Threads of Peru Tour

The TOP Tour is a 14 Day adventure, which has been designed to give you a greater insight into Peru and the Andean weaving world. This trip will take you from Lima, to the islands of Lake Titicaca, to the remote high mountain communities and to the ruins of the ancient city, Machu Picchu. It's a fun trip with a weaving emphasis, where you'll find yourself exploring Peru on foot, in a car, on a train, on a boat, in an airplane, and even on a bicycle.

“You can get a lot of information through pictures, videos and books, but there is absolutely no substitute for the experience of really being there yourself. Make the trip.”

You will be accompanied by one of the founding members of the NGO 'Threads of Peru', who act as the Tour Leader for your trip, ensuring that all those little bumps and hassles of international travel are smoothed over and made easier for you. Whilst they are accompanying your tour, they can provide greater insight and an added perspective on all that you will discover.

** If you would like to do this itinerary, but unaccompanied (ie without a tour leader) then please contact us for a quote.  You can depart any day with 2 or more people ** This is an excellent tailor made option for the independent traveller who would like to get off the beaten track and see projects and alternatives not seen by many. the ultimate customised Peru tour!
