A private South America tour is the ultimate shared adventure
Whether you’re bringing together extended family for a milestone celebration, traveling with longtime friends in search of something new, or uniting members of an organization for a shared passion, Aracari designs private group journeys that are immersive, seamless, and highly considered.
Each itinerary is built from the ground up, combining moments of shared discovery with individual flexibility, guided by expert insight and enriched with meaningful access. For specialist groups, we curate privately commissioned trips with a dedicated focus—heritage and history, conservation, the arts—featuring expert-led access and behind-the-scenes encounters few ever experience.
Across South America, your group might explore the ruins of Machu Picchu, sail through the Galápagos, or journey across Bolivia’s salt flats in convoy, always with thoughtfully planned logistics, exceptional guides, and accommodations that suit your style, from boutique hotels to exclusive-use villas.
Please note: all of our group travel experiences are offered exclusively as part of a privately tailored journey with Aracari, not as standalone activities.
We’ve just returned from Peru. I couldn’t wait to express my deepest gratitude for this unforgettable trip and your incredible hard work. Words truly can’t capture how perfect and smooth everything was – our guests were absolutely impressed, from the hotels and food to the guide and experiences..
Having done similar trips, I can honestly say this was off the charts. Thank you for making it all so exceptional.
— Beth Lin, CEO of IBU Movement, following a privately curated textile journey through Peru
Group travel in Peru offers it all
From the peaks of the Andes to the depths of the Amazon, Peru is a spectacular backdrop for traveling together. Wander the cobbled streets of Cusco with a private guide, journey by train to Machu Picchu, or share a sunset over Lake Titicaca from the deck of a luxury sleeper train.
For active groups, the possibilities are endless—trek to remote mountain passes, raft through pristine valleys, or explore the rainforest with expert naturalists. For those seeking a slower pace, discover Peru’s culinary scene, visit artisan workshops, and take in breathtaking landscapes from the comfort of exclusive lodges and villas.
We also design highly specialist itineraries for private groups, institutions, and organizations—whether tracing Peru’s archaeological heritage with leading historians, exploring its rich textile traditions with master weavers, or focusing on conservation and biodiversity alongside field experts.
