happy holiday message

At Shimmer, we believe that the most effective team-building experiences go beyond boardrooms and spreadsheets. My trip to Peru with my family was an unforgettable experience - and as an event planner, I couldn't help but view it through the lens of a team building experience. If you're looking for something out of the box, a trip to inspire and build connections within your team - I think I've found just the place.


Even if a big company trip isn't in the cards for you right now, maybe my experiences and travel tips will inspire your personal travels, or give you ideas on how to make your next event a cross-cultural, vibrant group event. Stay tuned on the blog for the next few weeks to get more info on every part of this trip! Starting off in Sacred Valley...




The Perfect Day One

Important tip! Don't discount the importance of altitude medicine while you get acclimated.


  • Start your day at the Ollantaytambo Ruins: view the impressive Inca fortress, a testament to the ingenuity of this ancient civilization. The views are unbeatable.

  • Participate in a weaving demonstration with a local artisan

  • Take a mountain bike tour around the salt mines of Morais

  • Head to the Moray Ruins, an Inca ruin that is believed to have been used for agricultural experiments hundreds of years ago.

  • End your day with a Peruvian dinner at El Huacatay - I was so impressed by the food and atmosphere. It's a can't miss on my list!




Day Two


  • Visit the Pisac Ruins that overlook the town - take in the panoramic views and enjoy the endless llama and alpaca sightings.

  • Shop around Pisac Market: where locals sell textiles, crafts, and delicious food. Shop and try some new food - you can easily spend several hours here.

  • Enjoy dinner at Tres Keros - I tried the alpaca stew (a traditional Peruvian dish) and there were many other amazing options on the menu.


 

Sacred Valley is packed with beautiful sights, amazing food, and great markets. Stay tuned and visit the blog to learn more about our Peruvian adventure over the next few weeks.
