Ride
to the Pacific
Ten-day ride.
lima-arequipa-cusco-sacred valley-machu
picchu-lima
Join us on our adventurous ride through unexplored and merciless
desert terrain to reach a secluded beach haven on the Pacific
shoreline. Visit the convent of Santa Catalina and see the
famous mummy of Juanita in Arequipa, the City of Eternal
Spring. This is a trip suited to pioneering souls – an
equestrian journey filled with stark contrasts. Hot days,
cool nights, barren deserts and the abundant wilderness of
the coastline, the opulence of a 5 star hotel versus the
pure simplicity of rustic beach cabanas that will have you
feeling like Robinson Crusoe himself. These rides are offered
between November and March, including a special New Years
Ride. [more...]
