A portion of the proceeds from the trip will be used to finance initiatives and projects chosen in the field of environmental conservation, protection of minors and social promotion in rural and disadvantaged areas of Peru.
What we offer you with the PERU RESPONSIBLE itinerary is a journey that will take you between the main destinations in Southern Peru through different stages of "knowledge and sharing" that will be carried out at all social promotion projects that represent the recipients of the shares in solidarity that we collect with our travels. In places where there are no social promotion projects, family homes or structures with which we maintain a relationship of "support" and "support", overnight stays will be provided in structures that, however, implement shareable practices in terms of social responsibility and / or environmental conservation, or which are family-run, or outright local. The use of public land transport means is mainly foreseen (or private according to what will be your choice) according to a formula that will allow you in any case the maximum discovery of unmissable destinations in the south of the country. In the basic version of the program, the guided tours are in some cases private, exclusive in other cases shared in small groups, but always with passengers of Peruresponsabile.it and always, for you, in Italian. Some suggested options to enrich the itinerary can be found directly in the program, while for even greater personalization you can indicate your wishes by email or by phone.
