Day by Day Journey
Day 1 | Arrival in Lima
The ocean meets you first—a reminder that some things are simply vast and beautiful. Your private transfer delivers you to Miraflores, where the evening belongs to Peru’s culinary genius. Dinner tonight isn’t just food; it’s the beginning of a conversation.
Stay: Belmond Miraflores Park (or similar: JW Marriott Lima, Country Club Lima Hotel)
Day 2 | Lima for Two
A guide leads you through Lima’s historic heart at a pace that suits you—colonial architecture, convents that hold centuries of silence, stories that linger. But the real luxury? The afternoon is yours. Perhaps Barranco’s bohemian streets call. Perhaps a nap by the ocean. Perhaps simply being together in a city that feels like a secret.
Stay: Belmond Miraflores Park (or similar: JW Marriott Lima, Country Club Lima Hotel)
Day 3 | Lima to the Sacred Valley
The Andes rise beneath the plane, and the air changes. In the Sacred Valley, the Urubamba River moves with a rhythm that feels ancient. This afternoon is about acclimatization—but also about simply sitting together, watching the light shift, and letting the valley settle into your bones.
Stay: Sol y Luna (or similar: Inkaterra Hacienda Urubamba, Tambo del Inka)
Day 4 | The Sacred Valley for Two
In Chinchero, a Quechua family welcomes you into their home—not as tourists, but as guests. You’ll prepare food together, share stories, and taste the valley in every bite. The afternoon belongs entirely to you. No program. No plan. Just time to be.
Stay: Sol y Luna (or similar: Inkaterra Hacienda Urubamba, Tambo del Inka)
Day 5 | The Sanctuary of Machu Picchu
An early start—but worth it. The train winds through cloud forest, and then you’re there. With a private guide, Machu Picchu becomes something personal: each stone, each terrace, each window telling its own story. Time together on the terraces, watching clouds drift over Huayna Picchu—this is the kind of memory that lasts.
Entry times are scheduled in advance; we’ll make sure yours is the right one.
Stay: Belmond Sanctuary Lodge (or similar: Sumaq Machu Picchu Hotel, Inkaterra Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel)
Day 6 | From Machu Picchu to Cusco
The road climbs to Cusco, and the city pulses with energy—indigenous and colonial, ancient and alive. San Blas welcomes you with workshops where artisans still work as they have for centuries. A quiet afternoon, a glass of wine, the sound of the city fading as evening falls.
Stay: Palacio del Inka, a Luxury Collection Hotel (or similar: JW Marriott El Convento Cusco, Belmond Monasterio)
Day 7 | Cusco’s Romantic Layers
A private Andean cultural specialist reveals Cusco’s layered history: Inca stonework supporting Spanish arches, megalithic masonry that defies explanation. The city spreads below, cradled by mountains that have witnessed empires rise and fall. Together, you watch the sun set over the plaza.
Stay: Palacio del Inka, a Luxury Collection Hotel (or similar: JW Marriott El Convento Cusco, Belmond Monasterio)
Day 8 | Cusco’s Living Culture
San Blas opens its doors for private visits. Weavers, ceramists, silversmiths share not just technique but meaning—the stories woven into every piece. The afternoon is yours. Perhaps the plaza calls. Perhaps a quiet corner to simply be together.
Stay: Palacio del Inka, a Luxury Collection Hotel (or similar: JW Marriott El Convento Cusco, Belmond Monasterio)
Day 9 | Departure from Cusco
Private transfer to the airport. But the journey remains—the taste of valley corn, the quality of Andean light, the memory of a place discovered together.
