The art of travelling with respect
Your South America holiday begins in Peru. Set in high Andean mountains at 3320m, Cusco is an attractive town which draws people from all over the world. Built on the foundations of an Inca city, you can still see intricate Inca masonry and buildings as you walk through the town.
There is an opportunity to visit the Sacred Valley of the Incas, including the colourful market in the town of Pisac, and the Inca ruins and town of Ollantaytambo. It is then just a short train ride to Aguas Calientes and a visit to the magnificent Inca citadel of Machu Picchu.
From Machu Picchu you head back to Cusco by train, before flying to Lima. From here you fly to Sao Paulo and on to Foz do Iguazu. Here you will enjoy a full day exploring both the Brazilian and Argentinean falls before flying to vibrant Rio de Janeiro for 3 nights. In Rio you will have a guided visit of Sugar Loaf and Corcovado Mountains as well as a day at leisure to explore on your end.
You end the trip in a small pousada on the car-free island of Ilha Grande where you can relax and enjoy the islands' numerous beautiful beaches.

We hope the following will give you a rough idea of costs. These are quoted per person based on twin share for two people, without international flights but including internal flights. We’ve used good standard accommodation throughout. There are nearly always ways to spend more money than we’ve suggested (!), but these prices show a good and realistic range for each type of trip.
International flights will add from about £750 to £1000 depending on the season and route (unless the airlines have special offers). Peru combines very well with Ecuador (including the Galapagos Island), but can also be linked with Brazil.
| For each accommodation on this website you will find an indication of the price. The bands are based on the price per person per night at peak season and are represented by the following values for this country: | |
 |
under £60 |
 |
£60 to £100 |
 |
£100 to £150 |

£150 to £300 |
