Peru is a land of mysteries, legends, and ancient cultures. Step into the past as you discover the country’s different traditions that people have preserved and still practice today. Surround yourself with impressive landscapes: from the arid desert and sand dunes on the coast, the snow-capped mountains and volcanoes in the Andes, to the lush Amazon rainforest. Indulge in incredible gourmet meals, fresh seafood and ceviche, or try unique fruits, different types of potatoes, and exquisite chocolate. Whether you enjoy culture, adventure, or nature, your experiences in Peru will become memories of a lifetime. 

 

Bolivia - straddling the Andes, is a land of gaunt mountains, cold desolate plateau and semi tropical lowlands. It is also called the Tibet of the Americas - the highest and most isolated of the Latin American republics. A landlocked country lying astride the widest stretch of the Andean Cordillera, Bolivia spills through a maze of tortured hills and valleys into the vast forests and savannahs of the Amazon and Paraná basins. Bolivia is also the most Indian country on the continent; over 50 % of the population are of pure American Indian blood and maintain traditional cultural values and belief systems. The country offers mind-blowing landscapes, colonial treasures, colorful indigenous cultures and remnants of mysterious ancient civilizations.

 

Chile is the longest country in the world and combines dramatic and contrasting natural landscapes that will steal your heart away. Get lost in Patagonia’s grandness with its soaring peaks and glaciers, stargaze in the world’s driest desert, learn about winemaking traditions in the valleys, visit the bustling and modern capital, and explore magical islands filled with mysteries and legends. Meet with locals and indigenous communities and let their kindness and hospitality be part of this unforgettable adventure.

Machu Picchu is on every traveler’s bucket list: it is undoubtedly one of the “must-see” archeological sites in the world. The most remarkable site from the Inca Empire was never found by the Spaniards and was re-discovered during the 20th century.
