PERU | 4x4 TRAVEL DOCUMENTARY

Peru's name is derived from Quechua, meaning Land of Abundance. Without a doubt, Peru would be one of the most diverse countries we would ever visit. Traveling this country in an off road camper would allow us to explore remote desert peninsulas with long sandy beaches, before cutting inland to explore snow capped mountains and glaciers situated at over 20,000 feet in elevation. This would only be a prelude to visiting the famous hidden Inca city, Machu Picchu, tucked into the mountains on the edge of the Amazon rainforest.
Peru is the 3rd biggest country in South America, with nearly endless wild camping opportunities, it often becomes an instant favourite destination for international overlanders. As a bonus, Peru is famous for its cuisine, we would spend over a month enjoying ceviches and fried fish along the coast as well as Lomo Saltado and Aji de Gallina among other dishes further in the mountains.
Ultimately, our attempt at documenting our experiences traveling through this incredible country would be thwarted when our truck would be broken into in the city of Cusco, resulting in the loss of two cameras (which contained SD cards with footage that had not yet been backed up) and a laptop, as well as multiple bags of clothing. Our friends in the white truck that we had run into multiple times would also have their rear window smashed and things stolen just days before us, in another part of the country.
Of course, these are the risks of living the van life and having everything you own in a car.

    Thanks for all the support everyone! We still have two more videos coming to end off the trip. We're also working on a new plan and intend to keep making videos and traveling in a bit of a different way.

But you're right, it actually can be a pretty tough way to live, even though it's a huge privilege. The videos have a great duality for us, in that they serve to inspire but are also a way for us to look back and remember our experiences.

    Depends what you're driving! We took the Highway 100 from Abancay because of a bridge closure, but that's like a 17 hour detour. We drove through huge waterfalls and landslides and needed 4x4 to make it. But in the dry season I think it's just a road. It had the most insane views we had ever seen, but there's no information on it anywhere at all.

    Gotcha….I was looking at it. I am driving a Rubicon, so no issues on bad roads. I was looking into doing the Tunnels of Carcaterra, off Abancay. Those look incredible as well. If I take 100, I will have to go to Abancay, do the tunnels and back track some….but based on what you are saying, it will be worth it. Thanks for the info!

    It's with so much sadness to see my country flooded in garbage, the northern part of Perú is just an eyesore landfill land, nobody cares about cleanliness there, what a difference side with the southern part.To top it off, thieves made your trip a miserable one. Just an advise, tourists with fancy stuff, make an easy prey for robbers. Don't make of yourself a foul and think you are immune, they know you bring dollar and expensive electronics, so always keep an eye of your belongings
