My most hated hike in Peru. Not because it wasn’t beautiful. & not because it was the most difficult hike we embarked on in Peru (it wasn’t). Here are my thoughts on the Colca Canyon Trek and how to properly hike this dreaded canyon on your own.
Peru is one of the top trekking destinations in the world. But you don’t need to be a premier athlete or a mountaineer to tackle Peru’s prettiest treks. Here’s the 14 hikes you can’t miss in Peru.
The Sacred Valley. A slice of ancient history tucked away into an idyllic mountain paradise. It’s much more than home to the iconic Machu Picchu.
Wild snow-capped mountain peaks towering at 20,000 feet. Amazonian adventure. Quaint cobblestone towns with ancient Incan history. Modern cities with culinary delights. Peru is surely one of the adventure capitals of the world. Here’s the best the country has to offer.
The unspoiled Amazon Rainforest. Well, kind of. Here’s why I think you should plan your Amazonas excursion from Tambopata National Reserve in Peru instead of Iquitos.
Quite possibly one of our greatest travel adventures to date. A 4-day trek through the 14,000 ft peaks of the Andes Mountains finished off with a visit to one of the new 7 wonders of the world. It doesn’t get much better than this.
Lima is well known for one thing- Food. But savvy travelers can always find a little more to love about a city. We took a tour with Alternative Peru to see the lesser-visited side of Lima and fell in love with the grey crowded city so many tourists overlook.
Street food isn’t scary. Often, it’s the lifeblood of a countries food culture. After failing to find Lima’s best street food on my own, I called in the experts at Exquisito Peru. Here’s why I think you should eat with them on your next visit to Peru.
