Add a pre-trip extension to The Peruvian Amazon: Treks, Cruises & Indigenous Communities or post-trip extension to Landscapes of Bolivia: La Paz & Lake Titicaca; or a combination of these extensions to your Machu Picchu and Galápagos adventure—when you do, you’ll enjoy more time to develop bonds with your fellow travelers.
Local Trip Experience Leaders and Regional Office Expertise: Explore with both a Peruvian Trip Experience Leader and a certified naturalist guide in the Galápagos, who are fluent in English and trained by O.A.T. on the skills needed to bring travelers off the beaten path to meet with locals who share their cultures and traditions with us. Plus, follow an itinerary that’s been carefully crafted by O.A.T.’s Ecuador office—open in 2004.
O.A.T. Exclusives: Our 16-passenger Galápagos ship will anchor just off of each island we visit and a Zodiac will bring you ashore, saving time otherwise spent sailing to and from the mainland. Plus, throughout your adventure, learn about the Controversial Topic of coca leaves in Ecuador.
People-to-People Experiences: Spend two nights in Machu Picchu, giving you more time than any other travel company to explore the famous Inca city, and experience A Day in the Life of Urubamba village when you explore an open-air market, raise your glass at a local chicheria (bar), and visit a school supported in part by Grand Circle Foundation. Plus, venture to the home of a local family for a Home-Hosted Lunch in the Sacred Valley, and help prepare a typical Andean meal while getting to know your generous hosts.
Small Groups: No more than 16 travelers, guaranteed.
Join the growing number of solo travelers reserved on upcoming departures of this adventure—traveling independently or sharing a room with a mother, daughter, sister, or friend.
Safety & Security: You'll have the guidance and support of your expert Trip Experience Leader from South America throughout your entire trip—as well as our regional offices in Argentina and Chile, which is available and ready to help you and your group 24/7.
Travel Solo, But Never Alone: On average, almost half of your group will also be traveling independently, so it’s easier to forge special bonds as you experience unforgettable moments together during your adventure. Plus, your Trip Experience Leader can help connect you with fellow travelers who share your common interests.
FREE or low-cost Single Supplements: Free or low-cost Single Supplements are offered on all O.A.T. adventures and are FREE on pre- or post-trip extensions—a savings of $900-$1,100 per person compared to other travel companies. See available single space here »
