Peru Vacation Destinations

Peru is one of the most wonderful countries to visit, full of tradition, history, mysticism and the most delicious food you’ll ever eat. Although the biggest city is its capital, Lima, there are a lot of Peru vacation destinations to choose from and they vary a lot in terms of climate and ecosystem. Popular destinations in Peru include Chiclayo, Huancayo, Cusco, Huaraz and Mancora, and these are just to name a few.

In Cusco you’ll find one of the modern marvels of the World: Macchu Picchu. This ancient Incan fortress remained hidden for centuries for the Western World, its location known by natives and some historians in Peru. Nowadays it is the main attraction you’ll find in Cusco, along with the fortress of Sacsayhuaman. How did people build all that? It remains a mystery to this day as building block are extremely heavy!

Lima is the capital of Peru and also a popular Peru vacation destination. Lima is the most modern city and you’ll find plenty of accommodations you expect on modern places. Over the last years it has become a main point to taste food from all over Peru. Gourmet restaurants are starting to spawn all over as the World is rediscovering the great flavor of Perivian food such as “Cebiche”, “Aji de Gallina” and the famous “Pollo a la Brasa”.

But if we talk about delicious food, we cannot leave Chiclayo behind. Of the many places I’ve visited in Peru this one is the one that conquered my stomach, and to this day I long to return to taste again the delicious “Seco de Cabrito”. In Chiclayo you’ll also find a beautiful museum called “Lord of Sipan”, which centers on the discovery of a royal tomb in the area. All pieces are there for you to enjoy and admire!

These are some of the destinations you can find in Peru vacations packages. There are many more places to visit, such as Huancayo Peru, Mancora, one of the most beautiful beaches in the country and the jungle to the East.
