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.
