Our journey to Peru begins in Lima by bus, boat, and train. Our route includes Chincha, known for its Afro-Peruvian culture and music, where we visit Hacienda San José, a historic colonial estate with underground tunnels.
In Paracas, we explore the Paracas National Reserve and visit the Islas Ballestas, where sea lions, penguins, and seabirds inhabit the rocky islands. Also included is Playa Roja, a red-sand beach formed by volcanic activity, and The Cathedral, a rock formation shaped by wind and waves, partially collapsed in 2007.
Continuing south, we explore Huacachina, a desert oasis surrounded by sand dunes, popular for sandboarding and dune buggies, before heading to the Nazca Lines, massive geoglyphs created by the Nazca culture between 500 BCE and 500 CE.
In Arequipa, a city built with white volcanic stone, the journey continues at Alpaca World to learn and explore the surroundings. From there, the route leads to Mirador Lagunillas, a high-altitude viewpoint overlooking lakes and Andean landscapes, and Puno Zero, a high-altitude region near Lake Titicaca.
The journey through the Sacred Valley includes Ollantaytambo, an Incan archaeological site with terraces and a fortress, followed by Machu Picchu, the 15th-century Incan citadel and UNESCO World Heritage Site.
After Machu Picchu, the journey reaches Cusco, a city known for its rich Incan and colonial history, vibrant markets, and iconic Plaza de Armas.
Exploration continues through Sacsayhuamán, an Incan ceremonial and military site known for its massive stone walls, Puka Pukara, an ancient military outpost, and Moray, an archaeological site with circular agricultural terraces used by the Incas for crop experimentation.
The journey extends to Salineras de Maras, a network of salt evaporation ponds used since Incan times, as well as the Chinchero Archaeological Site, featuring Incan terraces and colonial structures.
Lastly, the journey concludes at the Pisac Archaeological Site, an Incan area with terraces, temples, and burial sites. Through this journey, knowledge and understanding of the history and culture of each destination deepen.
