The river canyons and Inca trails of Peru are calling! This multi-sport adventure meets in Cusco where you will enjoy two days in a beautiful, restored colonial hotel and have ample time to sightsee, shop, and acclimate to the altitude. Then, grab a paddle and get ready for a 3 day thrilling whitewater descent through the deep, rugged canyon of the Apurimac River. Camping out on sandy beaches by night, plunging down Class 4 rapids by day!
We employ the most experienced guides with solid backgrounds in safety and swiftwater rescue and include safety kayakers on every trip.
From this majestic canyon we travel to the dreamy Sacred Valley of the Incas for a rollicking exciting cross country and downhill mountain bike ride on dirt roads and single track trails, passing small villages and ancient Inca ruins. After overnighting in a cozy lodge we lace up the hiking boots and hit the famous Inca Trail. Our gourmet service makes the Inca Trail journey one of the most luxurious treks imaginable. In the golden afternoon light, after 4 days of hiking, we arrive at our goal: the magnificent Lost City of the Incas – Machu Picchu.
We will have a full day to explore this wonder of the ancient world with a knowledgeable guide before returning back to Cusco by luxury train.
By the end of this “trip-of-a-lifetime” you will have experienced the full range of adventure activities in Peru while seeing many different landscapes, meeting the warm Peruvian culture, marveling at the wonders of the Inca civilization, and making new lifetime friends and memories.
Our trip to Peru was extraordinarily wonderful on every level. We arrived home--healthy and happy--Saturday. After I get a little caught up, I'll give you a call. Just wanted to drop you a quick note to tell you how very high we are about the entire experience. Needless to say, Piero and Julio are fantastic. Thank you for all of your help. — Janet – Peru / Inca trail 2010
Dear Bio Bio, I’ve traveled all over the world with well known touring companies and I have to say you guys are the best!! For my 40th birthday, a group of 16 friends headed down to Peru to hike the Inca Trail and visit Machu Picchu. We were thrilled mountain biking and horse back riding were also included. And while we knew the trip would be filled with adventure, we didn’t expect the level of luxury Bio Bio offers. The hotels we stayed in were beautiful. The food tent on the trail is out of this world! And speaking of the food, it was gourmet at every stop. We still can’t figure out how the chefs make such amazing meals on the trail. But I think the best part of Bio Bio is the people you have working with you. Our guides (Piero, Jose, Jairo and Reuben) made the trip! They are fun and great to hang out with, but also really knowledgeable about the local area. And they go above and beyond. Here are two examples. One was in the cloud forest. The guides woke up at 5am to see if the sky was clear. It was, so they woke everyone up and we climbed to the top of the hill to have a view from the top of the world. Plus, the porters had already set up our coffee table so we drank hot coffee and gazed out over the Andes. The second was when we arrived through the sun gate at Machu Picchu. Bio Bio got us there in the late afternoon. While I was skeptical about this at first (most get there at sunrise), it was the best plan! We literally had Machu Picchu to ourselves. No crowds. No lines. Plus, the guides hiked for 4 days with champagne in their packs so we could toast to our accomplishment. I can’t say enough about this trip. Our entire group is now looking at going to Chile together, of course with Bio Bio. With tons of love and admiration, Wendy W. Damonte Evening News Anchor, KTVN-TV Channel 2 Wendy W.
