Sample Program 4
Day 1 · International - Lima: Arrival in Lima, the capital that never fails to surprise. Depending on your arrival time, settle in and enjoy the city's world-class gastronomy.
Day 2 · Lima - Cusco - Sacred Valley: Early flight to Cusco and descent to the Sacred Valley — a smart strategy to acclimatize gradually among Andean landscapes and indigenous markets.
Day 3 · Sacred Valley: A day to explore the valley's highlights: the ruins of Pisac and Ollantaytambo, the circular terraces of Moray, and the salt mines of Maras. For those seeking more, we can include soft adventure activities such as hiking, horseback riding, cycling, or zipline.
Day 4 · Sacred Valley - Machu Picchu - Cusco: Train to Aguas Calientes and ascent to Machu Picchu, the lost citadel of the Incas and one of the most breathtaking wonders on the planet. Arrival in Cusco late afternoon or evening.
Day 5 · Cusco: A full day in Cusco: the Qorikancha, the Plaza de Armas, the neighborhoods of San Blas, and the imposing fortress of Sacsayhuamán, where the size of the stones remains a mystery without a satisfying answer.
Day 6 · Cusco - Lima - Iquitos - Amazon Cruise: Flight to Lima and connection to Iquitos for embarkation on the river cruise. The Amazon receives the traveler in all its vastness, and the first sunset over the river already justifies the detour.
Day 7 · Amazon Cruise: Navigation through tributaries and oxbow lakes with guided boat excursions and jungle walks. The forest reveals itself at every bend in the river, generous and unhurried.
Day 8 · Amazon Cruise: Another day of river exploration: piranha fishing, pink dolphin spotting, and visits to riverside communities where life flows at the rhythm of the water.
Day 9 · Amazon Cruise - Lima: Disembarkation in Iquitos and flight to Lima. The flight arrives mid-afternoon, leaving the evening free to dine out on your own.
Day 10 · Lima: Morning in Lima's historic center: the Plaza Mayor, the Cathedral, the Convent of San Francisco with its catacombs, and the Larco Museum with its extraordinary pre-Columbian collection. The afternoon is free to explore Lima on your own.
Day 11 · Lima - International: Morning in modern Lima: Miraflores, Barranco, and San Isidro, with time for a final Peruvian meal before the transfer to the airport for your international departure.
