Beyond Machu Picchu!: Discovering Hidden Peru
May 1 - 13, 2012
Enrollment | More Info
Like the dark side of the moon, most of Peru is unknown even to South American travelers. Its glories and the richness of its ancient past are eclipsed by the meteoric rise and sudden collapse of the Incas. Long before Peru dreamt of the Incas, the Chimú dazzled the continent and before them the Moche reigned supreme and before the Moche archaeological records trace back 6000 years or more!. Under the direction of archaeologist Lawrence A. Conrad, Associate Professor Emeritus, a small group of adventurers will share a journey of fellowship, discovery and fun on the 2012 MexiMayan Peru exploration of Peru's hidden past.
