Highlights
- Arequipa, a great gathering city for this journey. With Spanish Colonial flair its streets begged to be explored. And the surrounding vistas of volcanoes give a hint of Peru’s natural beauties.
- Cuzco. It was claimed by the Inca civilization to be the center of the universe. Today it still displays ancient Inca architecture that blends with that of Old Spain. The air is thin here at over 11,000 feet above sea level. You’ll enjoy the color and native traditions of this delightful Colonial City.
- The Sacred Valley and Ollantaytambo. From Cuzco you will descend to this valley of great Inca significance. Cut by the River Urubamba, you will marvel at pre-Hispanic terraced hillsides, an agricultural method still used today. Remnants of ancient cultures about. From here we launch our excursion to Machu Picchu.
- The Rainbow Mountain of Vinicunca, a sensation found nowhere else in the world. Only discovered in 2015 when a complete snow melt surrendered a long hidden treasure. Formed by weathering, environmental conditions and sedimentary deposits over time, the mountain’s unique mineralogy created a marbling effect, with layered hues of gold, lavender, red and turquoise towering into the sky.
- Fulfill your bucket list quest with our excursion to the magnificent mountain peak archaeological city of Machu Picchu. We get there by train as no road exists. It evaded the destruction by Spanish colonizers due to its remote and hidden location.
- Lake Titicaca is the world's highest navigable lake straddling the border with Bolivia. While here we’ll take an excursion to the floating reed islands of Uros and mingle with the unique tribal peoples who have a long historic connection with the water and the islands made of reeds.
- The Andes are special. They stretch from the top of the continent all the way to its southern tip. You will be traveling in and around them throughout your journey.
