MACHU PICCHU, Peru - August 28 - September 4

FANTASTIC PHOTO TOUR OF MACHU PICCHU, 

PLUS THE SACRED VALLEY!!!

This 15th Century Inca enclave is famous 

the world over for its ancient ruins. 

It existed virtually untouched from the mid-1500's 

until it was re-discovered by an American 

historian in the early 1900's. 

Incredible photo opportunities 

and a glimpse into an exquisite culture 

await us at this UNESCO World Heritage Site. 

This legendary and revered ancient land will be an incredible photo trip in all respects. And every step of the way we will travel in comfort and style.  See the splendor of Machu Picchu, plus travel back in time to the nearby Sacred Valley with even more ancient temples, citadels, artifacts, and exciting landscapes. We will also photograph the lively handicraft market.

Our days will be filled with a vast array of photo opportunities, and our nights will be in lovely hotels with wonderful meals. We will travel in style aboard scenic expedition trains and comfortable buses.
