Termed “Kingdom of the Sun” Peru encompasses the essence of America and “the new world” in geography and in its mix of native Indian and European cultures. The traditional way of life of the Indians still retains validity and the landscape contrasts represent possibly one of best destinations scenically in the Americas. The Spanish conquistadors landed and preceded to ruthlessly search for gold, but never found the most illusive prize; “the Lost City of the Incas”. Machu Picchu; a world heritage built site, is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after destinations and continues to hold a sense of mystique for the traveller. The surrounding landscapes of Cuzco, Lake Titicaca with the “floating islands” built of reeds, and the continued presence of the Uros Indians in this habitat, add to the uniqueness of Peru. The amazing variety of stunning landscape places Peru in the top of the list of the most spectacular countries on earth. Of 103 possible ecological zones internationally, 83 are represented in Peru.

A short extension to view the Nazca Lines and other attractions associated with the Nazca Valley and its early inhabitants. It is believed that the Lines were created by an unidentified civilization between 500BC and 800AD. At least three major cultures are known to have inhabited the valley during pre-history; the Paracas (500BC-400AD, the Nazca (500AD-800AD, and the later Chincha who were overpowered by the Inca. Which culture is responsible for this major, sophisticated work of art remains a mystery. Includes: Return airport transfers, return transfers by public bus to Nazca, 2 nights accommodation with breakfast, box-lunch on day 2, guided tours and entry fees. |
