On these pages you will find ideas for a trip to Peru to help you prepare for your trip. All these ideas are there just to get your imagination going; you can alter, mix and match them as you please. Your local agent will help you create a unique and unforgettable trip, just for you! Peru has three distinct parts, each with its own character: the Pacific coast, which is the most densely populated; the Andes range, with the highest mountain being the towering Huascarán at 6,768 metres; and the Amazon, which covers the largest part of the country. If you’re going, start with the must-see: Machu Picchu – fortunately not found by the Conquistadors – rediscovered in 1911. You should visit it at dawn to see the ruins shrouded in mist. This extraordinary site still clasps a few secrets to its bosom. Not far away, the Andes range draw ramblers and trekkers to magnificent landscapes. The ultimate rambling experience is the Inca Trail through exceptional archaeological sites. During your stay in Peru, you must stop in Cusco, the former capital of the Inca Empire. The Spanish erected their buildings, especially religious ones, over Inca constructions which they systematically destroyed, only sparing their characteristic foundations, which are still visible today with their large, perfectly cut and fitted stones. A voyage out of time awaits you in Cusco.

It might not be as famous as its illustrious neighbour, Salar de Uyuni, but Incahuasi is still an essential destination while on holiday in Bolivia.   Incahuasi is a mound of coral covered in cacti nearly 10 metres tall. The ochre of the rock and the green of the cactus contrast with the immaculate whiteness of the salt flat. You can take beautiful photos and play a game of optical illusions. What makes this site unique? During the rainy season, Incahuasi turns into an island. But don't worry, it's still accessible.  If like me, you decide to climb Incahuasi's small hills, remember to put your shoes on. Don't expect the giant cacti to be friendly if you dare to get too close to them! Once at the top, you can admire the full extent of the mythical salt flat.
