1 nightLIMA

Your adventure begins by flying straight into Peru’s heart, Lima, and staying the night in the arty Second Home Boutique Hotel, a trendy getaway in the buzzing capital. With its own art collection, as well as being surrounded by quirky attractions, such as the museum of electricity, and food markets, you’ll be able to dive into Peru’s fantastic culture immediately. The hotel is nestled in the coastal district Barranco, considered the city’s most romantic and bohemian, so make sure to catch a glimpse of the purple blossoming trees and the brightly painted Art-Deco houses before you are whisked away to the Sacred Valley.

1 nightMACHU PICCHU

Next you’ll take the scenic Vistadome train to Machu Picchu, which needs no introduction- this Inca settlement, dramatically perched on a mountaintop, is a major draw for travellers to Peru, and with good reason. You’ll have lots of time to explore this extraordinary landmark both on a guided tour and at leisure, without a guide. Your base will be the luxurious cosy El Mapi, with its terracotta floors, delicious Peruvian specialities and amazing panoramic views – get up early to watch the sun rise over Machu Picchu, the absolute best way to start the day!

2 nightsCUSCO

After your introduction into Machu Picchu’s fascinating history and culture, you’ll then board the Vistadome and descending into Cusco, the historic capital of the ancient Inca Empire. Two nights here is just the right amount of time to balance some well-earned relaxation with some sightseeing, as you can stroll around the cobblestone streets and romantic squares, stopping to enjoy the cooler evenings and traditional bars with a Pisco Sour in hand. If your legs need a bit of a rest after all that walking, the hotel Aranwa Cusco has a stunning candle-lit courtyard that is the perfect antidote, where you can dine on tapas dishes and chilled local wines.
