Evening departure from Arequipa with a cocktail reception followed by dinner before you tuck into your sumptuous cabin where you let the scenery lull you to sleep.

Your full day of expertly guided excursions includes Taquile Island and Uros,
The Floating Islands. After a well-deserved deserved dinner, snuggle down for another night in your home away from home. After breakfast the next day, cross through deep valleys and high mountains where camelids graze in the wide open plains of the Altiplano. Stop in the village of Raqchi, also known as the Temple of Viracocha because of its emblematic constructions before arriving into the Cuzco station in the early afternoon.
Depart in the morning from Cuzco and travel across the Altiplano towards Puno. Stop in the village of Raqchi, also known as the Temple of Viracocha because of its emblematic constructions and La Raya, the highest point on the Cusco-Puno route at 4,335 meters above sea level, the perfect place to see the beautiful snow-capped Andes and the many llamas and vicunas roaming.
The final destination of the day is the highest navigable lake in the world, Lake Titicaca.
