13 days MS Fram Departure: 29 March 2024 PACIFIC COAST GEMS AND SACRED VALLEY TREASURES Explore vibrant coastal gems in Chile and Peru, before heading to mystical Machu Picchu and crossing the Altiplano to Lake Titicaca on this cruise and land adventure. South America’s natural wonders Your expedition cruise starts in Valparaiso and the first stop is La Serena, a showcase for Neo-colonial architecture and charming churches. In Iquique, you'll head into the Atacama Desert, the driest in the world, to visit the old saltpetre mining town of Humberstone. Arica’s sun-drenched beaches are best viewed from atop its iconic El Morro cliff while Paracas in Peru is the gateway to the Ballestas Islands, nicknamed the Galapagos of Peru. Inca Highlights and Machu Picchu Leaving the ship, you'll fly from Lima to Cusco - the former Inca capital - and visit sites including the Sacsayhuaman fortress. The following morning, we’ ll transfer you to Ollantaytambo, before you board the luxury Belmond Hiram Bingham train to Machu Picchu. Wander the ruins, admire its awe- inducing setting, and imagine what life must have been like here in the distant past. Stunning Lake Titicaca You'll then continue on the Andean Plateau to Lake Titicaca, the largest lake in South America. Located 12,500 feet above sea level, its setting is simply stunning. A boat will take you across the lake to visit the Uru community who live on floating Islands hand-woven from reeds. Meet the locals in the village of Llachén on the Capachica peninsula and try your hand at kayaking on the lake. You'll also explore the pre-Inca tombs of Sillustani before your adventure ends in Lima.
