Few destinations can truly be said to have it all, but Peru is among them. A trek to Machu Picchu should be on every backpacker’s bucket list, but drifting down the Amazon in a dugout canoe and exploring the colourful culture in the Andes are also must-dos.
When it’s time to recharge, head to the backpacker hangouts on the pacific coast for surf, sun and chilled-out beach parties.

Its ancient temples are unrivalled in their crumbling grandeur, its culture is rich and its more remote regions beg to be explored by the adventurous.
