📷 THE FACES OF PERU – ANDEAN COMMUNITY FULL-DAY TOUR

🌿 A Rare & Authentic Andean Experience

Forget staged tourist encounters—this is real life in the Andes. This one-of-a-kind tour offers an intimate connectionwith an Andean community that has preserved its traditions, culture, and way of life for generations.

You’ll step inside a real home, share a meal cooked by our hosts, and witness daily life as it truly unfolds. Capture authentic portraits, engage in genuine interactions, and experience the Andes beyond the postcards.

This is not just a tour—it’s an invitation into the heart of Peru.

📍Tour Highlights – Real People, Real Traditions

Experience an Andean home—not a setup for tourists, but a genuine household where families live and work
Photograph in natural settings—capture real moments, authentic smiles, and true emotions
Visit a local school—interact with children in their actual classrooms (weekdays only)
Enjoy a traditional meal—not restaurant-style, but a homemade lunch prepared by your host family
Explore untouched landscapes—discover hidden lakes and highland scenery, far from the crowds
Witness a true Alpaca Blessing Ceremony—a ritual still practiced today, not just a performance for visitors
