Two of the best travel destinations in the world can now be visited in one trip. South America is still a land of unpredictable adventure with undiscovered ruins, impenetrable jungles and the wildest rivers. Several travel companies are now offering a Galapagos and Machu Picchu tour to combine the best that nature and culture have to offer.
These incredible islands and the world famous Inca citadel are now on many people's bucket list. They are incomparable. A trip combining both of them is a dream for lovers of nature, culture and history. Besides the two main attractions there are lots of other wonderful things to experience in Peru and Ecuador.
Tourists dream of these legendary islands because of the animals. They are not afraid of people so do not run away at the first sight of a landing boat. There is nowhere else where you can get so close to wild animals so you will get some incredible photos.
Each day normally consists of a couple of walking tours and snorkelling. In between tours the boats move to different islands. This means you will get to see everything including the famous marine iguanas, giant tortoises and flightless cormorants. Snorkelling trips also provide opportunities to get close to penguins, sea lions and even hammerhead sharks while swimming over sunken volcanoes.
The Galapagos are situated just off the coast of Ecuador in the west of South America. It is a small country with lots to offer in a small geographical location. Flights to the islands leave from Guayaquil on the coast so all visitors must pass through Ecuador. From there it is a short flight to Lima, the capital of Peru.
Make sure you have charged your camera batteries for the visit to Machu Picchu. Just getting there is an adventure but the site itself is breathtaking. Early morning visitors get to see it at its most magical as the mists rise from the ruins to reveal the surrounding jungle covered mountains.
From Cusco there is a train to the high jungle to see the citadel. It takes a few hours but you wont be bored. It is a truly spectacular journey as you descend the high valleys into the cloud forest. The tour will include a guided tour of the site which is essential to understand what happened there and the ingenious talents of the Inca builders.
A tour encompassing the best of Ecuador and Peru has lots to offer. Both countries have unique cultures, endemic wildlife, wild jungles, Ancient cities and more. Taking an organised tour is the easiest way to see it all. The best way to find a tour is to shop around as they are all slightly different. Some companies offer bespoke tours. Make sure to check the weather as rainy season affects both places.
