Peru has one of the premier travel destinations in the
world - the Incan site of Machu Picchu. That's not the only area of
interest though. Cusco is a small town with colonial and Incan
influences and is on the access route to Machu Picchu. The reed
islands of Lake Titicaca are unique and still have indigenous
people. On the east side of the Andes, the Amazon tributary
Tambopata River provides a very different experience from the rest of
Peru. The gateway to Peru is Lima.
Make sure your passport is good for six months at the time
of entry and be prepared for a lengthy immigration process, including the
issue of an immigration card.
