This unforgettable Peruvian adventure strikes the perfect balance between physical exertion and relaxation. Its half and whole-day activities will stretch but not exhaust you and, with so many iconic sites to visit, so much history and culture to absorb and beautiful scenery and fascinating towns and villages to explore, your mind will be exercised every bit as much as your body! And there's plenty of down-time, including a wonderfully relaxing day on a luxury train; the perfect way to recharge your batteries.

Walk in the footsteps of the Inca as you hike to Machu Picchu, go white-water rafting on the rapids of a river that the Inca once travelled on, and enjoy guided tours of fascinating historical sites. Watch the beautiful, changing landscape from the elegant comfort of a very special train. Spend time in Cusco, Pisac and Lima, gaining an understanding of life and culture in pre-Hispanic, colonial and present-day Peru. And visit Lake Titicaca, where much of life and agriculture continues as it has done for centuries

You'll travel by foot, bike, boat, train and car, and will have guides and full support throughout. You'll stay in comfortable hotels and guest houses in excellent locations and enjoy some great meals. It's an ideal family holiday for children aged from about 10 - but if your children are younger contact us and we'll see where elements of the trip can be tailored to suit.
