About this experience

The 13-day Peru Fantástico Tour is a complete experience designed for travelers who want to explore the natural and cultural wonders of Peru, including Lima, Paracas, Huacachina, Cusco, Machu Picchu and Lake Titicaca.

Get ready to embark on a journey that combines emotion, breathtaking landscapes, ancestral legacy and the living essence of Peru. This 13-day tour has been designed for those who want to get to know in depth the natural and cultural jewels of the country, from the coasts of the Pacific to the Andean highlands, passing through millenary cities, archaeological sanctuaries and dreamlike settings.

Your experience begins in Lima, the Peruvian capital, with a warm welcome and a free afternoon in which you can acclimatize and tour the modern district of Miraflores, or even plan a gastronomic visit if time permits. Then, you will head south, through deserts and coastal valleys, to get to know the impressive Ballestas Islands in Paracas, home to a fascinating marine fauna, and then continue to Ica, where you will live an unforgettable day among vineyards and the desert dunes in the Huacachina, aboard buggies and practicing sandboarding.

Returning to Lima, the next day will be dedicated to exploring its cultural richness: you will tour the Historic Center, with its colonial mansions and majestic squares, and you will culminate with a visit to the Larco Museum, one of the most important in Latin America, known for its pre-Columbian collection.

From there, you will fly to the imperial city of Cusco, where your immersion in the Inca legacy will begin. Your first afternoon in this millenary city will be full of history, with a city tour that will take you from the Cathedral to the Temple of the Sun (Koricancha) and the archaeological sites of Sacsayhuamán, Qenqo, Pucapucara and Tambomachay, located in the heights.

The adventure continues with the visit to Moray, an ancient Inca agricultural laboratory, and the Maras Salt Mines, where hundreds of salt pools create a unique visual spectacle. Afterwards, you will face the challenge of the Rainbow Mountain (Vinicunca), where the effort is rewarded with one of the most striking views on the planet.

The trip will then take you to the heart of the Sacred Valley of the Incas, touring the markets of Pisac, enjoying a buffet lunch and exploring the fortress of Ollantaytambo, before living one of the peak moments: the full day in the citadel of Machu Picchu. Accompanied by a specialized guide, you will discover the secrets of this sacred place, considered one of the seven wonders of the modern world.

As if that were not enough, you will also ascend to the majestic Humantay Lagoon, located at more than 4,200 meters above sea level, a mirror of turquoise water surrounded by imposing snow peaks, which will connect you with the pure energy of the Andes.

From Cusco, the route continues to Puno, through the famous Ruta del Sol, making stops at colonial temples, museums and panoramic viewpoints. Already in the highlands, you will navigate Lake Titicaca, the highest in the world, where you will get to know the fascinating Floating Islands of the Uros and the textile island of Taquile, where traditions are preserved intact.

The experience culminates with a visit to the Fertility Temple (Inca Uyo) and the mystical portal of Amaru Muru, laden with legends and spiritual symbolism, before your departure from the Juliaca airport.

With your soul full of learning, new friendships and hundreds of incredible photographs, you will say goodbye to Peru knowing that you have lived one of the most enriching adventures of your life.
