef.

In Peru, you will be awestruck by Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley. These are truely the most inspiring and most beautiful sights that I have even seen. You will learn of the history and archeology of the ancient cultures, explore the local ceramic studio to discover the techniques and designs from ancient Peruvian cultures.

One of the highlights of this trip is a 2 day Misminay Indian Community trek through spectacular scenery surrounded by mountains to arrive at 3,700m altitude to the village. The local people will treat you to a welcome tea and show you traditional weaving techniques. Here, the children of the village are friendly and curious. Lunch will be at the community.

Another highlight of this adventure is the 4 days spent in the Amazon jungle. Here you will be transported up the river to the native community of Infierno. You will be treated to an amazing array of birds, mammals, reptiles, giant river otters, butterflies and amphibians. Enjoy canopy tower walks, wildlife viewing through the jungle and a night walk. Once again you will contribute to the community and interact with the local children while being treated to special dance and musical performances.

This will be an amazing trip, one that will leave a deep impression.

We have only 16 places for this trip. Please let me know if you are interested.

The trip is scheduled for late September to early October for 15 days. I will post prices once the airfares are finalised in the next couple of days.
