A tailor made journey to the Andes awaits you
It is with great pleasure that we can announce, Aracari founder and president Marisol Mosquera has been included on Travel + Leisure’s A-list of the World’s Top Travel Agents for 2011. Hurray!
Appearing in the September edition of the magazine, Marisol is listed in the Latin America section as the only entry for Peru. Having been awarded the same accolade in 2010, this marks the second year in a row that Aracari have made the T+L grade.
You may remember not so long ago that we ran an “Innovation Competition” for our guides in Cusco. We asked all of our guides in the region to come up with new ideas to develop Aracari’s service, with the allure of a fantastic trip to another part of Peru for those with the best ideas.

While recently in the Cusco region, I took the opportunity to realise the lodge-to-lodge Ausangate trek. This is an incredible 5 day trek that sees partakers staying each night at authentic and comfortable mountain lodges in between walking along a miraculous trekking route that passes beneath the snow covered peak of Ausangate amidst other wonders.
As of last week there have been amendments to the way that entrance tickets to Machu Picchu are allocated. Effective immediately, no more than 3,300 travellers are now allowed to enter the Machu Picchu Historic Sanctuary daily.
For this reason we would urge those who want to travel to Machu Picchu with Aracari to advise us as early as possible in order that we are able to secure your tickets as far in advance as possible.
