This trip explores the lands of Peru’s ancient civilisations. At Cusco, you can explore the Inca Sacred Valley and have a choice of either trekking the Inca Trail or taking the train to Machu Picchu. At Nazca there is the option of flying over the Nazca Lines. You will take a boat to the Ballestas Islands, famed for their marine life, and visit the Colca Canyon to see the Condors. You will traverse remote mountain passes in the stunning Andes that most visitors fly across. You will visit the great Lake Titicaca and have the chance to meet the indigenous Indian peoples in their remote villages.
Operating our own fully equipped vehicles with two western crew members allows you secure hassle free travel. You will travel in a comfortable well maintained, safely driven expedition vehicle that will take you from A to B with a minimum of fuss. Our vehicles are fully lockable and have safes for added security. This trip provides a secure way to explore an unfamiliar world.
Most people will be aged in their twenties or thirties, but we do have a number of older participants. Our groups are international and they come from all walks of life. The mix of sexes is usually even, some come as couples but most are individuals. Some come as seasoned travellers, others are just starting out. But what they all share is a love of adventure and discovery.
