In the morning, explore Lima´s old area, a UNESCO World Heritage Site packed with fascinating historic buildings. Start with a scenic tour in the colonial downtown, which radiates from the Main Square, where you can appreciate the grandiose architecture of the Spanish Empire. Stroll over to the Cathedral, which was begun in the 16th century and took 80 years to build. Then visit the Casa Aliaga, a colonial mansion granted in 1535 by chief conquistador Francisco Pizarro to Jerónimo de Aliaga, one of his captains. This is the only house from that time that still belongs to the same family after all these centuries.

Continue to Larco Museum, located in the traditional Pueblo Libre district, which is housed in a beautifully restored viceregal mansion built on a seventh-century a pre-Columbian pyramid. The museum boasts the most complete pre-Hispanic collection of gold and silver artefacts, as well as pieces of erotic art.

Upon your arrival in Arequipa, a transportation will be waiting for you at the airport to take you to your hotel. There will also be a guide who will tell you about the city’s attractions and services and finally assist you with your check-in.

A day filled with beautiful sights. You leave the city via Yura, a district characterised by its rugged scenery, hills and ravines. You enter Pampa Cañahuas Reserve, an extensive plain where you can see vicuñas, the indigenous Andean camelid that is a national symbol. Then to Vizcachani, Pampas de Toccra, up to the crater of the volcano Chucura and on to Mirador de los Andes at Patapampa (4800 m.a.s.l.) where the volcanoes surrounding Arequipa can be seen. Lunch will be served in the village of Chivay and in the afternoon you can rest in the hotel, or visit the local thermal springs.

A new day for visual delights. Visit Cruz del Cóndor to see the Colca Valley (the second deepest canyon in the world, more than 4 kilometres at its deepest part) and the juge and majestic condor flying a few metres away. You will visit the villages of Pinchollo, Maca, Achoma, Yanque and the vantage points at Antahuilque and Choquetico, on your return to Chivay. From here you will leave for Puno taking the turn-off to Patahuasi. More great beauty: petrified forests, blue lakes populated by flamingoes at more than 4,000 metres above sea level. You reach Puno after six hours.

Our guide will pick you up from the hotel in Puno very early in the morning, to take a two-hour motor excursion on the waters of Lake Titicaca to the unique Floating “Islands” of the Uros. The Uros are an ancient culture that inhabits a series of artificial islands built on the basis of reeds growing in the lake itself. These are constructed by weaving reed in the areas where it grows thicker and thus forming a natural layer. On it, they build their houses and cook outdoors in order to prevent fires.

After having experienced some of the ancient traditions of the local people, you continue your motorboat trip to Amantani Island. This island is inhabited by Quechua-speaking natives still governed by their ancient traditions, whose main occupations are the production of ceramics and textiles. The positive energy of this Island is so powerful that it is known as the “Love Island”. Lunch. Upon arrival to the island, accommodation and overnight at the house of a local islander to enjoy the hospitality of a typical Amantani home. Dinner included.

After breakfast, you have time to stroll at leisure through the quaint streets of this colourful island. Late morning, you take a motor-boat to Taquile Island, also inhabited by Quechua-speaking natives who have developed efficient and unique social systems, as well as fine hand weaving techniques, down through the generations. It is necessary to go up a stairway of more than 567 steps-streaks of stone that wind their way among greenery platforms to arrive at the Town of Taquile where we will have a break to eat. By the afternoon, you will return to Puno and in the evening you will arrive at the hotel.

A transportation service will pick you up from your hotel at the established time and you will be transferred to the bus station, where you will be assisted by a representative. During the morning you will be transferred from Puno to Cusco by bus, passing by spectacular locations on the way such as the town of Andahuaylillas, The Temple of Wiracocha and La Raya, the limit between Cusco and Puno over 4313 masl. The bus has a heating system, guides in English and Spanish, TV / Video, interactive video of the route, GPS, free WiFi, hot drinks on the way (subject to request) and lunch buffet in a local restaurant.

This town is also known as “Machu Picchu Pueblo” and is the last stop before the entrance to the remains of the most important archaeological site in Peru.

In Aguas Calientes, you will find the railway station, a crafts market, restaurants and accommodation of different categories for those who prefer to spend the night at the foot of the mountain and climb it early. Finally, after a short transfer by bus from Aguas Calientes you will reach Machu Picchu, a masterpiece of engineering and architecture that is believed served as a sanctuary and retreat for the Inca Pachacutec (1438 – 1572).
