Top 10 Shared Day Tours and activities to do in Peru this 2024

Thinking about Peru is a whole adventure; it is a lot of experiences and memories. It is a mix of sensations and emotions; colors, harmony, flavors.

From the moment that you arrive in Peru for the first time, in the same airport you can see a mix of races, languages and ways to express their words and feelings. It is very true that in Peru most of the inhabitants are “mestizos” which is a mix between indigenous and Spanish but now is very cosmopolitan.

Its people, the Peruvian, are very friendly, talkative, entertaining and almost always look happy.  they will always want to help you and give you the assistance you need.

And what do they say about Peru?

As National Geographic says: Peru is the third largest country in South America, after Brazil and Argentina. It is made up of a variety of landscapes, from mountains and beaches to deserts and rainforests. Most people live along the coast of the Pacific Ocean, where the capital, Lima, is located.

The world’s largest rainforest, the Amazon, covers nearly half of Peru. Called the selva in Spanish, this huge jungle, which also covers half of Brazil, is home to plants and animals that do not live anywhere else on Earth. Some scientists think there may even be Indian tribes there that have never seen the outside world.

Along Peru’s west coast is a narrow strip of desert 1,555 miles (2,500 kilometers) long. Ancient people, called the Chimu and the Nasca, first inhabited this region thousands of years ago. The coastal desert makes up only about 10 percent of Peru, but it is home to more than half of all Peruvians.

The second highest mountain range in the world runs through Peru. These peaks, called the Andes, are so tall and forbidding that the ancient Inca people thought they were gods. They run from north to south and can be seen from Peru’s beaches 50 miles (80 kilometers) to the west. The highest peak, Mount Huascaran, is 22,205 feet (6,768 meters) high.
