The Best Father-Son Trips Around the World

Father and Son Hiking through the Sacred Valley

Mountain Lodges of Peru’s goal is simple: “true comfort and true service, amidst true adventure”.

Retire each evening to the Mountain Lodges of Peru – it is hands down the most comfortable way to reach the ancient ruins and share a trip neither of you will ever forget.

Surfing the Sands in Morocco

Morocco is a great destination for a father-son trip. We suggest heading to Morocco’s Gold Sand Camp, a tiny desert camp surrounded by giant waves of windswept sand. Days are spent surfing the sands in a 4×4 desert vehicle or riding on camelback. In the evening, you’ll enjoy a traditional Berber dinner, live entertainment, and music under a never-ending sky full of twinkling stars.

For the adventure seeking father-son duo, a weeklong trek through the rugged terrain of Nepal is the perfect journey. Each day you will embark on a hike several hours long with a backdrop of incredible scenery. At the end of your trek, change things up a bit with a stay at Seti River Camp. A safari follows in Royal Chitwan National Park where you will search for Asian rhinoceros, Indian bison, and Royal Bengal tigers.
