About the Tour

In the city of Lima, the capital of Peru, the present is blended with history and tradition to show us its many attractions and cultural heritage. Founded in 1535 by the Spanish conquistadors as the City of Kings, it became the most important city in South America during the colonial era. The capital of Peru today houses a plethora of both architectural and archaeological monuments, which for their beauty and preservation have won the title of Cultural Heritage of Humanity from UNESCO. Whether by day or night, it is worth the trouble to see it all for the contrast of its landscapes and its various attractions.

History, magic and fun mix in the city of Cuzco, sometimes writtIn Cusco or Qosqo, the capital of the Inca Empire of Tahuantinsuyo, known at the time as the "Navel of the World." Its founding by the Spanish dates back to 1534, and today, it is considered the archeological capital of America and a Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Without a doubt, it is the most important tourist destination in Peru and, possibly, in South America, as is the majestic citadel of Machu Picchu.

Rich in pre-Inca, Inca and colonial archaeological remains, Puno is also regarded as the folklore capital of Peru because of the variety and beauty of its dances representing the mixture of the Quechua, Aymara and Hispanic peoples that can be seen in all their splendor during the celebrations of the Virgin of Candelaria.

Today, the population of Puno lives amidst traditions and customs that have been maintained over the centuries, allowing us to share the legacy of their ancestors that still lives among them. Whether visiting Lake Titicaca or celebrating at one of its festivities with typical dances, Puno is an unforgettable destination during your trip to Peru.
