Machu Picchu, the Sacred Valley, and a route that respects the altitude.
Peru is more than Machu Picchu, but Machu Picchu is part of why most people come. This guide structures the trip so the altitude lands before the trek, the Sacred Valley earns its name, and the route gives you Lima's food scene without making it an afterthought.
