A team of real travel experts, brilliant at designing bespoke holidays that focus on boutique hotels and luxury hideaways

We planned a trip to Peru with Sundowner Holidays and it was amazing. Visiting Lima, Cusco, and Machu Picchu gave us a great mix of culture, history, and adventure. Hiking the Inca Trail together and exploring the Sacred Valley were definite highlights. Sundowner helped put together an itinerary that suited all four of us perfectly, and we loved every part of it.

Dining and Lodge Life

Meals at StarDome focus on fresh, locally sourced Peruvian ingredients, with dishes that reflect the flavours of the Sacred Valley and the wider Andes. There is a small restaurant and communal dining space where guests can share stories with fellow travellers, as well as quiet corners to enjoy a drink and the views. Facilities are simple but well thought out, centred on the domes and the lodge’s terraces that look across the valley. The team at StarDome is small and welcoming, offering guidance on local excursions and sharing insights into the region, giving the lodge a personal, community-minded atmosphere.

Star Dome Lodge

An extraordinary lodge combining luxury and culture in Peru's Sacred Valley.

This was the big trip we’d been talking about for years, and it more than lived up to expectations. The balance was spot on – James helped us pace it so we had time in Cusco to acclimatise before the Inca Trail, and then a few gentler days around Lake Titicaca before flying to the Galápagos. Having the right hotels in the right places made such a difference, and the local guides really brought everything to life.

Emily Ashworth, Peru & Galapagos

What an adventure! We’ll never forget the salt flats in Bolivia, staying in a hotel made of salt was such a fun experience, then crossing into Peru for Lake Titicaca and Cusco before ending in the Galápagos. The way the trip was put together worked really well, and we could tell how much thought had gone into every detail.
