Highlights

Explore the mother of all Inca sites – Machu Picchu – on a guided tour of this 15th century citadel with an expert local guide.

Spend a few days in the UNESCO-recognised city of Cusco – the perfect place to sample Andean delicacies, wander through storied laneways or take in the mountain views over a Pisco sour.

Take a boat tour of Lake Titicaca – the world's highest navigable lake – and experience local life on the shores at a homestay with a Llachon family.

Get acquainted with the ornate churches, plazas and boulevards of Quito, Ecuador's lively capital, on a walking tour of the historic centre.

Observe giant tortoises at the Arnaldo Tupiza Tortoise Breeding Center on Santa Cruz – these nearly extinct creatures are one of the many incredible animals that call the Galapagos home.
