Upon arrival to the “City of Kings” you will have the opportunity to appreciate the food, culture, architecture and art in the capital of the World’s most diverse country. A short flight then sees you arriving to the town of Puerto Maldonado located in the southern part of the Peruvian Amazon basin. The lodge is about an hour’s canoe ride from Puerto Maldonado adjacent to the Tambopata National Park. A compact yet thorough excursion, featuring superb activities and explorations, that permits you to discover a wide diversity of ecosystems subsisting in the Amazon rainforest and to explore the rich biodiversity within the Tambopata region. The wildlife is amazing, from giant and colorful parrots, to toucans, macaws, tapir, tamarin, owl, the gorgeous Southern Amazon Red Squirrel, as well as a large variety of monkeys. |

A boat ride along the Madre Dios River and short flight sees you arriving to the Andes Mountains and the Imperial City of Cusco, centre of the Incan empire referred to as "the navel of the World". Here you will visit Incan ruins, take in 500 year old Spanish architecture and learn about the indigenous Aymara and Quechua peoples. From Cusco set out through stunning Andean scenery to the Sacred Valley of the Incas where you will visit colourful local markets and imposing Inca fortresses before setting off on the Inca trail.
The Trek combines a stunning mix of Incan ruins and mountain scenery.Following the trail you will gracefully traverses through high-mountain desert, cloud forest, mountain passes and orchid-rich jungle on your way to "The Lost City of the Incas", Machu Picchu. No other place on Earth combines such spectacular natural beauty with such intrigue. Over a distance of only 45km and reaching elevations around 4200m you will traverse and transcend both space and time as you experience the same stunning views and inexplicable sense of power the ancient Incas did on their pilgrimage to Machu Picchu during the height of the Incan Empire.Returning to the Sacred Valley you will have a chance to relax and visit the local community of Chichubamba, raft the Sacred River Vilcanota, and experience the mountain views on a true mountain bike trip visiting the Incan ruins of Chinchero and Moray and the salt mines of Maras before returning to Cusco. |

From Cusco you will board the Inka Express Bus, making your way high into the Altiplano you will arrive to the city of Puno on the World’s highest navigable lake.

Taking a little travelled route you will stop at the Ancient Aymaran ruins of Sillustani and visit local communities along the way to the rim of world's deepest canyon, Colca Canyon to bathe in the thermal springs and view condors in flight. The "White City" of Arequipa is rimmed by three Volcanoes and home to the 16th-century Santa Catalina Convent,where the inhabitants have lived cut off from the outside world for more than 400 years is your next stop. After visiting the city you will climb to the Top of Misti Volcano on a 2 day hike camping at 4600m before ascending to the summit at 5822m (weather permitting).
