The stones of the great mountaintop Inca citadel of Machu Picchu, garlanded by clouds, tell stories of ancient kingdoms, riches beyond imagination and a way of life that is now gone forever. Wander through the abandoned city, marvel at the spectacular views and listen to the echoes of ages past. On the isles of the Galápagos, history is always in the making. In this living laboratory, swim with turtles in crystalline waters, and walk among marine iguanas and sea lions as they bask on the black volcanic stone. Above your head, countless species of birds soar through the equatorial skies.
