Here's how to spend 10 unforgettable days exploring the highlights of Peru.
Peru is one of the most popular travel destinations in South America and offers a range of unique landscapes, elevations, and experiences to visitors. From the dense greenery of the Amazonas to the high-altitude peaks in the Andes, everyone can find something to love about Peru. But with many Americans and Canadians limited to 10 days of vacation time per year, it’s common to wonder, is 10 days enough to see it all?
The short answer is no — Peru is a country that travelers can easily spend two to three (or more) months exploring and still leave more to be discovered. The reality is that the distances between popular tourist areas require certain days of the trip to be dedicated to travel and spending only a day or two in each city or region simply isn’t enough to squeeze in all the fantastic sights and culinary experiences. For the most rewarding experience traveling in Peru, consider this 10-day itinerary (with alternate route options) to see the highlights. Incredible Peruvian destinations that are not on this list include the White City of Arequipa, and Lake Titicaca. Regardless of how long travelers stay in Peru, they will always leave wanting more.
