First Impressions of Peru (12 days)

The Andes, the second highest mountain range on earth, draws visitors from all over the world. While the elevations rival those in the Himalaya, the character of the mountains is more gentle and inviting. The green slopes in and around Cuzco are especially beautiful and striking.

Previous guests have described a trip through Peru as an incredible journey through one of the most interesting countries in South America!

Come with us as we visit many of Peru's most compelling places, diverse cultures, incredible scenery, archaeological sites, captivating museums, local markets and so much more.

You won't be disappointed.
