If marvelling at ancient cities, outstanding heritage and incredible scenery found nowhere else is what draws you to a destination, Peru might just be the perfect choice for you. It’s home to part of the Amazon rainforest, the Andes mountain range and the historic city of Cusco. But the real wonder lies in the world heritage site Machu Picchu, a lost Incan city set high in the Andes mountains.
At a glance
Hike the Inca Trail’s stone paths to arrive at dawn for an awe-inspiring sunrise view over Machu Picchu’s intricate terraces and temples backed by sheer peaks. Or take a scenic train through the Sacred Valley to explore the huge complex with help from a knowledgeable guide. Nothing compares to seeing this magnificent UNESCO World Heritage Site with your own eyes.
Ancient civilizations left cultural treasures across this biodiverse South American nation, creating intrigue around every corner. The cosmopolitan capital of Lima provides an energetic launchpad to Peru’s wonders. It boasts exemplary museums housing artifacts, as well as a world-class foodie scene. Nearby, stroll through Barranco, a historic district lined with colorful colonial architecture and public murals.
We’d also highly recommend Cusco for history lovers. Immerse yourself in ancient Inca atmosphere amid mighty fortress walls lined with carved granite blocks. Wander cobblestone avenues once traversed by Inca rulers, before you browse vibrant local markets selling Andean woven textiles and ceramics.
Adrenaline seekers can’t miss an adventure excursion to the Colca Canyon, one of the world’s deepest gorges. Look for majestic condors riding thermal drafts high above before soaking in the region’s hot springs. Or lose yourself amid the secluded natural beauty of Lake Titicaca.
From Machu Picchu’s magnificent ruins to the peaks of the Andes, Peru offers epic landscapes that have beckoned adventurers for centuries. Why not see for yourself?

Travel Information
A mountainous country with an incredible history, Peru is one for the bucket list. From the famous lost city of Machu Picchu in the soaring peaks of the Andes to the vastness of the Amazon jungle, there’s a lot to explore. Take a trail into the mountains and discover the remains of the Inca civilisation. You’ll find many world-class hotels to choose from in Peru, from well-established brands to charming boutique options.
Despite no laws enshrining same-sex marriage having been passed in Peru, legal protections against discrimination mean that LGBTQ+ travelers in Peru can enjoy the country without fear of persecution or challenge. Especially in larger cities, there are big gay scenes to be enjoyed.
Explore the capital city of Lima. Classic colonial architecture, modern buildings and bustling streets vie with the surrounding peaks of the Andes. Lima boasts a great collection of pre-conquistador art. If you like fish you must try ceviche.
Of course a trip to Peru wouldn’t be complete without a trip to iconic Machu Picchu.
Get off the beaten track with a visit to Lake Titicaca, South America’s largest lake and the world’s highest navigable body of water. The lake borders both Peru and Bolivia, and is surrounded by incredible mountains and glaciers. Be sure to visit the Uros Islands – a group of small artificial islands that are home to the Uros people – an indigenous group that predate the Incas!
Explore the Peruvian Amazon on a luxurious all-inclusive river cruise – complete with exquisite staterooms, gourmet food and premium beverages. Spend your days hiking the jungle and admiring the unique wildlife, then come home to your private jacuzzi. Whether you’re looking for adventure or relaxation, an Amazonian river cruise has something for everyone.
