Peru Travel Guide

The Peru travel experience is a unique journey of history, culture, food, and fantastic natural backdrops. The "Lost City of the Incas" is the big reason why people come to Peru. But there's much more to see beyond Machu Picchu. Puzzle over the mysterious Nazca Lines from the sky. Enjoy city life in the Spanish influenced Lima, Trujillo, and Arequipa, and their colonial-era homes, churches, monasteries, and museums. The islands of Lake Titicaca reveal a slice of raw ancient Andean culture. For natural wonders, Colca Canyon and Cotahuasi Canyon are the two deepest canyons in the world, and Cordillera Blanca mountain range in the north has 50 mountains higher than 18,000 feet.
