We operate all of Peru, with our own office: from the Amazon to the altiplano, from Lima to Machu Picchu.

Magistrar operates all of Peru with its own in-country office and the same approach it applies in Argentina: tailor-made luxury travel for agencies and tour operators that need a ground handler that answers fast and solves problems on the ground.
Peru combines three worlds within a few hours' flight: the Pacific desert coast, the Andes (Cusco, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu and Titicaca) and the Amazon rainforest. Sequencing altitude, domestic flights and trains well is what separates a great trip from an exhausting one.

Lima's food scene and the full Andean circuit.
From the Tambopata rainforest to Machu Picchu.
Arequipa, Colca, Titicaca and Cusco overland.
All of Peru: Lima, Cusco, the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, Puno and Lake Titicaca, Arequipa and Colca Canyon, Paracas, Ica and Nazca, the north coast and the Amazon (Iquitos and Tambopata).
Puerto Maldonado is a short flight from Cusco, so Tambopata is usually added before or after the Andean circuit.
It's advisable. Cusco is at about 3,400 meters; starting in the lower Sacred Valley and keeping the first day easy helps prevent altitude sickness.
