Machu Picchu and Easter Island are two of the most amazing archaeological sites in South America. Machu Picchu served as a center of worship, an astronomic observatory, and a private hacienda for the Inca Pachacutec. It was recently named as one of the New Seven Wonders of the World. Easter Island, located 2,200 miles west of Chile in the Pacific Ocean, is home to over 800 Moai statues, whose origin is still a mystery.

Lodging and Meals: This tour includes accommodations for 10 nights (2 nights in Lima, 3 nights in Cusco, 1 night in Machu Picchu, 1 night in Santiago, and 3 nights in Easter Island), and 13 meals (10 breakfasts and 3 lunches).
