Hello—
If you're dreaming of a trip that blends iconic history, natural beauty, and unforgettable culture, Peru should be at the top of your list.
From exploring the Incan ruins of Machu Picchu to savoring ceviche in Lima, here’s a sample itinerary to inspire your next great adventure:
Days 1–2: Sacred Valley
Ease into the altitude with a peaceful start in the Sacred Valley. Stay at Sol y Luna, a vibrant retreat surrounded by gardens and mountain views. Think: farm-to-table meals, artisan markets, and slow mornings with coca tea. Explore Ollantaytambo, visit the salt pans of Maras, and unwind with an Andean-inspired spa treatment.
Days 3–4: Machu Picchu
Take the scenic train to Aguas Calientes and settle in at Inkaterra Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel, tucked into the cloud forest. Rise early for a guided tour of the citadel — and if you're up for it, hike Huayna Picchu for sweeping views. Later, relax with a pisco sour by the fire.
Days 5–6: Cusco
Back in Cusco, stay at Palacio del Inka, where history meets luxury just steps from the Plaza de Armas. Visit San Pedro Market, Sacsayhuamán, and sip on coca tea in sunlit courtyards. Don’t miss dinner at MAP Café for a refined take on local flavors.
Day 7: Lima
Wrap up in Peru’s dynamic capital. Stay at Miraflores Park, A Belmond Hotel, and enjoy sunset over the Pacific from the rooftop pool. Dine at Central or La Mar, and stroll through Barranco’s bohemian galleries before flying home.
