Departing September 20, 2014, this tour brings travelers to learn about the enduring Peruvian cultures while seeing the breathtaking beauty of the Andes. Travel through this intriguing land visiting some of the world’s most legendary sites, including Machu Picchu, the "Lost City of the Incas."

  • Explore the historical center of Lima, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Admire the artwork at San Francisco Monastery and enter the catacombs. View the Government Center, the elegant Cathedral at Plaza de Armas, an abundance of colonial architecture, and the fashionable suburbs of San Isidro and Miraflores for insight into the daily life of the Limeños.
     
  • In Cuzco, learn the centuries-old methods of spinning, dyeing and weaving Andean traditional textiles during a visit to Awana Kancha, a living museum of the Peruvian Andes.
     
  • Visit the spectacular Ollantaytambo ruins, the only Inca settlement that has been continually inhabited since its inception.

  • Climb aboard the Machu Picchu train for breathtaking views through domed windows as you ride through the Andes to the “Lost City of the Incas.” Hidden by mountains and semi-tropical jungle, Machu Picchu is considered the most spectacular sight in South America.
