Every day of your trip, with where you'll spend the night.
Day 1
Your private driver welcomes you in the arrivals hall and escorts you along the coast to your hotel in Miraflores. The rest of the day is yours: stroll the clifftop malecón, watch paragliders drift over the Pacific and enjoy a first taste of the cuisine that has made Lima one of the great food capitals of the world.
Day 2
Ocean in the morning, desert in the afternoon. Leave Lima early for Paracas and sail to the Ballestas Islands, the “Peruvian Galápagos”, passing the giant Candelabra geoglyph to see sea lions, Humboldt penguins and thousands of seabirds. Then trade sea spray for sand at the Huacachina Oasis, a lagoon framed by towering dunes, before continuing to Nazca, land of the mysterious lines.
Day 3
A morning in the sky, an afternoon on the road. Your light aircraft circles the hummingbird, the monkey and the other giant figures of the Nazca Lines, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of archaeology’s greatest unsolved puzzles. Then relax on the scenic journey through desert valleys and along coastal cliffs to Arequipa, Peru’s elegant “White City”.
Day 4
A well-earned pause between the desert and the Andes. Wander the colorful streets of the Santa Catalina Monastery, a city within the city, admire El Misti volcano from the Yanahuara viewpoint, visit the Museo Santuarios Andinos, home of the Inca ice maiden “Juanita”, or simply rest and acclimatize at approx. 2,335 m.
Day 5
Cross the high plateau through the Salinas y Aguada Blanca reserve, where wild vicuñas graze, to the Patapampa viewpoint (approx. 4,900 m), surrounded by volcanoes. Descend into the Colca Valley, where communities still farm the terraces carved by their ancestors, and end the day soaking in natural hot springs as the sun sets over the Andes.
Day 6
Set out early for the Cruz del Cóndor viewpoint, perched above one of the deepest canyons in the world, to watch Andean condors ride the morning thermals. After lunch in Chivay, continue by tourist bus across the altiplano, past high-altitude lagoons and herds of llamas and alpacas, to Puno on the shores of Lake Titicaca.
Day 7
Set sail on Lake Titicaca, the world’s highest navigable lake. First stop: the Uros Floating Islands, woven entirely from totora reeds by families who still live on them today. Continue to Taquile Island, whose textile art is recognized by UNESCO and where the men are master knitters, for a walk along its stone paths and a lunch of fresh lake trout with views of the Bolivian Andes.
Day 8
From the shores of Titicaca to the capital of the Incas. Cross La Raya Pass at over 4,300 m, where snow-capped peaks rise above herds of llamas and alpacas, then descend into green Andean valleys. Along the way, discover the monoliths of Pucará, the colossal Inca temple of Raqchi and the golden interior of Andahuaylillas, the “Sistine Chapel of the Americas”.
Day 9
Board a panoramic train through the Sacred Valley, following the Urubamba River as the landscape turns from Andean fields to cloud forest. Arrive in Aguas Calientes, at the foot of Machu Picchu, and spend a relaxed afternoon in this mountain town.
Day 10
Take an early bus up to Machu Picchu and discover the Inca citadel with your private guide: the Main Plaza, the Temple of the Sun and the Intihuatana stone, set between towering green peaks above the Urubamba River. After the tour, return to Aguas Calientes and board the panoramic train back to Cusco.
Day 11
Fly from Cusco to Puerto Maldonado and transfer to the river port for a boat ride down the Madre de Dios River to Eco Amazonia Lodge. After a welcome drink and lunch, take a short walk through the forest and visit Monkey Island, where rescued monkeys live in semi-freedom. In the evening, set out by boat to spot caimans along the riverbank.
Day 12
Early breakfast and excursion to Lake Sandoval, inside the Tambopata National Reserve. Paddle a canoe across the lake surrounded by aguaje palms, looking for giant river otters, hoatzins, macaws and turtles. In the afternoon, climb the lodge’s lookout tower for sweeping views over the canopy at sunset, followed by an optional night walk.
Day 13
Early-morning bird watching around the lodge, when the forest is at its most active. After breakfast, return by boat to Puerto Maldonado and transfer to the airport for your flight back to Lima, where your driver takes you to your hotel.
Day 14
Enjoy a final morning in Lima: visit the Larco Museum and its pre-Columbian treasures or stroll through bohemian Barranco. At the agreed time, a private transfer takes you to the airport for your international flight home. End of services.
