This itinerary is built around 15 days of exploration across Lima, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, Cusco, and the Peruvian Amazon. Each day focuses on a specific area, so you’ll spend your mornings and afternoons discovering landmarks, markets, and culinary hotspots before returning to your hotel—or in the Amazon, your luxury river lodge—to relax in the evening.
Experience the pure Amazon with a cruise that explores the rainforest’s incredible wildlife and landscapes, including a stay at the A&K Sanctuary, where you can enjoy guided excursions and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of the region.
You can swap the days around if you like. For example, if you want to explore certain sites earlier or later, the itinerary is flexible to match your preferences.
Getting Around
You’ll need transportation to move between Lima, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, Cusco, and the Amazon. I recommend booking flights for the longer stretches (Lima → Cusco → Amazon) and taxis or private drivers for city transfers. In the Sacred Valley, Cusco, and the Amazon, local tours or guided drivers make navigating easier and more comfortable.
