This beautiful Andean country rewards you with rich rainforests, spectacular mountain scenery and the architectural enigmas of the Incas. In addition to countless vibrant festivals, colonial towns and a full menu of thrilling outdoor activities.
Ask one of our Peru experts to design your tailor-made itinerary and you could find yourself canoeing along winding Amazonian tributaries, watching howler monkeys swing through the rainforest canopy, or walking, in wonder, along the site of the ancient and mysterious Nazca Lines.
Perhaps you’ll discover the blue waters of Lake Titicaca, home to the floating reed islands of the indigenous Uros, or find yourself on the edge of the immense Colca Canyon - a gulf so deep that it’s almost impossible to comprehend its true scale. Until your guide points out that the tiny birds soaring effortlessly above the valley floor are, in fact, huge Andean Condors.
The colonial squares, baroque churches and world-class restaurants of Lima, Peru’s 16th century capital, are no less impressive, whilst Cusco, a living museum of Inca and Spanish colonial history, is a delight to explore.
It is from Cusco that you make the pilgrimage, either by train or on foot, to the legendary mountain-top citadel of Machu Picchu. Framed by sub-tropical rainforest, with buildings dating from the height of the Inca Empire, this is without doubt Peru’s greatest treasure.
