Cheap Flights to Peru | Cheap Flights Finder

When tales of the jungle-covered South America are told, the images they call to mind are those of Peru.

The 'Lost City of the Incas' (Macchu Picchu), the soaring Andes, the deep and lush Amazon basin, llamas and alpacas, and coastal desert; these are the stuff of legend.

Arriving in the capital city Lima, which hosts direct flights from major US cities, visitors are welcomed into a thriving city with well developed infrastructure despite being poorer than many Western countries. Lima is located on the coast, as are most of Peru's main centres, making the coast a perfect touring route for those with a hire car. From here it is possible to take detours for guided tours of sections of the Amazon Basin (“The Lungs of the Planet”), hikes into the Andes for spectacular views and interaction with the indigenous locals who retain the Quechuan language or Cuzco, the capital of the ancient Incan Empire, complete with tours to explain the sophisticated technology used by these mysterious people.

Back on the coastal ribbon, Peru is full of sleepy, welcoming seaside towns where fishing has been the mainstay of local livelihood for hundreds of years. These sit side-by-side the agriculturalists whose small and simple farms sustain their families and turn profits through the production of fruit, vegetables and seed products as well as the lucrative wool of alpacas and llamas.
