Peru is a whole playground of epic adventures, ancient mysteries, and llamas with serious attitude. Here’s our top tips: 🌋 Arequipa The land of Gustavo and therefore automatically our top recommendation. Known as the "White City" for its beautiful volcanic stone buildings, Arequipa is also a food paradise. 🏔️ Cusco, Sacred Valley, and Machu Picchu Once the heart of the Inca Empire, Cusco is a mix of cobbled streets and colonial architecture.
