Peru Tour 2008

Peru Tour
Trail of the Incas
May 19, 2008 - June 4, 2008 *In Progress!

We’re looking for self-sufficient types new to South America for this tour. This will not be your cushy chocolate-on-the-pillow-every-night ride, but something more on the adventurous side of life. Riders will be required to be hearty and in good physical/mental condition. This is a good primer for those hoping to one day ride the world on their own. The idea that riding in South America is dangerous and not worth visiting is simply NOT TRUE. Peru, especially, is a must see.

We’ll climb breathtaking mountains (to altitudes of 15,600 feet!), travel through Colca Canyon (the world's second deepest canyon), ride incredible twisties through pre-Incan towns, see mystical landscapes where the mountains merge into the sky, ride the PanAmerican Highway along the Peruvian Coast, walk around the Nazca lines – some of the most mysterious archaeological remains in the world – and spend a day exploring Machu Picchu; one of the new Seven Wonders of the World. All this on wide open roads with many days of little or no traffic. Join us on this extraordinary tour that you won’t soon forget.

NOTE: This is an all-paved itinery with the possibility of dirt side excursions. This is a great tour for adventuresome couples!
