Flight time
The flight from Auckland to Peru takes roughly 17.5 hours with a stopover. It's a long haul, but so worth it for the wonders of this ancient land.
From the misty peaks of the Andes to the untouched depths of the Amazon, Peru truly is a land of mystery and adventure.
Trek the legendary Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, where ancient ruins emerge from the clouds like a scene from a movie, sail across the shimmering waters of Lake Titicaca or explore the vibrant streets of Cusco, full of colourful markets, lively music and smiling faces.
Food lovers will be in heaven. Peru’s world-famous cuisine is a flavour explosion, from zesty ceviche to hearty lomo saltado and stuffed rocoto relleno peppers, all washed down with pisco sours - of course!
Whether you’re hiking, sightseeing, engrossing yourself in centuries of fascinating history or enjoying a drink with a spectacular view, Peru is a destination that will stay in your heart long after you leave.

For trekking and major cultural experiences, June to August is the time to go as it's dry, but a couple of months either side of this works too.
Peru is between 17 and 18 hours behind New Zealand, depending on Daylight Saving in Aotearoa, so there's bit of adjustment to be made when you get there.

For me, travel has been more than just a series of destinations, it has been a transformative journey that has sculpted my character and contributed to my personal evolution. My travel experiences are not merely about ticking off destinations from a bucket list, but about immersing myself in the heart and soul of each place I’ve visited visit.
My early travels began with frequent road trips around my home country of Canada and the USA, and I am fortunate enough to have now been to six of the seven continents. Exploring the world through various modes of transportation has been a thrilling adventure for me, from cruise ships, to trains, to rickshaws, and I have an appreciation for the experiences that local transport offers. I am comfortable with sleeping in a hammock in the rainforest, an overwater bungalow in the South Pacific, and everything in between.
My experiences have taught me to adapt to different situations and understand diverse perspectives, and my background in customer service and sales has equipped me with valuable skills that I believe make me well-suited for various client needs. I believe this makes me well-suited to meet your needs as a client. Whether it's finding solutions to problems or anticipating your preferences, I strive to provide an exceptional service tailored to you. My aim is to not just meet but exceed your expectations by drawing on my varied background.
My enthusiasm for travel is infectious, and it is my goal to inspire others to embark on their own adventures and discover the beauty of our planet.
