Peru is one of the most spectacular countries in the world. Its extremes of geography and variety and friendliness of its people is quite astonishing but it is the multiple layers of great civilisations that make Peru so intriguing. You can wander around colonial cities that have preserved the legacy of the Spanish conquistadors, visit the ancient Inca cities and perhaps most amazingly of all explore the lost citadel of Machu Picchu. It truly is a once in a lifetime holiday destination.
