Overview & Highlights

This comfortable group holiday whizzes you through Peru’s must-see highlights. Visit Lima on the Pacific coast, Cusco, Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley in the Andes. Superb landscapes and a mélange of cultural riches.

On this 10 day group holiday you will visit all the ultimate highlights of Peru. Ruined temples and fortresses of the Inca Empire surround Cusco, once the heart of the Inca world and now a graceful homage to Spanish colonial architecture. Beyond the ancient terraced hillsides of the Sacred Valley of the Incas lies the archaeological site at Machu Picchu, a must-see on the world’s scale. Finally, no trip to Peru is complete without a scenic trip across the wind-buffeted plains of the altiplano to the shores of the world’s highest navigable lake, Titicaca, a sacred body of water rimmed by snow-mantled Andean mountains.

The welcoming Peruvian people, combined with the country's rich culture and diverse and beautiful scenery, make Peru an easy place to fall in love with: the Inca temples of Machu Picchu; Cusco and the Sacred Valley; Lake Titicaca's vast expanse of shimmering sapphire waters are its top sights.

What our clients say

  • "The holiday was wide-ranging, expertly organised and allowed us time to go 'off-tour' and enjoy the locations independently which I appreciated, given the swift nature of the journey."

Chris Rendell-Dunn - Travel Expert

Anglo-Peruvian Chris grew up in Lima and spent much of his adult life in between London and Cusco as a tour leader, before settling permanently in our London-based Tailor-made and Group Tours sales team.

Arriving at Machu Picchu is one of the most memorable experiences i've ever had. As you enter the site and take your first glimpse of the myriad of agricultural terraces and impressive temples slowly coming into view. A truly stunning view.
