A land of ancient sun-worshipping Incas, enchanting architecture, crystal mountain peaks and rich culture; Peru has so much to offer anyone on their adventure holidays. Peru can transport adventure holiday makers back in time, to wander the ruins of once-great civilizations, trek through the Andes to on the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu (‘The Lost City of the Incas’), witness the mystical Nazca Lines from above and explore the monumental adobe temples that punctuate the desert coast.
A Peruvian adventure holiday can also transport you to a different world, to trek through the lush Amazonian Rainforest, see huge condors soaring down deep valleys, scale rugged Andean mountains or journey past the seemingly-endless Peruvian Desert. The rich heritage, beautiful landscapes and abundant wildlife of Peru sit alongside an energetic, thriving society. Each of Peru’s distinctive regions boasts a diversity of music and fiestas, as well as exquisite local cuisine, whilst Peru’s relaxed capital city, Lima, is a buzzing and cosmopolitan metropolis. For teenage holidays, family adventure holidays and solo adventures alike, Peru is gem of a country teeming with imagination and wonder.
