2011 marks a century since Hiram Bingham first came across the ruins of Machu Picchu, and events will take place across the country to celebrate the occasion.
At Aracari, we have organised a very special trip led by one of the most important writers on Inca history, John Hemming, who wrote the classic book “Conquest of the Incas”, a definitive title in its genre.
Heading towards winter and we have received lots of positive feedback over the last month. Our Travel Planners Caitlin and Cristina received particular praise for their work in organising, planning and executing great Peru itineraries.
Aracari discovered during a recent visit to Lake Titicaca that the Victorian steamship Yavari has now been refurbished as a bed & breakfast.
On a recent trip to the Urubamba Valley, the Aracari team was most pleased to have the opportunity to stay at one of the finest new additions to accommodation in Peru: the New Suites that have been recently been inaugurated by Sol y Luna in June 2010.
Moving into autumn – or Peruvian spring – and the sun is starting to shine more and more in the capital city Lima. And rather fittingly, there has been no dulling down in the tone of appraisal that Aracari has received from our guests.
In order to broaden the options for those wanting to visit indigenous communities living beside Lake Titicaca, Marisol Mosquera of Aracari has recently visited the village of Luquina Chico, a small and rarely visited rural population living on the tip of the Chucuito peninsula.
