Peru Hiking Tour

Peru Hiking Tour

13 Days / 12 nights

from: USD 0.00

Peru Hiking Tour is designated for those trekkers, who prefer to get off crowded tourist paths such as the Classic Inca Trail to Machu Picchu and escape to a part of Peru that has not changed almost at all during the last 500 years. Moreover, a hike through the Lares Valley to Machu Picchu offering some spectacular mountain sceneries is a must to see. This remote and rarely visited region offers trekkers an insight into real lives of Andean farmers wearing traditional brightly colored ponchos. There you can also observe thatch-roofed, stone houses surrounded by herds of llamas and alpacas while inside of these house, guinea pigs run in small packs.
