ANCIENT CULTURAL SITES, AMAZONIAN BEAUTY, AND MOUNTAIN PEAKS

A multicultural destination with many hidden surprises – Peru is waiting to welcome you.  Peru is home to 12 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including one of the world’s most famous archaeological sites, Machu Picchu.  Dating back to the 15th century, the Inca citadel sits high in the Andes Mountains and offers awe-inspiring views across the sacred Urubamba River Valley.  Exploring this ancient wonder will transport you back in time and leave you with memories to last for years to come – it is an absolute must-do on any Peruvian itinerary.

Quench your thirst for adventure with a walk through the Amazon rainforest canopy in stunning Madre de Dios, or embark on a horseback riding experience in the deep Colca Canyon under the watchful gaze of the condor that sweep across the skies above you.  Kayaking, mountain biking and hiking tours can be enjoyed across Peru’s expansive lakes, rainforests and Andean peaks, there is an adventure waiting around every corner!

But Peru isn’t just about high-octane action!  The less energetic with a taste for exclusivity might prefer a luxury cruise along the Amazonian River.  Enjoy first-class comfort and service as you sail serenely into the lush rainforest and enjoy views of the magnificent Pacaya Samiria National Reserve.
