For the past three decades, Amazonas Explorer has led the way in uniquely different adventure and cultural journeys in Peru and throughout South America. The company is owner operated by Paul Cripps who is originally from the UK. Paul is now based in Cusco, Southern Peru together with his partner and three children. He has spent the last 22 years organizing  high quality journeys, expeditions, honeymoons, family holidays, film crews and alternative adventures throughout the continent and when possible getting out on as many of them as possible.

An Amazonas Explorer “Alternative Adventure” does not mean having to "rough it". We believe in the finer things in life and as our guests, we want your time with us to be as luxurious, relaxing and enjoyable as possible - after all, it is your holiday.

Our dedicated team of professionally trained guides, cooks and support crew are, quite simply, the best in the business. With their passion for adventure sports and love of all things South American, this is the team you want to be on holiday with.

Whether it is deluxe trekking along an ancient Inca Trail to reach Machu Picchu, wildlife watching in the World's best preserved rainforest, extreme rafting through the World's deepest canyon, or taking your family on the luxurious Orient Express train to Lake Titicaca, you can rest assured that an Amazonas Explorer "Alternative Adventure" will be like no other holiday you have ever taken before.
