A lifetime of unforgettable discoveries

Peru is a magic world of natural beauty and a wealth of culture and history. The more you get to know it, the more you will be amazed of the wonders that can be discovered.

It is a unique country where you can travel through different time periods, from Caral, the oldest civilization in the Americas (2627 BC), through exceptional cultures that flourished in these lands over the centuries and the Incas, who built an empire nearly as far reaching and well organized as Caesar's Rome, to the colonial days when Lima was known as the City of Kings.

Come across picturesque villages and magnificent scenery throughout Peru, a fascinating country full of greatness. Sail the Titicaca, the highest navigable lake. Explore Cotahuasi and Colca, the deepest canyons. Float down the Amazon, the mightiest river. Immersed in Manu National Park, home of the greatest variety of species of flora and fauna.
