About us
Specialists in South America, by choice
A small team designing private journeys across the continent we call home.
Our story
Why we started
South American Luxe designs private journeys across South America. We started with a simple aim: to plan travel across the continent with the care and local insight we would want for ourselves.
The people who design, plan and look after every journey.
We are based in Cusco, Peru, and our specialists travel the continent regularly to inspect hotels, meet guides and test routes, so every recommendation comes from recent, first-hand experience.

Our philosophy
Fewer places, seen properly
We would rather you spend three unhurried days somewhere remarkable than rush through six. Pace is the foundation of every itinerary we design.
Our expertise
One continent, in depth
Focusing only on South America keeps our knowledge detailed and current, from seasonal access to the best room categories.
Local knowledge
Authentic experiences
We work with guides, families and small businesses we know personally, so your experiences feel genuine rather than staged.
Tailor-made luxury
Comfort that fits you
Luxury means different things to different people. For some it is a five-star suite; for others, a private table at a family farm.
Personal care
One specialist, start to finish
You deal with the same person from first conversation to return home, someone who knows your plans in detail.
Responsible travel
Travel that gives back
We favour locally owned businesses and fair working conditions for guides and porters.
