Peru offers incredible history, heritage, beauty of countless cultural
landscapes, outstanding biodiversity, and living cultures.

Larger than Portugal, Spain, France, and Germany all together, Peru has one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world. This country covers a large portion of the Central Andes, a narrow coastal desert line along the Pacific Ocean, but most of all, 60% of it remains inside the realm of the Amazon basin. Peru´s spectacular geography is expressed in over 150 different life zones or ecosystems, including some of the driest deserts on Earth, untouched cloud forests, extensive Puna and Altiplano grasslands, several permanent snow peaks crowning sub-tropical valleys, and several millions of hectares of remote and well-preserved Amazon rainforests.

This biogeographic richness makes Peru one of the 10 most biodiverse countries on the Planet, and therefore it is an exciting place, the perfect one, for people who want to experience culture, nature tourism, adventure, trekking, biking, photography, bird watching, and scientific research.

Best of Peru

 

Taquile800Imagine yourself travelling and experiencing the enigmatic Nazca Lines, the surreal Paracas Peninsula to observe unique marine wildlife, or the wild vicuñas still grazing puna grasslands not far from the coastline. Even more, imagine crossing the steel blue waters of Lake Titicaca, hiking the impressive Colca and Cotahuasi canyons where the Andean Condor soars, also enjoy the warm weather and beauty of the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Have a walking tour in Cusco, the ancient capital of the Inca empire that proudly shows its past and several closer Incan archaeological parks, or the mysterious Citadel of Machu Picchu shrouded in clouds, to where some arrive after hiking the Inca Trail; probably the most classical hike in the Americas.

Cusco – Machu Picchu
