Discover Peru's Natural Wonders on Oakton Tour

Plunge into the culture, history, and ecology of Peru on a travel/study program sponsored by Oakton Community College. Trips in 2008 depart in January, April, June, July, and August. A two-week trip for 2008 led by Bea Cornelissen, special events and tour manager at Oakton, is scheduled to depart June 21.

See the spectacular wildlife ecosystems available in Colca, Arequipa, and Ballestas Islands. Ponder the magnificence of Machu Picchu and how the ancient civilization of the Incas built this archeological masterpiece. Fly over the desert to view the mysterious Nasca Lines.

Lower cost versions of this learning vacation are available for the budget-minded traveler. Alternative trips include more modest accommodations and meal packages. Jungle extension tours to Puerto Maldonado and Manu are available at an additional cost.
