Peru’s Treasures: Machu Picchu & Rainforest

Start & end in Lima 9 days Up to 16

About this trip

Nine days that take you from Lima to Cusco, through the Sacred Valley to Machu Picchu, then down into the Amazon rainforest. It is a solid cross-section of Peru: colonial city, Andean history, and jungle, without trying to cram in more than that.

The pace is moderate and fully guided throughout, so you are not left figuring out logistics between the mountains and the rainforest. Good for families or groups who want the big Peru landmarks alongside real time among wildlife and local communities.

What you'll do

  • Explore Lima before heading into the highlands
  • Wander Cusco and the Sacred Valley's Inca sites
  • Visit Machu Picchu
  • Venture into the Amazon rainforest for wildlife spotting
  • Meet local communities and see rainforest traditions firsthand
Good to know
  • Moderate pace with a mix of city, mountain, and jungle stops
  • Fully guided, so suited to those who prefer not to plan logistics themselves
  • Altitude changes between Cusco and the rainforest are worth preparing for
