Peru / Passport Mission Trip

The ancient Incan civilization of Machu Picchu tells the history of the Peruvian people. Their traditions date back millennia, but Peru’s future is poised for change. 

Filled with jaw-dropping terrain, Peru is one of the most bio-diverse countries on Earth. Peru’s landscape includes the lofty peaks of the Andes, vast coastal deserts and the lush, tropical rain forests of the Amazon Basin.
