One thing that separates vacations in Peru from other destinations in South America – or even other destinations throughout the world – is that is an intensely spiritual place. As a result Peru is a hotspot for spirituality-based tours – through Machu Picchu and other locations in the country. Converts say that there are certain points throughout the globe have a deeper spiritual resonance. That, of course, is up for argument, but even the cynical and skeptical who come to Peru have to acknowledge a kind of indescribably magic in Peru.
There are spiritual sites throughout Peru: on the shores of Lake Titicaca, the sacred sites of the Cusco region, the aforementioned Machu Picchu, and other sites in Peru. Some tours through Peru are led by mystical visionaries. However you only need to visit a landmark like Machu Picchu to experience it’s magical qualities of the Incan ruins. A guided tour can be highly informative and exciting, but self-guided tours are also popular, as they allow people to explore Peru on their own time. People have been known to come to Peru for specialized healing and to take part in rituals.
Of course, this is only a subset of Peru tourism, so every trip to Peru doesn’t involve a spiritual quest, but certainly reading about Peru’s history and how people regard the mysterious jungles of Peru will color your experience. It is best to visit Peru with an open mind and open heart to make the most of what should be a fantastic vacation experience.
