Start in Lima · End in Cusco
Lima – Cusco: 7 days, 6 nights
Why Choose This Experience
Discover two sides of Peru on a seven-day trip that combines Lima’s urban life with the landscapes and heritage of Cusco. This Lima–Cusco package brings together the capital, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, and the Mountain of Seven Colors in an itinerary designed to make the most of a week-long vacation. The tour begins with your arrival in Lima and a full-day city tour that lets you explore its historic sites before continuing on to the Andes. The one-way flight to Cusco, included in the itinerary, connects these two stages and opens the way to a region where Inca architecture coexists with villages and mountains. The visit to the Sacred Valley offers a first glimpse of this setting, while the day dedicated to Machu Picchu is one of the most anticipated highlights of the trip. Arriving at the archaeological site and touring it with a guide allows you to explore its terraces and structures within the authorized access area. The itinerary also includes a trip to Vinicunca, known as the Mountain of Seven Colors, for those who wish to complement the cultural visits with a hike and views of the high-altitude landscape. This option is ideal for travelers seeking a comprehensive first experience of Cusco while still exploring the Peruvian capital. The planned accommodations are spread across Lima, Cusco, and Aguas Calientes; when you request a quote, you can review the hotel categories and how each night’s stay is organized. BeFun will help you coordinate schedules, tickets, and transportation, as well as clarify which meals and activities are included. We recommend planning for acclimatization and inquiring separately about any optional services, such as horseback riding during the Vinicunca excursion. The return flight from Cusco is not included in the base rate, so it’s best to arrange it once your itinerary is confirmed. Check availability for your dates and receive a detailed proposal to enjoy a week of city life, history, and mountains.
