Hiker overlooks Machu PicchuThe third largest country in South America, Peru was once home to the Incan Empire, whose mysterious legacy, Machu Picchu has been capturing the imagination of visitors since its discovery. More than half the country is covered with forests, mainly in the Amazon basin and the Andes mountains. The Peruvian Andes are widely considered the most beautiful mountains in South America, where large numbers of indigenous peoples still maintain their traditional way of life.

Here you will find charming, small colonial towns and Amazonian river villages, friendly and hospitable locals, intriguing archaeological sites, and the ancient Inca capital of Cuzco, the oldest inhabited city on the continent.
