Homestays

A homestay is for people who want to experience the real Peru, not just the part tourists see. Instead of staying in a hotel insulated from local people, you arrange to stay as a guest with a local Peruvian family, eating meals with them and experiencing a slice of true Peruvian life. Even if you cannot speak Spanish, your hosts will make you welcome like one of the family, prepare typical Peruvian food and show you around where they live - not just the typical tourist trail.

Currently we can arrange homestays in Cusco, and soon in Lima too. If you are really adventurous though, we can arrange for you to stay with a family in Tambo Bamba, a remote town in the high Andes, where you are unlikely to see anyone except local residents.

This is an experience to remember for a lifetime, do not expect luxury, but expect a warm welcome and the guarantee of a truly enjoyable Peruvian experience!
