Why go
Inca stone up close
In Ollantaytambo, at Sacsayhuamán and across Machu Picchu, huge blocks sit so tightly together that nothing slips between them. No photo prepares you for it.
Walking the high Andes
Rainbow Mountain's striped ridges sit above 5,000 metres, and the trail past the Seven Lakes keeps snow-capped Ausangate in view all day. Alpacas included.
Arequipa and the Colca Canyon
A city built from pale volcanic stone, then a canyon so deep that Andean condors glide below you on the morning air.
From desert to lake
Fly over the Nazca Lines, then cross to Lake Titicaca for the reed islands of the Uros and a quiet night on Amantaní.
