Peru
Machu Picchu is the headline, but Peru's real gift to long-term travellers is range: the Amazon, the world's deepest canyons, the Cordillera Blanca, Lima's food scene and a cheap, well-trodden gringo trail that makes solo travel easy.

السلامة
Petty theft in Lima and Cusco, express kidnappings via unlicensed taxis in Lima, and periodic political protests that block roads and the rail line to Machu Picchu. Avoid the VRAEM coca-growing region (government warning). Altitude sickness in Cusco (3,400 m) is the most common medical problem.
