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
In the morning, your private guide leads you through Lima’s UNESCO-listed historic center: the Plaza Mayor, the Cathedral and the San Francisco Monastery, whose baroque cloisters and underground catacombs hold centuries of history. The afternoon is at leisure to explore Miraflores and bohemian Barranco or enjoy lunch at one of the acclaimed restaurants that have made Lima a world capital of gastronomy.
Day 3
Leave Lima early for the bay of 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. Continue inland to the Huacachina Oasis, a palm-fringed lagoon surrounded by towering dunes, where a dune buggy ride and sandboarding on the giant dunes end the day with a thrill.
Day 4
Enjoy a slow morning in the oasis, or visit one of Ica’s historic wineries and pisco bodegas for a tasting. In the afternoon, travel by comfortable bus back to Lima along the Pacific coast and spend the evening in bohemian Barranco, with its art galleries, colorful murals and lively restaurants.
Day 5
Fly over the Andes to Cusco (approx. 3,400 m), the ancient capital of the Incas. Your driver takes you to your hotel, where the rest of the day is yours to rest and acclimatize. Take it easy, drink plenty of water and enjoy a first evening stroll to the Plaza de Armas as the city lights up.
Day 6
Spend a full day in the Sacred Valley of the Incas with your private guide. Visit Chinchero, an Andean village famous for its weavers and colonial church, admire the valley views, and continue to Ollantaytambo, whose massive Inca temple fortress and stone streets are still in use today. Spend the night in a boutique hotel in the valley.
Day 7
Board a panoramic train in Ollantaytambo and follow the Urubamba River as the landscape turns from Andean fields to cloud forest, with glass ceilings framing the snow-capped peaks. Arrive in Aguas Calientes, at the foot of Machu Picchu, and spend a relaxed afternoon in this mountain town.
Day 8
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 9
Transfer to Cusco airport for your morning flight to Lima, where you connect with your international flight home. End of services.

Yes. Your driver and guide give a short lesson, and most beginners slide down lying on the board. The dune buggy ride is thrilling but controlled, and you can simply enjoy the sunset over the dunes if you prefer.
The coast is sunniest from December to April, while April to November is the dry season in Cusco and Machu Picchu.
You fly from Lima directly to Cusco (approx. 3,400 m), so the rest of that day is free to rest and acclimatize. The Sacred Valley (approx. 2,800 m) and Machu Picchu (approx. 2,430 m) are both lower than Cusco. Drink plenty of water, avoid alcohol on the first evening and ask your doctor before you travel if you have a medical condition.
