8 Day Itinerary: From the Coastal Desert to the Andes

We have structured this route prioritizing the optimization of travel times and acclimatization progressive to maximize your physical performance.

Day 1 and 2: Overflight to the Mysteries of Nazca

We start in Lima with a highly optimized full-day excursion. We will make an early night/early departure to the south to guarantee the first flight shift. The spectacular flyover of the Nazca Lines will reveal mysterious geometric and zoomorphic figures drawn in the desert more than 2,000 years ago, declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. We will return to Lima the same day to rest.

Day 3 and 4: Flight to Cusco and Imperial City Tour

From Lima, we fly to the capital of the Inca Empire. The third day focuses on adaptation to the altitude through a guided City Tour, exploring the megalithic architecture of Qorikancha and the Sacsayhuamán fortress.

Day 5 and 6: Sacred Valley and the Wonder of the World

On the fifth day we will tour the Sacred Valley of the Incas, visiting strategic archaeological sites and having local ingredients for lunch. In the afternoon, we will board the train to Aguas Calientes. The next day, first thing in the morning, we will explore the Inca citadel of Machu Picchu. Our certified guide will decode the complex engineering and astronomical purpose of this wonder of the modern world before returning to Cusco.

Day 7 and 8: The Challenge of Vinicunca and Humantay

With our bodies acclimatized, we dedicated the last two days to the high mountains. We will face the ascent towards the spectacular Mountain of Seven Colors (Vinicunca) at more than 5,000 meters above sea level, and the next day, the trekking towards the impressive Laguna Humantay, a reflecting pool turquoise guarded by immense glaciers. Day 8 ends with your transfer to the airport.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is it possible to fly over the Nazca Lines from Lima in one day? Yes, our logistics allows it. We leave Lima at dawn by land to arrive at Nazca (or Ica/Pisco depending on the operating airport), make the overflight in the morning taking advantage of the best wind conditions, and return to Lima the same day at night.

What physical preparation do I need for Vinicunca and Humantay? Moderate physical condition is required. The difficulty of these treks does not lie in the technicality of the terrain, but in the cardiovascular demand due to the altitude (between 4,200 and 5,200 meters above sea level). We recommend basic cardiovascular training before the trip.

The package is comprehensive (turnkey): includes airport-hotel transfers, overflight in Nazca, all tourist transportation, round-trip trains to Aguas Calientes, entrance tickets to all parks and archaeological complexes, official guides, and first aid equipment.
