Women's Travel to Machu Picchu & Peru

Machu Picchu & Peru is a wonderful destination for women traveling solo or in groups. Peru is South America's most profound travel destination — anchored by the Inca citadel of Machu Picchu but extending to the Sacred Valley's living indigenous culture, Cusco's colonial beauty, the Amazon basin, and Lima's food scene that has become the gastronomic capital of South America.

Inspired by the model of Audrey Travel and Friendly Planet, The Wedding Unicorn plans women-first travel experiences to Machu Picchu & Peru — safety-vetted, joyful, and built around the female traveler's experience rather than generic itineraries.

Watching sunrise burn away the clouds from Machu Picchu's Sun Gate, revealing the citadel below — this is one of the planet's genuinely life-changing views.

We source women-owned or women-operated properties where available, vet all transportation and guide services for safety, build in community experiences with local women where appropriate, and design itineraries that feel both adventurous and secure. Machu Picchu & Peru's Inca citadel, Sacred Valley, Cusco, Peruvian cuisine, Huayna Picchu is best experienced when you can be fully present — and our planning ensures you can be.
