One of the best parts of any family vacation is getting to know the locals and making connections that you could only make through traveling. This holds true no matter where in the world you travel to. One place that we can’t get enough of, and neither can our traveling families, is Peru. Between our Friends Across Borders program, meeting Quechuan weavers, and sharing lunch with a local family in Cuzco, there are plenty of people to people opportunities in Peru. What about the other locals? What about a people to llama experience? These are also just as great. Here are 10 of our favorite llamas we’ve seen during family vacations in Peru.

1. This little llama family getting a snuggle in on Machu Picchu

2. This solo llama who goes out and grazes on her own

3. This llama who stayed out too late last night

4. This philosopher llama sitting in deep thought

5. This llama that loves to take selfies

6. This ‘two-toned’  llama

7. This suspicious llama

8. This llama that took over the screen, and probably everything else it does

9. This tiny baby llama in a tiny purple hat

10. This llama who needs a haircut

You can make all kinds of friends in Peru, whether it be locals, fellow travelers, or llamas. No matter who you meet, this is one of the best places for your next family vacation! Or you can see all of these reasons not to go to Peru…
