Sacred Valley: Connect with Locals over a Be My Guest experience lunch, learn about the culture surrounding the production of Giant White Corn. Our hosts will demonstrate the differences between traditional farming techniques and the newer technologies used today.
Lima: Dive into the rich history of Casona San Marcos, an ancient building in Lima now part of the property of a university. Learn to play the “cajón” (meaning “box” or drawer”) box-shaped percussion instrument played by slapping the faces with the hands, fingers, or sometimes implements. Continue your musical discovery trying the basic steps of “musica negra”, a dance that originated in Chincha (near Paracas) that is popular during over the Christmas season. Over your lesson, try a snack from a “pregonero”, a vendor who specializes in selling a typical snack through boisterous advertising in the city streets.
Sacred Valley: We'll Dive into Culture and meet a Quechua Shaman who will perform a ceremony welcoming you to Peru.
Puno: Bring Peru’s culture to life as you decorate your own torito de Pucará – a colourful ceramic bull steeped in Andean tradition. Found on rooftops across the region, these painted icons symbolise protection and prosperity, offering a hands-on way to connect with local heritage through creativity.
Nazca: Take to the skies on your Peru tour to see the iconic Nazca Lines, archaeological enigmas scratched in the ground 500 B.C. and A.D. 500. Gaze down in awe of these massive designs and patterns you can only view from above. Your private flight will show you many of the lines, complete with their names and a bit of history. From above, you’ll observe the different types: straight, geometric (such as triangles, rectangles, trapezoids, spirals, arrows, zigzags, and wavy lines), and pictorial (including a spider, hummingbird, cactus plant, monkey, whale, llama, duck, flower, tree, lizard, dog, and even a mysterious humanoid figure). Some of the animal geoglyphs are up to 1,200 feet long! You’ll also learn why the Nazca culture created these lines in the desert plains of the Rio Grande de Nazca River basin and how the Nazca people were able to carve out such massive designs.
Uncover the mysteries of Peru and Ecuador on the 13-day "Land of the Incas" tour package, beginning in Lima and culminating in Quito. This immersive journey is tailored for experienced travelers seeking a blend of adventure and cultural depth. Delve into the heart of Incan civilization with guided visits to Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo, and the imposing Sacsayhuaman fortress. Enjoy the rare privilege of soaring above the enigmatic Nazca Lines in a private plane and cruising by boat to Taquile Island, a UNESCO treasure on Lake Titicaca. The trip also brings you face-to-face with abundant wildlife on the Ballestas Islands, where penguins, blue-footed boobies, whales, and sea lions thrive. Throughout, you'll experience moderate physical activity, perfect for those eager to engage yet prefer comfort and insightful exploration. The tour includes thoughtfully chosen accommodations, seamless transport, meals, and expert guidance, ensuring a hassle-free experience. What truly sets this tour apart is its access to exclusive experiences—like private flights and boat rides—providing unique perspectives on Peru’s iconic wonders and vibrant biodiversity.
