PERU & Bolivia: Tour of the Incas
2021 Aug 31 - Sept 12
La Paz and Salar de Uyuni in BOLIVIA
Cuzco and Machu Picchu in P E R U
BOLIVIA:
Superlative in its natural beauty, rugged, vexing, complex and slightly nerve-racking, Bolivia is one of South America’s most diverse and intriguing nations.
- National Geographic
Salar de Uyuni - More than just a blindingly white expanse, the alien landscapes of Bolivia’s Salar de Uyuni and its surreal surrounding deserts is a highlight of the South American trail.- CultureTrip
Salar de Uyuni - An evocative and eerie sight, the world’s largest salt flat measures 12,106 sq km and sits at 3653m (11,984ft). When the surface is dry, the salar is a pure white expanse of the greatest nothing imaginable – just blue sky, white ground and you. When there’s a little water, the surface perfectly reflects the clouds and the blue altiplano sky, and the horizon disappears. If you’re driving across the surface at such times, the effect is surreal; it’s hard to believe that you’re not flying through the clouds. - Lonely Planet
P E R U :
Cusco- Birthplace of the world
Seductive, striking and natural, Cusco’s history lives in its streets, squares, valleys and towns. Stunning destinations and examples of fine engineering by Inca stonemasons can be seen in Choquequirao, Saysayhuamán, Kenko, Tambomachay, Ollantaytambo and Machu Picchu, the Inca jewel built with the wisdom of the ancient Peruvians in an ecological environment. Captivating landscapes such as the Sacred Valley, where the mountains are clothed by terraces.
URUMBABA Valley
The Sacred Valley is a popular destination in Peru’s Cusco area, and a day trip is sure to be filled with many magical moments.
There are numerous monuments to admire and you’ll pass through a number of towns and villages, each with their own unique flavor.
The verdant Urubamba Valley is given life by the gushing Urubamba River, home to native wildlife.
Another highlight of the valley is Pisac with its bustling traditional market- browse an array of handicrafts and souvenirs and have light-hearted fun as you barter with vendors to secure the fairest prices for all.
Various activities include rafting, hiking, exciting quad biking and thrilling zip line adventures.
Pisac Town
Boasting one of the area’s most vibrant markets, you’ll find fresh produce, household essentials, handicrafts, clothes, souvenirs, and more.
The colonial village sits beneath a hilltop Incan fortress, with an ancient sundial, temple remains, plazas, foundations, and terraces.
There are several places where old and young alike can delight in getting up close and personal with alpacas and other creatures.
Examples include Awana Kancha and the Living Museum of the Andes.
From hiking past pristine mountain lakes to relaxing yoga workshops, there are many activities to try too.
MACHU PICCHU
Machu Picchu is an Incan citadel set high in the Andes Mountains in Peru, above the Urubamba River valley. Built in the 15th century and later abandoned, it’s renowned for its sophisticated dry-stone walls that fuse huge blocks without the use of mortar, intriguing buildings that play on astronomical alignments and panoramic views. Its exact former use remains a mystery.
It is 80 kilometres (50 miles) northwest of Cusco, on the crest of the mountain Machu Picchu, located about 2,430 metres (7,970 feet) above mean sea level, over 1,000 metres (3,300 ft) lower than Cusco, which has an elevation of 3,400 metres (11,200 ft).
