There’s no better place to pick up some traditional souvenirs than Pisac Market, where local Peruvians come every Sunday to sell their handicrafts and produce. Be sure to check out the beautiful Quechuan handwoven wares and the castillos de cuyes (literally, mini castles for guinea pigs).
Get to know Peru’s capital city on a Lima sightseeing tour with your Local Specialist. It’s all about grand buildings, historic monuments, superb food and a beautiful coastline here, and we’ll hop around all the icons like the Plaza Mayor and Cathedral, the Gaudi-style architecture of Parque del Amor, and the buzzing Miraflores neighbourhood.
The Sacsayhuaman fortress is one of the world’s most impressive buildings and a Peru must see. We’ll let you in on all the secrets of this engineering marvel, built by the Incans around the 13th century with some of the biggest blocks ever found in Incan construction. They’re fitted together so tightly that you can’t even fit a piece of paper between some of them!
December to April are the wettest months, plus Machu Picchu is closed in February, so visit any time between May and November for the warmest weather and safest walking trails.

Venture to the high altitudes of Lake Titicaca during the dry season between April and October, for almost constant sunshine and cooler temperatures.
Peru has some seriously talented artisans and we’ll take you to the famous Pisac Market where you can buy wares from the locals, like hand-woven clothes and toys.
