Peru
Mention Peru and everyone thinks Machu Picchu. Fair enough. But beyond the famous citadel lies Amazon jungle, endless Pacific waves, ancient cultures, wild adventures and one of the world’s great food scenes. Machu Picchu? Absolutely. Just don’t think that’s where Peru ends.
High in the clouds in the Andean mountains, Roberto Serrini gets a taste of two worlds: one where ancient cultures still thrive and another that values a touch of luxury after a long day exploring.
Deep in the Peruvian Amazon, Roberto Serrini uncovers a smorgasbord of psychedelic frogs, research fanatics and a surprising array of creature comforts.
The ruins here rival Machu Picchu as it was the last bastion for the Inca and perhaps one of the last destinations tourists have infiltrated.
Very few have caught wind of Machu Picchu's sister city, Choquequirao.
