South America

A continent of extreme landscapes, fascinating wildlife, colourful history and intriguing cultures, South America exudes a sense of mystery and wonder. Home to the world's highest waterfall, largest river, tallest mountain range, driest desert and largest rainforest, the scenery is jaw-dropping. Past civilisations have left their mark, particularly at Machu Picchu, while the modern cities retain architectural wonders and cultures from the past.

Peru

Archaeological marvels, architectural splendour, wild mountainous expanses and an ancient cultural history are just part of Peru's charms. The legacy of the Spanish conquistadors is evident in the colonial cities of Cusco and Lima as well as having a huge influence on the cuisine.
