Tour overview

This 14-day escorted tour shows you the highlights of Peru in comfort, with return flights from the UK, domestic flights and two scenic train journeys included. Breakfast, lunch and dinner are included almost every day. You stay twelve nights in handpicked hotels, including two at the Belmond Monasterio, a former monastery near Cusco's Plaza de Armas, with a night in flight on the way home. Groups range from twelve to twenty-eight travellers.

In Lima a city tour visits the World Heritage historic centre, the San Francisco Monastery, the colonial mansion of Casa Aliaga and the Huaca Pucllana ruins. You fly to Cusco and continue to the Sacred Valley, where local artisans share their weaving, pottery and jewellery-making before a visit to the ruins of Pisac. The next day you see the circular Inca terraces of Moray, the salt pans of Maras and the fortress of Ollantaytambo.

The panoramic Vistadome train carries you down the Urubamba gorge to Aguas Calientes for a guided visit to Machu Picchu, with a free morning the next day to climb Huayna Picchu, revisit the citadel or soak in the hot springs. In Cusco you tour Coricancha and the cathedral, take part in a traditional Quechua offering to Pachamama and enjoy a folklore show.

A luxury train with dining and observation cars and a gourmet Andean lunch takes you across the high plains to Puno, where a boat trip visits the floating Uros Islands and Taquile. Driving past flamingos and volcanoes to over 4,800 metres, you reach the Colca Canyon for the hot springs at Chivay, then look for condors at the Cruz del Condor on the way to Arequipa. After a tour of the White City you fly to Lima for a farewell dinner.

The physical rating is medium, with time at high altitude. This tour suits travellers who want to see Peru's great sights with almost everything included.
