Private Peru Tours: 7 Reasons Why They're a Great Option

What if we told you that you can enjoy a tailor-made tour in a private setting? While private tours may be slightly more expensive than group tours, they offer other advantages full of experiences, with a unique and different perspective on the destinations you visit, all with a distinctive blend of information and entertainment. It's definitely worth considering.

Here are 7 reasons why taking a private tour of Peru is a fantastic option! 🙂

1. Private Tours: Your Way

Private tours offer the possibility of designing and personalizing your experience. Choose a route and itinerary from a range of options, determine the tour duration, and decide where to start and finish according to your preferences.

2. Keep it Family-Friendly

Group tours offer the opportunity to make new friends since many travelers share the same vehicle.

However, you might also prefer a more intimate experience and want to explore a city with your loved ones at your own pace and in your own way. On a private tour, the only participants are you and your friends and/or family, so you're sure to create countless memories of this experience.

In addition, a private tour offers a personal guide dedicated to answering all your questions. Your guide will be prepared to resolve any doubts and inform you about all the topics you want to learn more about.

You'll receive a wealth of recommendations and tips tailored to your interests and designed to help you make the most of your visit.

3. Tailor-Made Tours

If we have a family, we usually ask our travel agents if young children can participate in our tours. A three-hour tour can be tiring for children and inconvenient for the parents who have to look after them.

But on a private tour, you can choose the duration and route that interests you, so that even the little ones have a great time. You can also add activities that are more interesting for them, allowing parents to maximize their experience and make it as enjoyable and memorable as possible.

Furthermore, if someone has mobility issues, whether using a wheelchair, stroller, or crutches, you don't have to worry about the itinerary on a private tour.

When booking a private tour, you can inform us in advance of your group's/family's specific needs, and a route will be created that perfectly suits those special requirements.

4. The Perfect Gift

And the truth is, nowadays there's no better gift than… the gift of knowledge. By inviting a loved one on a private tour, that's exactly what you're giving!

Why buy part of it when you can enjoy the whole experience?

5. Guaranteed Departures

Another huge advantage of a private tour is the answer to the question, "When?"

The answer is: Whenever you want!

Private tours are typically exclusive to travelers in their own group of family or friends, so you can start your trip on any day, according to your convenience or when your flights and hotels are available.

6. Flexibility

With a private tour, you decide how you use your time and the pace of your trip. If you see a spectacular place and would like to stop to take some photos, no problem.

7. Safety

One of the most important advantages now is the safety of tours in an exclusive group, preventing other unknown people from joining your trip.

Personalization is 100% guaranteed, and all biosafety measures against the coronavirus are in place.

If anything makes you feel unsafe, you can let your travel agency know, and they will pay special attention to your concerns, adjusting the tour to your needs.

It is important to check and verify the reputation of the travel agent you choose for your private tour.

Remember that it is best to book with a reputable and responsible tour operator. Especially support all companies that work for responsible and sustainable tourism and have a reputation that gives you a guarantee.
