Peru trips are usually fairly active in their nature; clambering over ruins, climbing to spectacular vistas and scenic drives are key elements. Luckily, there are certain areas that are more suited to rest and relaxation so do let us know if you prefer to include down time in your itinerary! One of our favourite ways to slow the pace at the end of a trip is to add time in the astoundingly beautiful Sacred Valley – here you can spend a few days soaking in the views and recharging your batteries before returning home. Other options include spending a few days at the northern beaches near Mancora – these usually involve extra flights via Lima, so do bear this in mind.
