One of South America’s top destinations, Peru is best known for its countless Inca ruins, including the magnificent “lost city” of Machu Picchu in the rugged Andean highlands. Epic adventures also unfold in vast deserts, coastal plains, and the lush tropical rainforests in the Amazon River Basin at Manu National Park.
To explore Inca ruins at Machu Picchu, cruise the bio-diverse Amazon, fly over the pre-Inca Nazca lines (giant drawings in the desert), and jump into Lima’s buzzing cultural scene.
