Peru, the land of the Incas

Highlights Peru

Southern Peru is the birthplace of the famous Inca culture. This trip takes you past the highlights. Arequipa is the colonial jewel of the country and in the Colca Cañon you will admire the impressive nature and flight of the mighty condor. Lake Titicaca is the cradle of civilization in the Andes and still radiates its magic. Around Cuzco you will find yourself in the true heart of the land of the Incas. The countless Inca cities testify to the greatness of this culture.
