LATIN AMERICAN MARVELS
Go from sipping pisco sours in Lima, one of the world’s great culinary cities, to a photographer’s paradise in the colorful neighborhood of Las Peñas in Guayaquil and the vast archaeological site of Chan Chan, filled with pre-Colombian artifacts. Add in optional extras to see more of this amazing destination – a Cruise Tours combine cruises with inland tour to explore Machu Picchu or a 2-day excursion to the Galapagos Islands.

Perched in the Andes Mountains 8,000 feet above sea level, Machu Picchu is counted among the New Seven Wonders of the World. Once a royal retreat, this lost city escaped the notice of Spanish conquistadors and is a marvelously well-preserved record of Incan culture.

On the optional 2-day shore excursion, your naturalist guide will lead you through wild coastlines and craggy landscapes with utmost sensitivity to the islands’ fragile ecosystem, on unforgettable encounters with giant tortoises, prehistoric iguanas, and birdlife such as Galápagos penguins and dramatic blue-footed boobies.
