Let our Peru travel experts reveal ancient Incan secrets
Travel to Peru has always been a favourite with our clients. Its beguiling mix of natural beauty and ancient Incan culture is, indeed, irresistible.
Most of the best Peru travel itineraries will take in Cusco. Once the capital of the Incan empire, today it is the gateway to the country’s most famous site, Machu Picchu. This mysterious complex offers panoramic views over the Sacred Valley and surrounding mountains.
In the attractive city of Arequipa you can explore the museum that houses the famous 'Ice Maiden' Incan mummy. Nearby, farmers in the vast Colca Canyon cultivate the steep slopes while condors glide above.
You can take a relaxed scenic cruise across the calm and clear waters of Lake Titicaca high in the Andes. Or you can drift along the Amazon aboard our sumptuously appointed new riverboat, Pure Amazon, in search of pink river dolphins and other iconic wildlife. If you’re feeling more adventurous, trek with a guide deep into the Peruvian rainforest, where the vibrant flora and fauna contrast dramatically with the starkly beautiful mountain scenery.
Other highlights of Peru that our expert team can work into your itinerary are the stunning colonial architecture of the capital, Lima, and an unforgettable flight over the ancient Nazca Lines in the south of the country. Our travel specialists can also advise on the best time to visit Peru.
