Peruvian Andes & Galapagos Islands

Lima → Baltra Island 14 days Up to 16

About this trip

Two of South America's biggest draws in one trip: the Peruvian Andes and the Galapagos Islands, covering history, culture, and wildlife in equal measure.

You start in Lima and Cusco before heading into the Sacred Valley, taking in Rainbow Mountain and Machu Picchu along the way. Then it's a shift in pace and scenery as you fly out to the Galapagos for a different kind of nature encounter altogether.

It suits travellers who want both the cultural depth of the Andes and the wildlife of the Galapagos, without having to book two separate trips.

What you'll do

  • Explore Lima and Cusco's history and food scene
  • Walk through the Sacred Valley's ruins and landscapes
  • See the coloured slopes of Rainbow Mountain
  • Visit the ruins of Machu Picchu
  • Spot sea turtles, sea lions and seabirds in the Galapagos Islands
Good to know
  • Combines high-altitude Andes travel with island hopping, so pack for very different climates
  • Suits those wanting both culture and wildlife rather than just one focus
