Family Amazon & Machu Picchu

A guided, small group Amazon Jungle Lodge and Machu Picchu expedition for families!

Trip Overview
  • Meet primates, parrots and peccaries in their natural habitat at our deluxe Amazon jungle lodge
  • Wander among llamas and ancient stones in the mysterious ruins of Machu Picchu
  • Share dinner with a Peruvian family and enjoy a traditional Andean Pachamanca barbecue

From Amazon lowlands to Andes heights, Peru offers family adventure on a world-class scale. We immerse you in encounters with nature and culture that will capture your family’s imaginations as few places can: A river journey by dugout canoe to a remote rainforest lodge. A walk through the canopy on a network of suspension bridges through the treetops. A float trip down the Urubamba River, with a chance to camp out beneath the Southern Cross. And the amazing ruins of Machu Picchu, fabled “Lost City of the Incas.” Wild Peru will enchant kids, surprise adults and exceed all your expectations. Join us for this guided, small group family expedition to the Amazon jungle and Machu Picchu.

Location of Adventure:
Peru

Group Size Limit: Approximately 16 Travelers
A very important feature of our family expedition to the Amazon jungle and Machu Picchu is the limited group size as guided nature expeditions are best experienced with small groups of travelers.

Included
Accommodations, meals (except 2), NHA’s Expedition Leader & Youth Coordinator (depending upon the number of bookings), land, boat & air transportation, transfers, rafting trip, camping option (including all gear), wet/mud boots for use in the Amazon, permits & parks fees.

Not Included
Travel to Lima, gratuities, alcohol, 2 meals on Day 4, personal items, airport taxes, travel insurance.

Physical Requirements
Easy to Moderate / Flexible
A high degree of physical fitness is not required, although the Andes portion does require a lot of walking at high altitudes, sometimes on rough terrain, and the Amazon may involve walking in mud and high humidity. We do not recommend that travelers with heart or respiratory ailments attempt these treks.

Getting There & Getting Home
You may arrive in Lima, Peru anytime on Day 1 and can depart Lima, Peru any time in the afternoon or evening on the final day. We can best serve you if Natural Habitat Adventures’ Travel Desk makes these reservations for you as they are intimately familiar with the special requirements of these programs and can arrange the most efficient and cost-effective travel. Please call us at 1-800-543-8917.
