HOTELS

The hotels that we include in our tours are nice, comfortable and friendly. Some are hotels, some hostels; but in Peru the difference between them is that a hotel has a 24-hours food service, and a hostel doesn't. In all these places the rooms have a private bathroom with hot water (24 hours) and breakfast is always included.

For INDIANA EXPEDITION it is important to support entrepreneurship and the local economy, that's why we prefer small, charming and friendly hotels run by local people than big hotel chains.

Here you'll find a short description of the hotels that we include in our tours.
