VISIT PERU
Peru is a land of extraordinary diversity, where rugged peaks rise above mist-covered valleys, and the lush, vibrant Amazon rainforest teems with life. This country is a natural wonder, offering a rich tapestry of ecosystems – from the high-altitude Andean highlands to the humid, biodiverse jungles of the Amazon basin. Peru’s varied landscapes host some of the world’s most iconic wildlife, including elusive jaguars, playful river otters, and colourful howler monkeys. The coast is home to stark desert landscapes, where the unique Nazca Lines stretch across the arid earth, while the verdant cloud forests harbour a wealth of plant and animal species found nowhere else. A destination for both adventure and reflection, Peru invites travellers to walk in the footsteps of ancient civilisations – exploring Inca ruins like Machu Picchu – while immersing themselves in nature’s raw beauty. Peru offers a vibrant blend of longstanding culture and vast wilderness that’s waiting to be discovered.

Support the protection of 1 million hectares of rainforest
Meet Acción Andina, the social movement that is encouraging local rural communities and governments to work together to save the Peruvian rainforest. The high-altitude regions are home to around 45,000 plant species and thousands of bird, reptile, and amphibian species. Visit native tree nurseries that are not only critical for reforestation and job creation, but also cultivate food crops alongside Polylepis seedlings to protect food security in rural areas. Join a Queuña Raymi Tree Planting Ceremony that sees Andean communities unite to celebrate the precious saplings being restored within the rich soil. Guests traverse the diverse landscape of the Sacred Valley and sample traditional flavours combined in contemporary menus, sip wine made from fermented flowers, and learn about the 4,000 varieties of native potato that originated in the highlands of the Andes.
