Best trip ever in Peru! Mountain Lodges 7 Day Lares Trek was magical. Guides were incredible, the lodges were lovely, and the food was impeccable. I cried when the trip ended. Detour made the whole booking process so easy, I originally wanted to hike the Inca Trail but the permits were sold out. I was so bummed out, but Greg from Detour convinced me that this trip was just as good. It was that and even more. I am glad Detour had an alternative suggestion which in the end was a better option for me. I am so glad I did this trip!

Detour Helped Us With A Trip Of A Lifetime! We felt completely taken care of from start to finish - from the prompt responses to all our silly questions ahead of time to the wonderful guides on our trip. I would travel with Detour again in a heartbeat!

The Inca Trail & The Amazon It was an adventure! I loved hiking the Inca Trail with Amazons Explorer. Our guide shared his enthusiasm of Inca history and our angels, who carried the camping equipment & food, made it possible for me to do the hike. The next leg of our journey was a trip to the Tambopata Research Center on the Amazon River with Rainforest Expeditions. I don't think I will ever forget the sounds of the Rainforest: the Macaws, Howler Monkeys, a night time boat ride under the stars... Detour Destinations helped put this trip together. They helped with pre travel information, gave me an itinerary with contacts & phone numbers should travel plans change enroute, guides met us at the airport. Seamless travel, I loved it.

experts in AUTHENTIC adventure travel I can't say enough good things about Detour Destinations. They know, really know, the ins and outs of Central and South America. I havae worked with them on several trips - Peru, Costa Rica and Ecuador. They know these countries - have the insider's scoop - on people, places and experiences. They have created deeply authentic, culturally rich and super fun & adventurous trips for my family. I asked for a combo of education, adventure and community - they delivered on all three. I asked for a college level educated field biologist and history tour guide and they not only delivered an expert in the history & culture of Peru, but one who had connections to the Indigenious people of the Andes....so when we walked a trail and picked a leaf or flower he could tell us why it was important to the people 1000 years ago and today. That alone made a life changing impression on my son. All important to us on any trip the food! Detour knew where to go to - from diners and five star - to experience Anthony Bourdain authentic food. I'll never forgot the Coca leaf ravioli with a fresh tomato sauce enjoyed while sitting on in a sun drenched, flower rich patio - it was magical. Detour Destinations is my go to for custom adventure travel - for family, for multi-generational trips and for girl friend get-aways. Last but not least DD delivers value......you get everything the big boy thick colored brochure travel operators offer without the huge mark-up.

Best Trip Ever I found Detour via a google search and boy, am I glad that I did. I travelled with 7 family members to Galapagos. Detour was with us every step of the way. The attention and constant updates prior to our trip were greatly appreciated. I can not wait to use them again. These guys made our wonderful trip even better. I would definitely use them again
