Machu Picchu
The magnificent ‘lost city’ stands on a high saddle, dominated by the jungle-clad peak of Wayna Picchu. The ruins are amazing, but it is also the setting that brings gasps of wonder. Just standing and looking out across the mountains, you can see why this spot was chosed by the Inca's to build this special place.
Andes to Cusco
A bus journey takes you through the Andes to Cusco, the old Inca capital. Nearby you’ll explore the vast, ruined fortress of Sacsayhuaman and Pisac’s bustling and colourful market. Cusco is not too large or daunting but still full of interest to be able to wander around and explore.
Lake Titicaca
Visiting the Uros Islands is literally like visiting a whole new world. These floating islands on Lake Titicaca, are home to the Uros who are a pre Incan people. The tortora reed, which grows here, is used to make their islands, houses and boats. Lake Titicaca is the highest navigatable lake in the world, sitting at 1,811m above sea level.
