Stretching from the western to the central part of South America, Peru is known worldwide for its extensive coastline and archeological wonders. The capital city, Lima, presides over the coast with its Spanish colonial center and hip neighborhoods buzzing with pisco bars, live music, and some of the finest restaurants in the world. Heading north, a fun-loving surfing paradise beckons round Mncora, while to the south, the desert-etched Nazca Lines have puzzled and enthralled visitors for decades.

The magnificent Andes are justifiably the countrys main draw, delivering history, culture, and adventure by the bucketload. Omnipresent is the enduring legacy of the Inca Empire and even earlier cultures from imposing ruined citadels to joyous traditional festivals. While the beauty of Cuscos elegant squares and cobbled streets is renowned, the resplendent plazas of Arequipa, Ayacucho, and Cajamarca ooze plenty of old-world charm. Lose yourself in the cloud-forested eastern flank of Perus mountainous spine, brimming with dazzling birds, orchids, and butterflies, as it plunges into the lowland rainforest and majestic Amazon River. However you choose to experience Perus natural beauty, its snow-crusted peaks, glacial lakes, and yawning canyons will not disappoint.

Perus vastness and diversity can feel over-whelming, but this guidebook breaks the country down into easily navigable chapters, full of expert knowledge and insider tips. Weve created detailed itineraries and colorful maps to help you plan the perfect trip, whether youre on a short break or an extended adventure. Enjoy the book, and enjoy Peru.
