Vacation Overview
Discover the lasting impact of the Incan civilization during this exciting Regional Discovery of Peru. Your trip begins with an introduction to the colonial heritage of Lima, with visits to the cathedral and the San Francisco Monastery. Then drive to Ica for a flight over the mysterious Nazca Lines—geometric etchings left by ancient Peruvians—and a cruise around the Ballestas Islands. Return to Lima and fly to Cuzco, once the capital of the Inca Empire, and spend the day in the Sacred Valley. While there, visit the Inca baths of Tambomachay and the Temple of Sacsayhuaman, and stop in Pisac to visit a local's home. Visit the Inca fortress of Ollantaytambo before traveling through Urubamba Valley by train on your way to legendary Machu Picchu. Back in Cuzco, visit the cathedral and the Santo Domingo Monastery, then travel to Puno on the shores of Lake Titicaca. Enjoy a hydrofoil cruise on this world-famous lake, including sightseeing on Moon Island and Sun Island. Stop at the Bolivian town of Copacabana to visit its cathedral, then on to the Uros Floating Islands, home of the Uros Indians. Return to Lima via Juliaca, and head for home with your lasting memories from this amazing Peru vacation.
