Beautiful bays and fabulous coastline, extensive sand dunes, and caves with glowworms, and the place where the waters of the Pacific Ocean and the Tasman Sea clash. It’s Far North of New Zealand. And here are 5 places that we think are really worth seeing there!

Fiji-time on Mana Island
Fiji-time is not just an expression. It’s not only a name for the time spent in Fiji. Fiji-time is almost a lifestyle. This is something that we – Europeans – are missing, and what we will never fully understand. After all, it’s worth to take an example from the Islanders and live just a few […]
Poor man’s Galapagos – Paracas National Reserve and Islas Ballestas
Who wouldn’t like to see the unique Galapagos Islands? Beautiful, wild, with a plethora of endemic species of flora and fauna. We’d love to visit them! But when traveling through Peru we found a place called “Little Galapagos” or “Poor man’s Galapagos”. It’s Paracas National Reserve and Islas Ballestas.
(Extra)ordinary oasis – Huacachina
Heat, hot sun and vast sand dunes everywhere around. Somewhere between these dunes, a small oasis is hidden. And it almost perfectly resembles a classic desert mirage imagination. But Huacachina is not an ordinary oasis…
Nazca Lines – our second ‘must see’ in Peru
We think that most of you heard about the famous Nazca lines. “Drawings on the ground” proclaimed a UNESCO World Heritage Site, whose meaning was never clearly confirmed. To be in Peru and skip it? It was our “must see” 😉
Hiking the Colca Canyon
Majestic condors, breathtaking scenery and one of the most exhausting trails we hiked so far. These brief words are the best description of Colca Canyon, one of the deepest canyons in the world.
Arequipa surrounded by Volcanoes
Arequipa is the only city in Peru, which we fully enjoyed. Welcoming people, positively surprising situations and beautiful architecture made the days in “White City” memorable.
On the Lake Titicaca
Peru fascinates with its landscapes. One day you’re by the ocean – the other high in the mountains. After a few days in hot and humid jungle you get on the ship and cruise at the highest navigable lake in the world. And that’s just one of the things about Lake Titicaca.
Couple days in Peruvian jungle
For most tourists Peru is mainly Inca ruins, beautiful coast and high Andes. But not everyone realizes that 60% of the country covered the Amazon jungle – pristine, green and very dense forest, in which man is only a guest of nature.
Machu Picchu – The Pearl of Peru
Finally, we made it to our last stop in an amazing trip through the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Machu Picchu, considered one of the 7 New World Wonders, is the greatest jewel of the Inca culture in Peru. We had always dreamed about visiting that beautiful place. In the end we managed to fulfill […]
