We start this trip in Rio, Brazil's most famous city and home to Christ the Redeemer and then travel on to exlore Brasilia and on to the Pantanal. As something of a first, Dragoman has pioneered the route across the Amazon Jungle between Rio and Cusco. Our new exploratory route cuts straight through the heart of Brazil's Amazon Jungle, crossing into the jungles of Peru and then climbing up the mighty Andes and onto the city of Cusco, gateway to the Inca Empire and the famous trail.   

From there we hug the Peruvian coastline taking in Colca Canyon, Arequipa and head on to Lima.
