ATLANTIS IN THE ANDES
Peru & Bolivia Tour 2015

Megalithomania and Hidden Inca Tours join forces with author J.M. Allen to explore one of the possible sites of Atlantis.


October 13th - 23rd 2015
Includes pre-tour add-on to Nazca
& post-tour add-on to Bolivia

On this unique tour of Peru and Bolivia we will be joined by our very special guest J.M. Allen who has authored many books about, and is the originator of the idea that the island of Atlantis was in fact located in the Andes region of South America. Brien Foerster and Hugh Newman are co-hosting the tour.

After serving with the Royal Air Force, Jim Allen used his expertise in mapping and aerial intelligence to identify the location of the site of Atlantis from Plato's description. After publishing his initial findings in Atlantis: The Andes Solution in 1998, he followed this up with numerous expeditions in the field. His research was the subject of a Discovery Channel documentary and earned him an honorary doctorate from Oruro Technical University in Bolivia. He lives in Cambridge, UK. See Allen's full research at www.atlantisbolivia.org

Hugh Newman has been a megalithomaniac for many years, travelling the world trying to work out what the ancients were up to. He organises the Megalithomania conferences in the UK, US and South Africa and has been travelling to Peru since 2007. His book "Earth Grids" covers the connections between sites in South America and the rest of the world. He has appeared on Ancient Aliens in 4 seasons. www.hughnewman.co.uk

Brien Foerster has published several books on ancient Peruvian culture and collaboared with David Hatcher Childress on "The Enigma of Cranial Deformation". He is a regular guest on Ancient Aliens and is one of the worlds leading researchers on the elongated skulls and the pre-history of Peru. www.brienfoerster.com

The team are also joined by Irene Maria Mendoza (Briens's wife) and Peru resident, plus our Gustavo Morales from Bolivia, our experienced English speaking tour guide.

Day 4: 16th Oct: Andahuaylillas Museum, outside Cusco (1 hour drive) to visit the human/hybrid baby skeleton, that was all over the media last year, and see the mountain where it was found, mysteriously called Wiracochan ("where the creators descended").

This place is simply huge, and is also where we catch the train to go to Machu Picchu the next morning. It is a very complex site, with the Temple of the Sun, agricultural terraces, water features, the Temple of the Condor and a 400 foot tall carved stone face of the great and mysterious teacher called Viracocha. Around the side of the mountain lie various gargantuan megalithic blocks that came from the neighbouring mountain's quarry, but did not quite make it up to Ollantaytambo. Time to explore the beautiful town that has a great market. Overnight in Ollantaytambo. Hotel Hacienda de Valle B

Day 8: 20th Oct: Machu Picchu: What can one say; this is the crowning jewel of Peru, the so-called lost city. Here we will also find evidence that a much older culture once lived here, and will learn what it’s real name is. The unique and classy train ride from Ollantaytambo goes through the Sacred Valley, following the path of the Inca Trail. On the way we will see various ruins along Urumbamba river, as it connects the highlands with the jungle. We then get a bus up to the ruins, and spend at least 4 or 5 hours exploring this complex site, with time for meditation and ceremony. We will also have time to explore the market and small town.

We visit the enigmatic Cutimbo, a chulpa site with polygonal construction, strange carvings that look like they are from Gobekli Tepe in Turkey, and a huge square chulpa that you can crawl inside. This place is usually free of other people, so is a great place for quiet time and ceremony. Lunch at the Sillustani restaurant with beautiful views of Lake Titicaca. Sillustani is famous for it’s round towers called Chullpas, some of which are thousands of years older than the Inca and are polygonal design. There is evidence of a cataclysm hitting the site, a museum hosting elongated skulls, and some monoliths that have carvings remarkably similar to those at Gobekli Tepe.
