Peru & Bolivia

follow in the footsteps of butch cassidy and the sundance kid!

Rugged mountains and snow-capped volcanoes, colourful natives and the remains of mysterious civilizations characterize this spectacular trip. Shoestring will take you along the salt plains of Salar de Uyuni to Machu Picchu, the legendary Lost City of the Inca Empire, and through the extensive Altiplano, one of the highest plateaus on earth. It will introduce you to the delights of grilled guinea-pig and llama steaks. And it will explain what Butch and Sundance were doing in Bolivia!
Peru & Bolivia
  • • The sandy dunes of Ica Take a swim, go sandboarding, enjoy a spectacular buggy ride and enjoy amazing sunsets on the beautiful sandy dunes of Ica. «
  • • Visit the moon in Bolivia Explore the Valle de la Luna, an area with rock formations that look like a lunar landscape before moving on to La Paz with its colonial buildings, churches and monasteries. «
  • • Nazca Lines A visit the Nazca Lines is a must as these great designs are truly remarkable. Some represent animals, others geometric patterns and though their origins remain unknown, many theories exist. «
  • • Floating Islands on Lake Titicaca The 300 inhabitants of the Uros live on Lake Titicaca on floating islands made of totora reeds. Their small houses are also made out of reed, as are their boats and the largest island has two-storied houses and a school. «
  • • Volcanoes and mummies We visit Arequipa, a beautiful colonial city surrounded by volcanoes. You must visit the Museum of Sanctuaries Andinos and see the wonderfully preserved mummy of a young Inca girl, Juanita, an ancient sacrifice to the volcano, preserved for centuries under layers of ice. «
  • • Machu Picchu You can’t visit Peru without visiting the lost Inca city of Machu Picchu, on a plateau in the middle of rock formations. Archaeologists believe it was once a religious Inca town and it is truly breathtaking. «
