Lake Titicaca

Occupying a great swathe from Ecuador to Argentina, the vast Altiplano
is the largest high plateau outside Tibet. One of the world's great rail
journeys traverses the plateau from Cusco to Lake Titicaca which, at
4000m in altitude, is the world's highest navigable lake. Titicaca is
home to alpacas, llamas and the Uros and Aymara peoples with a long
history predating the Incas by thousands of years, many of whom still
live on floating reed islands and travel by reed boat.

Arequipa

Recently declared a World Heritage Site and famed for its white-stone
buildings, historic churches and cathedral, colonial Arequipa is located
in a beautiful valley surrounded by snow-capped volcanoes. Santa
Catalina Convent is a walled citadel of more than 20,000 square metres
which over four centuries has served as the home of several
generations of cloistered nuns.

Colca Canyon

Over millions of years, the Colca River carved its way through the
Altiplano creating the world's second deepest canyon, twice the depth
of the Grand Canyon. Farmers still tend their crops on ancient terraces
built in the 5th Century, a marked contrast to the otherwise stark and
arid landscape. The canyon's Cruz del Condor viewpoint is one of the
best plac es in the world to see that magnificent bird. On sunny
mornings, ten to twelve condors can be observed close by, soaring on
thermals and creating fantastic photo opportunities.
