An adventure holiday in Peru
Adventure Travel offer you exciting holidays – and they’re not expensive! Go on a wonderful two-week trip across Peru from Lake Titicaca to the Amazon rainforest. And if you book the holiday before 29th August, you can save £400!
Days 2–5
On the second day, we’re going to start our trip at beautiful Lake Titicaca. Then, early in the morning of the next day, we’re going to fly to the city of Cusco. It’s an old, historical city with many things to see. The Inca people lived there many years ago and built wonderful monuments. We’re going to spend three days in the region, visiting the market of Pisac, walking Inca paths to ancient buildings, and staying overnight in a village house. On our final day we’re going to ride mountain bikes along the valley to the Inca fortress of Ollantaytambo.
Days 6–9
On the sixth day, we’re going to start walking to Machu Picchu – it’s a famous, historical Inca city on top of a mountain. It takes four days to walk there on an ancient path that takes you past small ruins along the way to Inti Punku, the Sun Gate, and your first fantastic views of the beautiful city. We’re going to spend the last of the four days looking at the wonderful old temples and climbing Huayna Picchu.
Days 10–13
We’re going to spend the last four days of the trip on a visit to the Amazon rainforest. We’re going to stay in a comfortable hotel near the Tambopata River and have lots of time to walk in the rainforest.
Responsible Travel
We’re going to stay in village houses during the trip, so you can meet local people and give money to the village communities. Adventure Travel also gives £5 to charity for every person travelling on this trip.

1 Read the text and complete the sentences with the correct number.
A fantastic hotel
Last summer, my wife and I were in Las Vegas for a week. We were at a very special hotel, the Venetian Resort Hotel on the Las Vegas strip. The Venetian is modern, luxurious, and very big! There are 7,000 rooms and suites in the hotel and in our suite there were three TVs – one in the bedroom, one in the living room, and one in the bathroom.
You can find everything at the Venetian. It’s a small town! There is a casino in the hotel and there are 17 restaurants. On our first night there, we were at the Bouchon restaurant. It was fantastic – but very expensive!
The hotel is really brilliant! There is a small lake near the entrance, and on the fourth floor, there are three swimming pools and a spa. On the second floor, there is a big shopping centre with canals and gondolas. It was like Venice!
There are a lot of things to do at the Venetian. You can visit a Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum with statues of famous Hollywood actors. Or you can go to the fantastic nightclub or to one of the theatres. There are three of them! You can also see great shows at the hotel’s art gallery.

1  In a suite at the Venetian hotel, there are ________ TVs.
2 There are ________ restaurants in the hotel.
3 There is a spa on the ________ floor.
4 You can go on a gondola on the ________ floor.
5 There are ________ theatres in the hotel.
