Our Peru youth humanitarian expedition has it all! Culture, adventure, and most importantly, impactful opportunities to serve. Arrive in Lima and quickly board a plane to the beautiful city of Cusco nestled at over 11,000 feet. While you get acclimatized, participate in a community outreach project providing food and necessary items to those in need. Enjoy some of the world’s finest textile shopping and even pet a real alpaca! Visit the Lima, Peru temple and participate in baptisms (pending availability).

Serve in rural villages and help in our freshwater and sustainable farming causes. Serve in an orphanage, special needs school, and serve the local branch members. Prepare to work hard, long, and fast-paced days while pushing yourself out of your comfort zone on this Peru youth humanitarian journey.

Show your skills as you surf down sand dunes. Quickly head up to the Andes for a mountain bike ride of your dreams, and a heart-racing raft down the river (weather permitting). Zipline across giant mountain ravines and sit in thermal hot springs. With each new adventure and a beautiful eight-mile hike, you’ll be one step closer to Aguas Callientes, the base of Machu Picchu.

Check Machu Picchu, one of the 7 wonders of the modern world, off your bucket list! Take the historic train back to Cusco and prepare for the final experience of swimming with sea lions. Join this fast-paced Peru youth humanitarian trip for the experience of a lifetime!
