Peru tours

View of the mountains from Kuelap

Perhaps the most varied and fascinating country in Latin America, Peru is best known as home of the Inca empire and location of Machu Picchu, the original lost jungle city that captures much of the mystery of South America.

Less well-known is that the whole country is blessed with archaeological sites, set amidst incredibly varied scenery ranging from the deserts of the Pacific through the high peaks of the Andes to the endless stretch of the Peruvian Amazon, and is populated by a wide range of people and cultures.

Ironically given what happened later, the Americas were first viewed as a land of Utopia by Renaissance Europe and the first explorers. Vespucci wrote "They live without king and without any form of authority, and each is his own master." A chronicler of Columbus: "...they go naked...and live in a golden age, simple and innocent, without laws, quarrels, or money, content to satisfy nature."

Testimonials: Peru was beyond my imagination. The tour was a gem. Lima tour is experienced, well-organized, efficient, and flexible. The most impressive guide was in Qusqo (the correct way, she taught us) city tour - a passionate, proud and knowledgeable guide. She represents the city's emotion which is superb & rare. They helped us to locate/claim our luggage, booked us the late flight to Iquitos & put us up at a very nice hotel in the main square where we could purchase shoes for the jungle. The tour went on........ Julie N, USA
