Where to walk in Peru

  • Arequipa (2 tours): White volcanic stone carved flat like cloth, El Misti over the cathedral roof, a walled monastery the size of a city block, rocoto relleno at a picantería lunch. A colonial city rebuilt in its own stone, earthquake after earthquake.
  • Cusco (3 tours): Inca stone supporting Spanish cathedrals, Quechua mixing with Spanish in the markets, cuy from open kitchens, 3,400 metres of altitude in every step. Where the Inca Empire's capital still holds up the Spanish one that conquered it.
  • Lima (3 tours): Closed wooden balconies over a checkerboard laid out in 1535, cliff-top parks high above the Pacific, a grey garúa sky through most winters, ceviche at lunch. A colonial capital rebuilt after its earthquakes, with seaside districts on the edge of the cliff.
