horseback riding vacations and riding expeditions
in peru
“This ride had introduced us to
the justifiably admired Peruvian Paso horses, and allowed
us to peek into the heart and soul of this fascinating
and richly layered country and people in a way simply
not possible traveling any other way.”
Perol Chico, founded in 1996, is the premier provider of exclusive horse riding holidays and riding expeditions in Peru. Our rides combine culture, history, and breathtaking scenery in an unforgettable odyssey for the privileged few.
Perol Chico’s main riding operation is nestled against a majestic mountain backdrop in the heart of the Sacred Valley, between Cusco and Machu Picchu.
Our purebred and well-trained Peruvian Paso horses are our most beloved asset and the care and well being of our horses takes top priority.
We specialize in multi-day riding tours high in the Andes and across the vast desert and coastal lands of Arequipa, where no tourist has set foot. Peruvian horsemen with a thorough knowledge of the local flora and fauna and traditions, guide our rides while 4x4 vehicles are used as back up.
Our multi-day rides are suitable for intermediate and advanced riders only.
Customized rides for private groups can be organized to meet client’s personal interest and desired departure dates.
Perol Chico promotes ecological awareness and strives to minimize environmental impact while actively promoting local cultures and traditions. We provide the highest standards of professionalism in equine care, guiding and accommodation, protecting the environment and caring for our guests with unrivaled personal attention to details.
We are proud to celebrate the more than 400-year-old tradition of breeding, training and riding the velvet-gaited Peruvian Paso horse.
Our beautiful horses do well in the show ring, but our primary goal is, and always will be, to select and breed sound and strong horses that are able to cover long distances, year in year out, just like in the old days.
We invite you to discover the Magic of the Peruvian Paso horse and the grandeur of its native land, from that altar of freedom...your saddle!
“Traveling on horseback is about our quest to discover and explore new horizons, unknown sights, sounds and places that are off the beaten path. On horseback we are able to cross rivers, conquer mountains, and ride along endless miles of hidden trails to find the most fascinating places on earth. On these equestrian journeys, we encounter different cultures, different values and different life perceptions. And riding to far and away places allows us to embrace the true and unconditional friendship and loyalty of our beloved and most reliable travel companion, the horse.”
