We travel to the Colca Canyon, over twice as deep as the Grand Canyon and peppered with thermal hot springs. Charlie visits the local villages where it's fiesta time and goes in search of the elusive condor. Moving south we sample a strange local river shrimp and trek to the mystical valley of Toro Muerto, famed for its ancient rock paintings. From here we descend towards the Amazon for a visit to Tambopata and the Lake Sandoval nature reserve where Charlie climbs into the rainforest canopy and eats the local speciality - live worms. Finally it's back to the coast where and a chance to cool off in the Humboldt current and go swimming with sea lions.
