This epic 25-day trip takes you to the world’s highest-navigable lake (Titicaca), the world’s largest tropical rainforest (the Amazon), the world’s highest administrative capital (La Paz) and the world’s largest salt flats (Uyuni). On top of all that, it also includes the chance to trek Peru’s iconic Inca Trail before emerging at the Sun Gate above Machu Picchu – which isn’t a world-record holder, but probably should be for ‘most dramatic ancient city in the clouds’. In between the gasps, you’ll ramble through markets, sip Pisco sours and dig into mouthwatering food with the locals.
