Few trips to Peru and Bolivia can possibly offer so much variety in less than 3 weeks. From the buzzing Lima, we fly across the backbone of the Andes to our rustic Amazon jungle lodge and with our naturalist guides explore this tropical rainforest. While in Cusco and the Sacred Valley we wander the Quechuan Indian markets and discover a variety of Spanish colonial and ancient Inca heritage. Hiram Bingham's discovery of Machu Picchu high in the Andes in 1911 revealed an incredible Inca architectural masterpiece, and this startling find provides a grand finale to our trek along the Inca Trail. On the trail, our unsurpassed expertise in organising treks in the Andes means we know the quietest places to camp, as we ascend from the jungle to the snow capped Andean peaks to complete our spectacular approach to Machu Picchu. Travelling to Lake Titicaca, we visit the Uros Indians who live on floating reed islands, before crossing the dramatic Altiplano to the thriving Bolivian capital of La Paz.
