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.

While on holiday in Bolivia, one of my first stops before crossing the great Salar de Uyuni was at Isla Incahuasi.   In the middle of this vast emptiness rises this huge sort of hill. It's actually a kind of volcanic mountain covered in large cacti. Immediately the summit becomes a magnet. The first thing I thought when I arrived was that maybe I'd be able to see something other than this infinity of whiteness from the top. I'd definitely recommend going and seeing it. Once you get to the top, even if you squint against the cold and strong wind, there's nothing... Nothing but the salt desert until it meets the sky on the horizon. The feeling you have is already wonderful and that's only after having a glimpse of what awaits you a little further on.
