Peru

Inca citadels, Andean peaks and the kitchen of South America

What it's famous for

01

Machu Picchu

The lost Inca city on a cloud-wrapped ridge — reached by the classic trek or a scenic mountain train.

02

Andean culture

The Sacred Valley's markets, weavers and villages where Quechua and Inca traditions live on.

03

World-class cuisine

Lima's restaurants top global lists — ceviche, hundreds of potatoes and Andes-meets-Asia fusion.

04

Amazon & wildlife

The rainforest covers half the country — river lodges, macaws and monkeys deep in the jungle.
