A magical journey
The Sacred Valley of the Incas, Machu Picchu, the city of Cusco, the ancient capital of the fabled Inca Empire, the boundless plateau to Lake Titicaca, the Colca Valley, the colonial city of Arequipa.
Few countries in the world boast such archaeological and historical complexity as Peru, the succession of mysterious civilizations and epic human events, the interweaving of peoples moved by a passion for the sacred and a vocation for mystery. Day after day we will catch ourselves wondering what music resonated during ancient pagan rites, why the lost city of the Incas was abandoned, who built the grandiose terraces of Moray. In Andean markets, along corn and barley fields, on the islands of Lake Titicaca, the people of the Andes will offer us a smile, an embroidered cloth, a small heroic story.
