Lima, Cusco, Machupicchu & Titicaca Lake: Budget Trip

Start & end in Lima 9 days Up to 16

About this trip

Nine days across Peru's biggest draws: Lima, Cusco, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, and Lake Titicaca. It's a budget-focused route that still covers the main ground, from Inca history to Andean scenery to the world's highest navigable lake.

You'll spend time in the Sacred Valley and Cloud Forest before reaching Machu Picchu, then head on to Titicaca where local communities live on and around the water. A mix of guided sections and free time to explore on your own.
