Most people think of the Amazon as a jungle that begins on the eastern slopes of the Andes and continues to the east across Brazil to the Atlantic Ocean. Fact is, some of the most breathtakingly beautiful parts of the Amazon are found in Peru, on the western slopes’ rivers, including the amazing Pacaya Samiria Reserve. Latin Excursions is pleased to be able to offer exceptional Peru tours that includes both the incomparable Amazon rainforest and the wonders of Machu Picchu, the Sacred Valley, Cusco, and so much more!

Peru is…. the majestic Amazon River, surrounded by walls of green with almost 60% of Peru lying in the Amazon rainforest. Peru is Cuzco and the towering Incan ruins of Machu Picchu from the great Inca Empire, the largest state in pre-Columbian America. Peru is the vast Pampa Colorada, home to the mysterious Nazca Lines and the towering canyons of the Colca River near Arequipa. It is Lake Titicaca, where natives still live on islands made of reeds. Peru is miles of Pacific beaches, vast desert areas, the sheer towering Andes Mountains, lush green cloud forest and the high country of the Altiplano. Peru is the Amazon jungle with its wealth of wildlife, birds and plants and the Pacaya Samiria Reserve deep in the Amazon rainforest. Peru is the rural haciendas and elegant churches built by the Spaniards, who conquered this rugged land of mountains, rivers, and valleys in the 16th century. It is the small villages and markets of Peru’s indigenous people–the women clad in rainbow-colored clothing topped by serious-looking bowler hats
Your first week is dedicated to visiting the amazing land-based highlights. On day eight, you’ll enjoy a 2.5 hour flight to Iquitos, where you’ll board the Aqua for a sailing trip through the Amazon of Peru. Over the next four days, you’ll see all manner of colors, the brilliant vibrant, amazing Amazon! Then it’s back to Lima for a day before returning home with stories to tell, pictures to share, and memories to last a lifetime!
If you’d like, you can extend your trip. Add high-altitude destinations, or enjoy a bit of relaxing time along the pacific Peruvian coast. Perhaps while you’re in the southern hemisphere you’d like to fly on up to Equador and experience the famous Galapagos Islands aboard a luxury cruise? At Latin Excursions, we’re honored to be able to make your voyage is everything you want it to be.
