DracoArgentum posted:I'm looking into going to Peru this summer but having some issues deciding what exactly to see. Machu Picchu is obviously a definite, but the rest I'm not sure about. I will only have about 10-12 days so time is also an issue. From the research I've done it seems lake Titicaca is pretty out of the way and not worth more than a day, but it's easily paired with Colca canyon and the Nazca lines. So that is theoretically one option, the other would be the Amazon. So my main question is, are titicaca/colca/nazca/the Amazon worth the trip to the point it's worth it to cut out the others. I've been looking at tours as well as peruhop bus matched with hostels but I need to narrow down my choices first. I like culture and ancient history, but my main goal is food to be honest. If I had to choose between visiting the Amazon and eating a capybara I would choose the latter. So, with that in mind... I went to Peru 2 1/2 years ago. You have limited time so I cannot recommend what to specifically do or where to go. But I was very happy with my experiences in Peru. The bus transpo is superb: top-end buses with good seats, security, affordable, and they have night buses where you can sleep in large reclining chairs. I actually fell asleep on a Peruvian night bus. My point is that you may be tempted to fly b/c of time, but a night bus ride can be worth doing depending on how far the places you choose to visit are apart. I went to lake Titicaca. Interesting landscape, but in the end, it's a lake. Enjoy your trip.
