About this trip
Seven days through Peru's Inca heartland, taking in the country's best-known archaeological sites without rushing between them. You start in Lima before heading up into the Andes, where the pace slows to match the altitude.
Cusco and the Sacred Valley give you time to understand the Inca Empire before you reach Machu Picchu itself, high above the valley floor. It's an easy-going, partially guided trip suited to families or anyone wanting the classics done properly rather than fast.
