9 days / 8 nights
TOUR DESCRIPTION . l . SPECIAL DEPARTURES . l . GUARANTEED DEPARTURE DATES . l . HOTELS
Destinations: Lima, Arequipa, Cusco, Machu Picchu, Puno
Departures: Daily Passengers: minimum 2
 

Due to LEGENDARY PERU´s great success throughout 2007, we have considered relaunching it on 2008 once again. Following are the characteristics that make so easy to sell.

  1. The program allows arrival and departure to and from Lima in any flight, be it directly from Europe or via Caracas.
  2. To avoid inconveniences due to the different altitudes, we start the itinerary in Arequipa (2,335 m.a.s.l.), then continue to Cusco (3,399 m.a.s.l.) and finally get to Puno (3,827 m.a.s.l.) making it easier for the client to acclimatize.
  3. We have also programmed a special trip to go to the most significant folk feast The Inti Raymi feast in Cusco .
  4. On departure day clients may choose one of the three hotel categories. Land service are commonly done by local guides (upon availability).
