World expeditions classic adventures Andes & Altiplano Trekking in the Andes is an exhilarating experience, after savoring the historical and cultural highlights of Cusco and the Sacred Valley of the Incas, whilst taking our time acclimatising, we commence our trek. For seven days we explore the Andean wilderness following trails to the soaring heights of the Cordillera Vilcabamba and establishing camp beneath the awesome flanks of 6220m Salcantay. This stunning trail is less trodden than the busier Inca Trail and is highly regarded by past trekkers.
On the final day we join the legendary Inca Trail for the dramatic post card view of Machu Picchu from the Sun Gate. Travelling across the Altiplano via Lake Titicaca we continue into Bolivia and begin our four day trek in the spectacular Condoriri region before continuing onto the Spanish capital of La Paz to capture the cultural pulse of Bolivia.

World Expeditions Classic Adventures: The High Road to Lhasa This is our classic Tibetan journey. A rugged crossing of the Tibetan Plateau linking the fabled city of Lhasa with Kathmandu. In the company of our Tibetan speaking guides we include the cultural highlights of Lhasa including the Potala Palace, the Jokhang temple, the Norbulingka plus the Drepung and
Sera monasteries, with visits to Gyantse (the Kumbum chorten) and Shigatse (the Tashilhunpo). A distinct highlight of the journey is our diversion to the famous Rongphu Valley to see Mount Everest’s north face from the famous historic 1922 Base Camp - an experience shared by only a handful of dedicated travellers each year on this remarkable journey through a once forbidden land.
