These itineraries offer a wide range of activities that keep you active and inspired during your honeymoon, as you exercise your body, as well as your mind, and learn more about the local Andean communities.

Activities include hiking to iconic, archeological Inca sites, authentic cultural exchanges with remote mountain communities whose traditions have remained unchanged for centuries, and visits to local markets and museums. Time can also be spent participating in yoga and meditation sessions (upon request), biking, and much more.

After a day filled utilizing your body and mind, you and your spouse can head down to the high-end lodges that serve as luxurious base camps.

Following your guilt-free, gourmet meal, unwind in your personal Jacuzzi. Still not feeling up to par following your hike in the mountains? Massage services are provided to help soothe your sore muscles.
