Start Your Honeymoon In Peru With An Evening In Lima

After landing in Peru’s capital city, you and your partner will have an evening to relax and prepare for the next two weeks of romance and adventure. Take this opportunity to explore Lima’s world-class culinary offerings. Named the most important culinary destination in Peru by the World Travel Awards, this city has some excellent restaurants where couples can celebrate the start of their honeymoon.

Discover the exciting fusion menu at Maido which specializes in Nikkei cuisine. Combining Japanese and Peruvian culinary techniques, this restaurant showcases fresh, local ingredients with unique preparation methods transported from the other side of the world. The combination creates a beautiful gastronomic harmony worth experiencing at least once while visiting Peru. For a more traditional taste of local fare, head to Isolina, which celebrates the flavors of a typical Peruvian home in the best way imaginable.

Your honeymoon in Peru truly begins on day two of the trip, as you head to one of Peru’s rich cultural capitals near Cusco, known as the Sacred Valley. Here, couples will embark on a day of enriching experiences as they visit the Awana Kancha Living Museum. Learn about some incredible traditions and practices of the locals who have lived in the Peruvian Andes for generations. This museum works with over ten unique communities to ensure they offer the most accurate, most immersive experience possible for curious travelers eager to learn about life in the Andes.

Another unforgettable Sacred Valley experience on the agenda is a trip to an authentic hacienda. Here, travelers will get to connect with the family who owns and operates this traditional ranch-style property, and how they take care of the land that produces one of the best ingredients in the Andes: Giant White Corn. After a delicious homemade meal here, you’ll venture to see some of the Sacred Valley’s important archeological sites overlooking the region.

Celebrate With A Traditional Andean Wedding Ceremony

The Andean wedding ceremony may be the most unique experience awaiting couples on their honeymoon. Few travelers get to enjoy something so special. It must be planned with the help of local experts to ensure it’s as authentic as possible, and cannot be done by just anyone. Couples will meet with an Andean shaman who will guide them through the journey of presenting their vows in front of the mountain spirits, known as the Apus, and Mother Earth, known as Pachamama. Surrounded by majestic views of the Peruvian sierras, you and your partner will spend this day solidifying your love even further in an inspiring, empowering ceremony.

Get Ready For An Exciting Adventure To Machu Picchu

No trip to Peru is complete without crossing the infamous, awesome ancient citadel of Machu Picchu off the bucket list. On your fifth morning in Peru, you will board a train in the Sacred Valley that weaves through the peaceful landscapes, up through a rare cloud forest, and emerges in the mountains just below one of the most alluring archeological sites in the world. Tour the ancient Incan citadel with a private guide who will teach you the secrets of this hidden city.

From important religious gatherings, to surveying astrological patterns, and even a refuge from invaders – the leaders of the Incan empire had various uses for Machu Picchu. Your expert guide will teach you all about what historians know about this citadel, and discuss some of the ongoing theories still being researched.

After spending the night in Aguas Calientes at the base of the mountain, couples will head back up to explore more of this landmark on their own terms. For a deeper investigation of Machu Picchu, travelers can choose to hike the Machu Picchu mountain which allows further exploration of the main citadel. Or, for a bit more of a physical challenge, head to the sister mountain, Huayna Picchu, which provides unparalleled views of the Incan archeological site that are impossible to see anywhere else.

Connect With Cusco’s Heritage At This Luxury Hacienda

After two days of hiking through Machu Picchu, it’s time to indulge in a slower paced activity in Cusco. One of the most romantic activities in Peru is visiting a hacienda where couples can relax in serene, lush landscapes while learning about the importance of these large ranch-style properties. Enjoy a peaceful horseback tour of the region at the hacienda of Huayoccari. The family that owns and operates this hacienda have lived here for centuries, so they know this land better than anyone. You’ll be led on a breathtaking tour through the estate, and treated to a gourmet meal made with the freshest ingredients cultivated on site.

Take a full day to yourselves and explore the lovely cobblestone streets of Cusco. There are few things more precious on a honeymoon than quality time, and being able to stroll along the energetic streets of this eclectic city is a luxury few travelers have. But, since this trip is a two-week excursion, you have a beautiful opportunity to take your time and appreciate the idyllic colonial architecture, the delicious Cusco dining experiences, and the balance of tradition and modernity that makes this city so unique.

Spend The Last Days Of Your Honeymoon In Peru Lounging In Paradise

Thus far, every day has been filled with thrilling adventures exploring the most bucket list worthy sites in Peru. Now, for the last few days of this romantic vacation, couples will be able to unwind on the beaches of Mancora. White sand beaches with magnificent Pacific waters make this one of the most impressive beach towns in Peru, perfect for lounging in the sun, taking a surf lesson, treating yourselves to a spa treatment, or even snorkeling in the Organos Bay. For three days, this tropical marvel is your home. Soak up every moment together before returning to Lima for your flight home.
