Visit one of the deepest canyons in the world.

Immerse yourself in incredible landscapes, witness the majestic flight of condors, and embrace the rich cultural heritage of the Andean region.

Colca Canyon in southern Peru is one of the deepest canyons in the world, but it’s not just its scale that impresses - it’s the combination of dramatic landscapes, centuries-old Andean culture and unique wildlife that make this region such a rewarding place to explore. A trip here offers a chance to slow down and connect with the rhythm of rural Peruvian life, whether you're soaking in natural hot springs, wandering through terraced fields or watching condors soar on morning thermals.

“The Colca Canyon is one of those places that takes you by surprise,” says Amanda, our South America expert. “Yes, the views are jaw-dropping, but it’s also about the small, human touches - a chat with a local farmer, the scent of eucalyptus in the air, the quiet moments in colonial villages like Yanque.”

This region is ideal for walkers and photographers, with scenic trails, sweeping vistas and the ever-present Andes as a backdrop. It can be visited as a standalone escape or as a quieter, more authentic contrast to the buzz of Machu Picchu. Whether you’re here for the culture, the landscapes or the wildlife, Colca Canyon offers a rare sense of stillness and perspective that stays with you.
