Optional: transfer to Tarapoto instead of Chiclayo. (9 hours) This adds a mountainous Amazon aspect to this trip so this cross section of Peru offers the world’s most extreme geography and life and cultures adapted to the world’s greatest rainforest, 2nd highest mountains, and driest desert with 260 pyramids like Egypt (Chiclayo). Airplane from Tarapoto leaves the next day to Lima.
