About this tour

Journey from Lima to Cusco, ticking off Peru's must-sees and off-the-beaten-track gems. This tour combines hikes around the country's highlights with trekking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. Journey to the mysterious Nazca Lines, visit the 'White City' of Arequipa, see the impressive Colca Canyon and spend a night on Taquile Island, all before finishing up in cosmopolitan Cusco, the former Inca capital. Colca Canyon - Witness condors flying above one of the world's deepest canyons. Lake Titicaca - Get to grips with island life at a homestay on the stunning lake. Machu Picchu - Follow the Inca Trail before ticking Machu Picchu off your bucket list. Quarry Trail - When Inca permits have sold out, we offer the Quarry Trek, a quieter route with fewer crowds and spectacular views, joining the final day of the Inca Trail into Machu Picchu.
