South America is home to some of the most spectacular and diverse natural
wonders on Earth: the vast Amazon River, the largest tropical rainforest in
the world, and the rocky Andes Mountains, which stretch the entire length of
the continent.
The Sunday Times Travel Magazine has teamed up with specialist travel company
Excedo – which offers bespoke luxury small-ship experiences and adventure
travel around the world – and KLM Royal Dutch Airlines to offer one lucky
reader and a guest the chance to win a South American trip of a lifetime –
to Peru.
This luxury 10-night holiday includes five-star hotels, an unrivalled
first-class train journey to Machu Picchu and a five-day river cruise down
the Peruvian Amazon aboard the magnificent M/V Delfin.
Experienced guides will accompany you as you explore the Amazonian rainforest,
fish for piranhas, swim with river dolphins, and learn about the history of
the Incas and lots more.
The winners will start their journey in Lima, where they will visit historical
cathedrals and palaces in the ‘City of the Kings’. In Cusco, a trip to
Urubamba, the Sacred Valley of the Incas, offers the opportunity to haggle
at the market of Pisac. Then, they will board Orient-Express’s luxury train,
the Hiram Bingham, named after the man who discovered Machu Picchu in 1911.
You’ll spend a day exploring the magnificent Inca ruins, then head on to
Iquitos to board the M/V Delfin for your Amazon voyage. With just seven
air-conditioned cabins, this new river vessel provides a casual but
luxurious environment.
