Ben Fogle Says

"I've helped The Adventure Company put this trip together based on my experiences in Peru. I love the remote beauty of Lake Titicaca and was humbled by the warmth and friendliness of the Peruvian people. This trip will give you an insight into some of the less seen places and take you all the way up to Machu Picchu."

"Machu Picchu must surely rank as one of the greatest man-made wonders in the world... I loved it so much I named my dog, Inca"

Kayaking on Lake Titicaca

The highest navigable lake in the world and the birthplace of the Inca empire, Titicaca is a stunning expanse of vibrant blue water. Kayak from a peninsula to the floating islands and arrive in style. The air here feels clear and pure, the skies seem to go on forever. The snowy peaks that flank the lake provide a stunning backdrop for this exciting adventure. 

Extend your trip

Extend your trip by adding an Amazon extension to explire Peru's best kept secret. Here the amazon basin is diverse and untouched. You can also add a Galapagos cruise to include another incredible highlight and wildlife hotspot. If you want to include both, you can so please enquire. 

New for 2012 is an incredible Iguacu Falls extension which means you can combine Machu Picchu with the falls for a Latin American adventure spanning 2 countries and 2 places surely on everyone's list to see!
