When travelers begin mapping out their bucket-list trip to Peru, one image consistently stops them in their tracks: a series of completely transparent, diamond-like glass capsules hanging precariously off a sheer 400-meter (1,200-foot) granite cliff above the Sacred Valley.

Since opening its hanging doors, Natura Vive’s Skylodge Adventure Suites has captured the global imagination. It has been featured in major international travel publications, gone viral across social media, and earned a reputation as one of the most audacious, exclusive, and unique hotels on Planet Earth.

When travelers start mapping out their dream itinerary through the Peruvian Andes, their plans almost always center on historical classics: wandering Cusco’s cobbled alleyways, exploring Incan ruins, or catching an early morning train to Machu Picchu. But modern travel has evolved. Today’s top adventurers want to engage with the landscape directly—not just observe it from behind a tour bus window.

If you want to experience the sheer scale of the Andes with a rush of pure adrenaline, taking on a Via Ferrata in Cusco is widely considered the ultimate mountain activity.

When travelers start mapping out their dream itinerary through the Peruvian Andes, their plans almost always center on historical wonders: wandering the stone streets of Cusco, deciphering the terraced rings of Moray, or boarding the morning train to Machu Picchu. While exploring ancient ruins is an essential rite of passage, a truly modern journey through South America demands more than passive sightseeing. Today’s top adventurers want to feel the landscape—not just look at it from a bus window.

If you are searching for the single most exciting things to do in Sacred Valley, nothing compares to stepping off a high-altitude cliff platform and soaring across an ancient granite canyon.

When travelers begin researching luxury experiential hospitality in Cusco, the search almost always leads to a single, iconic destination: Natura Vive. Hanging dramatically over the Urubamba River in Pachar, these cliffside sanctuaries have redefined South American travel, moving hospitality off the valley floor and directly into the clouds.

However, once you decide to step off the traditional tourist path, you are faced with a pivotal choice. Natura Vive offers two distinct high-altitude luxury concepts: the world-famous Skylodge Adventure Suites and the serene Starlodge Adventure Suites.

Planning your first journey to the Peruvian Andes is an exhilarating milestone. Most travelers land in the imperial city of Cusco expecting a straightforward itinerary: spend a few days touring colonial plazas, take a train ride through the mountains, and snap a classic photo at Machu Picchu.
