Peru Tours From Kerala, Home of Machu Picchu

A lost city in the clouds, a train that climbs through the Andes, and food the whole world now copies. We plan the whole journey for you.

Why Peru

The Journey Every Traveller Keeps on the List.

The Journey Every Traveller Keeps on the List.

Peru holds the sight that tops the world's travel lists: Machu Picchu, the Inca city set on a mountain saddle above the clouds, found again only a century ago and still keeping most of its secrets. Around it spreads a country worthy of the crown. Cusco, the old Inca capital, layers Spanish churches over perfect Inca stonework. The Sacred Valley runs green between snow peaks, terraced and farmed as it was five centuries ago. Lake Titicaca floats reed islands on the border sky-high with Bolivia, condors ride the thermals over Colca Canyon, and Lima has quietly become one of the food capitals of the earth. Peru asks for a well-built plan, altitude, trains, permits, and rewards it like nowhere else. We build it from Kerala, end to end.

The city in the clouds

Arriving at Machu Picchu

Stone Streets Above the Clouds
The moment at the Sun Gate

Stone Streets Above the Clouds

No photograph prepares you for the first full view. Machu Picchu appears suddenly, a complete stone city saddled between two green peaks, terraces stepping down the mountainsides, cloud moving through it like breath. Built by the Incas in the fifteenth century and never found by the Spanish, it survived intact, temples, fountains, and stairways cut to fit the mountain, and it now stands as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. The journey builds the magic: the train winds along the Urubamba river beneath snow peaks, the final climb turns, and the city opens below the viewpoint where every traveller stops mid-step. Entry runs on timed permits with counted daily places, which is exactly the kind of detail we settle months ahead, so your only job is to stand there and believe it.

The Kitchen That Conquered the World.
Worth knowing

The Kitchen That Conquered the World.

Peru has become one of the planet's great food destinations, and the world's rankings agree year after year. The secret is geography: the cold Pacific gives the fish for ceviche, the Andes grow thousands of potato varieties and grains like quinoa, and the Amazon adds fruits most menus have never met. Lima's dining rooms sit among the world's most celebrated, yet the same magic works at market stalls, causa, anticuchos, and ceviche bright with lime for pocket change. For travellers from Kerala, the spice comfort runs deep, aji chillies do the work our own kitchens understand. Come hungry; Peru considers it good manners.

Built Around the Mountain.
How we plan it

Built Around the Mountain.

The classic Peru journey runs nine to eleven days: Lima's food and museums, then the highlands, Sacred Valley first to acclimatise gently, Machu Picchu by train, and Cusco to finish, with Titicaca or Colca added for longer trips. Altitude shapes the order, valley before city, and permits shape the calendar, Machu Picchu's daily places are counted and the dry season sells out early. Bolivia and Ecuador connect for grander sweeps. Tell us your dates and your group, and the full plan comes back, flights from Kerala, trains, permits, and stays, in the order the mountains prefer.

What to Sort Before You Fly.
The fine print, made simple

What to Sort Before You Fly.

Indian passport holders need a visa arrangement for Peru, and holders of valid US or Schengen visas benefit from simplified entry, which we confirm and prepare for your documents as part of the booking. Flights from Kerala connect through European or Gulf hubs into Lima. The sol is the currency, and cards work widely in the cities. May to September brings the dry mountain season; Machu Picchu permits and the famous trains book months ahead, which we handle early. Cusco sits at 3,400 metres, so we route the Sacred Valley first and pace the days gently. Pack layers for warm days and cold nights, comfortable walking shoes, sun protection, and rain cover in every season.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

A complete Inca city from the fifteenth century, set high on a mountain saddle in the Peruvian Andes, never found by the Spanish and revealed to the world only in 1911. It stands among the New Seven Wonders and remains travel's most famous single sight.

No. The classic route runs by scenic mountain train and a short bus climb, comfortable for every age. Trekkers can take the multi-day Inca Trail with its own permits, and we arrange either path.

Cusco sits high, so we route the lower Sacred Valley first, keep the first days gentle, and build in rest. Most travellers adjust comfortably within a day or two, and Machu Picchu itself sits lower than Cusco.

Machu Picchu admits a counted number of visitors daily, in timed slots, and the mountain trains carry limited seats. In dry season both sell out well ahead, which is why we lock them months early.

The world's award lists say yes, year after year. Ceviche, causa, anticuchos, and a thousand potatoes meet influences from every migration, and Lima's restaurants rank among the finest anywhere. Kerala palates settle in fast.

Naturally. Lake Titicaca crosses into Bolivia for the salt flats, and Quito links for the Galapagos, so one journey can hold two wonders. We plan the multi-country sweep as a single route.
