Probably the most relevant aspect that will pop up when you plan to spend time in Lima is the outstanding local cuisine, from world-class restaurants to the little “hole in the wall” at any random street, not to mention its lively and colorful markets. But this is just one of many riches of a vibrant city where most cultural expressions of an extremely diverse country meet in a unique melting pot. Art, history, architecture, museums, shops of all kinds, nightlife, you name it! Lima is definitely worth spending a day or two. Tell us about your interests and let us take you meet the right people and places to make the best of your time in Lima.
When most travelers think about Peru they may not be thinking on a sunny beach, but if you consider for a moment that Peru has about 3000kms (1870mls) of coastline… well, there has to be something there. The northern beaches near Mancora offer sun and warm weather all year long, so it is a great spot to finish your trip, relax and enjoy fantastic cuisine based on seafood. Not to mention the opportunity to observe wildlife during the whale season, scuba diving, kite surfing and of course world-class surfing.
When you visit Lake Titicaca you can feel a special magic; no wonder that the Incas believed that the first Inca couple raised from the depths of its waters and founded in Cusco what would later become an empire. Shared by Peru and Bolivia, Titicaca is the second largest lake in South America and the highest navigable water body in the world. Rich cultures, endless landscapes and exceptional natural beauty are some of the facts that make this destination worth spending a few days at. Options range from simple yet charming home-stays, to an eco-lodge in a small private island or a luxury lodge in the middle of pristine nature.
Representing approximately 60% of the country and being one of the most biodiverse zones in the world, the Amazon Rainforest covers most of the territory that extends from the eastern part of the Peruvian Andes down to its boundaries with Ecuador, Colombia, Brazil and Bolivia. Spending a few days in the Peruvian Amazon is almost like being transported to a different planet. Look for our expert advise and dare to explore it from one of our preferred eco-lodges or on board of one of the luxury river cruises.
Located just under 9800 ft above sea level, the Sacred Valley is located just at the right altitude to acclimatize when you begin your journey to the Andes. Traversed by the Vilcanota River, this incredibly fertile valley was of vital importance during Inca times. The result is a mix of spectacular archaeological sites that were shaped in harmony with astonishing mountain scenery; not to mention the little villages and local communities treasuring fantastic ancient traditions. All in all a true playground and the perfect place to explore the Andes through nature and culture. Feel free to let us know whether you enjoy hiking, mountain biking, river rafting, fishing, horseback riding or any other outdoor activity, in order to plan the right itinerary for you.
Long before the internet even existed, Machu Picchu was already in the mind of pretty much any traveler planing to visit Peru. A spectacular citadel mysteriously built on the top of an imposible mountain is still capable to impress the most skeptical traveler. There are plenty of ways to reach it and visit it, but only one chance to see it for the first time. Take the advise of our expert planners and make of this a day you will remember forever.
Although Machu Picchu is considered to be the symbol of the Inca empire, a reputation earned thanks to its spectacular location and architecture, the true Inca jewel was Cusco, ancient capital of the empire, where the Incas did ruled for over a century as god-kings. In addition to this, the arrival of the Spanish conquistadors brought a huge architectural transformation, resulting in a fascinating city to explore.
The origins of Arequipa date back to hundreds, maybe thousands of years as a commercial hub where important paths from the Andes met with the ones from the coast. The result is a charming colonial city built with a white volcanic stone and surrounded by three volcanoes standing as timeless guardians. Arequipa is home to a varied and delicious traditional cuisine, interesting museums, alpaca and vicuña shops, little charming cafes, and despite being the second most important city in Peru, it is the kind of town where you want to walk.
A three hour drive from Arequipa City take you through the land of the Vicuña, owner of the finest animal fiber on earth, to then wind back down towards the Colca river, forming a valley filled by literarily thousands of ancient farming terraces, and then one of the deepest and most dramatic canyons in the world. Spending a few days here will put you in touch with ancient and living culture, and with one of the most spectacular natural sceneries in the Peruvian Andes.
A desert in Peru? Well yes… Peru is home to a large section of the Atacama desert. This is not just one of the driest deserts in the world, but also an extremely rich ecosystem for marine wildlife and ancient cultural developments. The Paracas National Reserve, San Fernando Peninsula, the Ballestas Islands and of course the world famous Nazca Lines are just a few examples of wonderful places in the desert that are waiting to be explored by air, sea or land… and for the most adventurous ones, a true paradise to leave the road and cruise on board of the best 4x4 vehicles.
Are you the kind of traveller who enjoy leaving the beaten path and adventure yourself in remote areas in the search for pristine nature and authentic culture? Completely different to the south, the northern part of the Andes merges with the Amazon in unique ecosystems filled by endemic flora and fauna. This vast land of green mountains and high waterfalls was home to the Chachapoya people, a rich culture that flourished long before the Incas and left spectacular remains such as Kuellap and Revash. Let one of our expert guides take you discover this special Peruvian region.
Trujillo and Chiclayo, a traditional colonial town and a chaotic and vibrant commercial village; two cities in the northern coast of Peru that are completely different to each other, except for two main things: 1. Amazing pre-Inca archeology in the desert 2. An extremely rich local culture expressed in one of the best regional cuisines in Peru. Two specific elements that make of this a region worth visiting, not to mention the fantastic surfing for those who share that passion.
