Welcome to Peru, a land of ancient treasures & stunning beauty!
Peru is a truly unique and remarkable destination, offering an unforgettable experience. While Machu Picchu, the 15th-century Inca citadel, is world-renowned, Peru also boasts diverse landscapes, from sandy coastal deserts to the lush Amazon rainforest and dramatic mountain peaks.
Our Machu Picchu Challenge will guide you through glaciers, coffee plantations, Lake Titicaca, and remote Inca sites, revealing the country’s hidden treasures.
Our Impact in Panama
Peru is a country rich in heritage, natural wonders, and man-made marvels, home to the Amazon Rainforest and Machu Picchu. As one of the fastest-growing nations in South America, progress has been made in reducing poverty.
However, social discrimination and inequality persist, and we are actively working to address these challenges and create lasting change.
- Our work is focused in Urubamba, a small town located in the Sacred Valley.
- With a population of 16 000 people, the town is estimated to have 12% of the population lacking literacy skills.

“The experience in itself was a once in a lifetime opportunity. The accommodation was incredible, the hosts were lovely, the school experience was surreal, the food was lovely, the views around where we were based were incredible and the activities we got to take part in were all so good. I would definitely do the 2.5 weeks all over again if I had the chance to.”
