MACHU PICCHU

The crown jewel of Peruvian attractions, Machu Picchu is a 15th-century Inca citadel nestled high in the Andes Mountains. Known as the "Lost City of the Incas," its breathtaking stone architecture and mysterious history make it one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Whether you arrive via the Inca Trail or the scenic train, this UNESCO World Heritage Site offers an unforgettable glimpse into a sophisticated ancient civilization.

Once the capital of the Inca Empire, Cusco is like a big museum where colonial architecture meets ancient ruins. Explore the cobbled streets lined with vibrant markets, visit the impressive Sacsayhuamán fortress, and immerse yourself in the rich culture. The city's blend of history and modern life makes it the perfect starting point for your Andean adventure.

AMAZON RAINFOREST

Covering about 60% of Peru’s land, the Amazon Rainforest is a biodiversity hotspot teeming with exotic wildlife, from jaguars to macaws. A visit here promises immersive experiences in nature—take a river cruise, walk canopy bridges, or stay in eco-lodges deep in the jungle. The lush greenery and symphony of wildlife sounds make it a paradise for nature lovers.

LAKE TITICACA

At 3,812 metres above sea level, Lake Titicaca is the world’s highest navigable lake. Straddling the border with Bolivia, it’s dotted with unique floating islands made by the Uros people from totora reeds. Visit the islands of Taquile and Amantani to experience traditional Andean culture, stunning vistas, and a deep connection to ancient legends.

THE NAZCA LINES

These enormous geoglyphs etched into the desert floor remain one of Peru's greatest mysteries. Spanning 500 sq km, the Nazca Lines depict various animals, plants, and geometric shapes, some only visible from the air. Theories abound about their purpose, but the true origin of these ancient artworks continues to intrigue historians and travellers alike.

COLCA CANYON

Twice as deep as the Grand Canyon, Colca Canyon offers dramatic landscapes and the thrill of spotting the majestic Andean condor soaring above. Visit quaint villages like Chivay and explore hot springs, terraced fields, and trekking trails. The region's rich culture and stunning scenery make it a must-see for adventurers.

PARACAS NATIONAL RESERVE

A coastal desert reserve offering stunning red sand beaches and diverse wildlife. Paracas is famous for the Ballestas Islands, known as the “Poor Man’s Galápagos,” where you can see sea lions, penguins, and countless seabirds. The reserve’s mix of desert landscapes and marine life creates an unforgettable natural experience.

LIMA

Peru’s capital, Lima, is a bustling metropolis known for its colonial architecture, rich history, and culinary delights. The historic centre boasts impressive landmarks like Plaza Mayor and the stunning San Francisco Monastery. Don’t miss the gastronomic scene—Lima is often called the "Culinary Capital of South America," famed for dishes like ceviche.

AREQUIPA

Nicknamed "The White City" for its beautiful white volcanic stone buildings, Arequipa is a city of charm and history. The Santa Catalina Monastery is a must-visit, as is the nearby Misti volcano. Arequipa is also the gateway to Colca Canyon, making it an essential stop on any Peruvian itinerary.
