Weekend breaks in Peru

For those whose time is pressing, or who perhaps want to extend a corporate trip, we have designed long weekend breaks to see some of the archaeological wonders of the world in comfort. These three destinations are easily accessible from Lima by plane or by car.

A weekend to Machu Picchu

See the sunrise over Machu Picchu, explore the ruins and indulge in afternoon tea at the Sanctuary Lodge. Finish the day with a massage and a soak before enjoying a meal with a view of the magnificent Andes. These are just a few highlights of an active long weekend spent exploring Machu Picchu and Cuzco in style. See the full itinerary.

Or for a truly dynamic weekend, you only need spend three days to capture the magic of Machu Picchu. A truly unforgettable weekend break.

The archaeological riches of Trujillo and Chiclayo

Equally as astonishing and home to civilizations as far back as 2,000 BC, the trip to Trujillo and Chiclayo visits sites and museums containing the beautiful artefacts discovered from the Chimu, Moche and Lambayeque cultures. We can also help you to understand life today here, by arranging special private visits to local haciendas. See the full itinerary.

The natural wonders of Paracas and Nazca

The Paracas and Nazca two-day trip focuses on the natural wonders of the world, but also encompasses a visit to the Museo Regional in Ica to view the collection of mummies, trepanned skulls, artefacts and ceramics. On day one you will fly across the famous Nazca lines, giant drawings of animals, birds and geometric figures ranging up to 300 metres in size, scratched across 220km2 of desert plains. On day two you will explore the Paracas National Reserve, cruising to the Ballestas Islands, an archipelago of islands teeming in wildlife. This trip also includes lunch at the beautiful privately-owned 18 th Century Hacienda Arona and a visit to the Inca ruins at Tambo Colorado. See the full itinerary.
