Luxury travel is a unique, exclusive, and very different way of exploring the world. It focuses on the most demanding traveler’s interests rather than the destination itself.
Whether you are traveling in a private jet, taking a helicopter ride through the Sacred Valley’s most iconic sites, riding Stand Up Paddles or kayaks in Andean lagoons, or descending the waters of the Colca and Cotahuasi rivers in white water rafts.
You will explore areas of impressive natural beauty and communities located in the heart of the Andes mountains in a truly unique way.
Terra Explorer designs its experiences based on current and ongoing trends related to specific traveler’s interests that are seeking luxury adventure travel. At the same time, when creating our trips, we always take into account our core values:

As Piero Vellutino, our founder, says: “There is no such thing as bad weather, there is only bad gear,” and that is why in Terra Explorer we have the latest technology in high mountain equipment, which allows us to design luxury adventure trips knowing that our travelers will always be comfortable, no matter where we take them.
For our adventure experiences, we use the same Mountain Hardware tents used in the Everest base camps, which can have a 10 °C difference between external and internal temperatures. Our tents, outdoor bathrooms, and showers are so comfortable, you have nothing to envy to a high-class hotel.
A very well-equipped kitchen tent is a fundamental part of our expeditions, always led by one of our outstanding local chefs. We use specialized mountain bikes for our biking trips, with ring 29, double suspension, and disc brakes.
Our kayaks are built for long journeys, they are the same used to cross lakes and oceans on expeditions that last several days. The stability of this boat provides a lot of comfort and safety to our travelers!

Additionally, our guide staff has international first aid certifications such as Wilderness First Aid. Piero Vellutino, our founder, is one of the few instructors on Swift Water Rescue in South America, specialized in rescue in white or moving waters.
