A rich combination of natural wonders and cultural treasures makes Peru an exceptionally alluring destination for travellers with a sense of adventure. Its vast geographical diversity, from coastal desert up to the snow-capped Andes and on into tropical rainforest, creates an extraordinary range of landscapes home to a dazzling array of flora and fauna.
History and culture are also alive in great Inca remains such as the sanctuary of Machu Picchu, the breathtaking stone walls of Sacsayhuaman, the thriving traditional craft markets and the colonial baroque churches and cathedrals.
To experience Peru’s greatest wonders, visitors should marvel at Lima’s treasuries of ancient gold, before moving on to Cusco’s many historic sites. From here an unforgettable journey aboard the luxury Hiram Bigham train, following the swirling Urubamba river, leads to majestic Machu Picchu, one of the world’s major heritage sites. Other great destinations include Arequipa, the Colca Canyon and the magical Lake Titicaca in Puno.
