Peru

From Machu Picchu to Amazonian Rainforests

Peru Tours and Vacation Packages

From the Amazon rainforest to Machu Picchu, a trip to Peru offers endless adventure.

Peru is a country that captures the imagination like few others, boasting an astonishing array of sights from ancient ruins to breathtaking natural landscapes. This South American gem offers a journey through diverse ecosystems, from the arid plains of the Pacific coastal region to the peaks of the Andes and down to the lush Amazon rainforest.

At the heart of Peru's appeal is the rich tapestry of its indigenous heritage, most famously encapsulated in the Incan citadel of Machu Picchu. This awe-inspiring archaeological site is perched atop a mountain ridge, offering not just a glimpse into a bygone civilization but also stunning panoramic views that etch themselves into the memory of every visitor.

But Machu Picchu is just the beginning. The Sacred Valley and the colonial city of Cusco are replete with historical treasures, while the Nazca Lines, the mysterious geoglyphs etched into desert sands, continue to puzzle researchers and fascinate travellers.

Peruvian cuisine is another cultural cornerstone that has gained international acclaim. It's a culinary odyssey that ranges from the fresh and zesty coastal ceviche to the Andean delicacy of cuy (guinea pig). And to the rich, flavourful stews and grills of the Amazon. Fusion foods, blending indigenous, Spanish, African, Chinese, and Japanese influences, provide a delectable taste of Peru's multicultural society.

Adventure seekers will find plenty to satisfy their thirst for thrills in Peru. Surfing the waves on the northern beaches, trekking the Inca Trail, sandboarding in Huacachina, or navigating the Amazonian rivers, the country is a playground for the active traveller.

Peru is an enchanting land that serves up an irresistible mix of natural beauty, historical wealth, and cultural vivacity.
