For those short on time or just seeking a taste of Peru’s most famous sights look no further than Peru Express. Starting in the capital Lima, explore both the modern and historic parts of the city. You have time in the Miraflores district, home to Lima’s famous clifftops overlooking the Pacific and some of the city’s best restaurants as well as the colonial era downtown area and its eclectic mix of buildings and architecture.
High in the Andes, Cuzco is the capital of the Inca Empire. Cobbled streets and striking architecture reflects Peru’s ancient past and rich history. Indigenous markets interwoven with ancient Inca ruins are found in the Sacred Valley. A gateway between the city of Cuzco and the famous Machu Picchu, this area is more than just a stop off with a host of exciting activities and interaction with locals dressed in vibrant, traditional clothes.
The highlight of the trip is travelling by train to Machu Picchu, the famous Inca Citadel lost in time since the 15th century and discovered in 1911. Nestled between picturesque peaks and with a dramatic backdrop of cloud forest covered mountains, take time to learn and explore about this magical area.
The Peru Express is a tailor-made itinerary that can be arranged for any time of year and and flexible to be amended should you wish to spend longer in any part of the country, include different regions in Peru or simply change any of the suggested accommodation or excursions.
