Peru - is home to a plethora of world-famous South American sights: Machu Picchu, ‘Lost City of the Incas,’ the mysterious Nazca Lines, the royal tombs of Sipan, rainforests of the upper Amazon River; and majestic Andes Mountains. Add to that Colca Canyon, twice as deep as the Grand Canyon, and Lake Titicaca, the world’s highest navigable body of water, and Peru becomes an irresistible destination. No other country on the continent has more to offer the traveler in the way of archaeological wonders. But equally impressive is the way in which Peru has managed to preserve its ancient cultures and traditions, as found in the villages of Pisaq and Wiloq, where families live as their Inca ancestors did more than 500 years ago. Peru is ever creating new ways for travelers to experience the country with every comfort and convenience, from domed trains to Machu Picchu, to cruises and eco-lodges in remote Amazonian headwaters. There is no destination more rewarding or richer in history, legends, and natural beauty.

Embark on your adventure in the largest unexplored wilderness on earth – The Amazon.
For example, you may: Eke your way through a network of black water streams to a flood forest habitat, fish for piranhas and possibly spot some of the hiding wildlife. With luck, you might be able to see fresh-water pink dolphins.
Journey upriver with hundreds of parrots and macaws starting their morning flight on a dugout journey through winding streams, bordered by native huts and abundant flora, the canopy towering over our heads while listening to the sounds of the rainforest; hike through the rainforest in search of exquisite birds, rare orchids and butterflies; visit a native community and learn about these gracious peoples’ lifestyles, traditions and medicinal plants.
Amazon Adventures are available as part of our Ecuador, Peru and Brazil Tour Packages.
