By bus it'll take you probably like a week or so.
And it won't be a pleasant ride.
And it won't be a cheap ride either.
Catch a plane, it's cheaper, faster and way more comfortable.

Would suggest you take a piano.

Ok fuck it, if you are crazy enough to try it.
Ormeño (major bus company in Peru) offers a bus from Lima to Sao Paulo. It is THE LONGEST BUS IN THE WORLD.

As far as I know, it is not a sleeper bus (cama suite) so expect for an extremely unpleasant 4 days.

If you actually are crazy enogh to try this.
At least stop by Cusco to shave off a day and to see Manchu Pichu. (it is Pikia good)

how much is this ?
if i flew to Lima then took it would i actually save any money ? flight to sao paulo being about 800 and to lima 400

800 and 400 what you dense?
Soles? Reais? Mosquitoes?

Apparently they started a new line that goes from Rio de Janeiro to Lima and it costs 830 reais. That would be about US$300.
In other words, you pay US300 to spend 5 miserable days in a bus surrounded by Peruvians and, hopefully, no crying child.
I think to Sao Paulo is a bit cheaper, but not that much.
And I heard you can get a discount if you pay on cash (if you're crazy enough to be carrying that much money on you in a third world country, which I wouldn't recommend).

I don't know about Peru-Bolivia border, but do take care with Bolivia-Brazil one. It's a smuggling (including guns and drugs) zone

>800 and 400 what you dense?
dollars mate
also bus sounds horrible wouldn't take that

Op here
so its now looking like im flying from sao paolo too La Paz then im gonna try to get across lake titticaca and then go on from there, anything i should try too see on the way other then machu pichu? is it worth staying in rio/surrounding are for longer than 1 week?

No.
There're other states that are worth visiting for that long, but not rio. Rio is infested with criminals that carry army-grade weapons and will kill anyone that enters their territory. It's not unheard of and even not that uncommon to hear tourists being killed because they entered a favela.
The "safe" places to visit in rio are just the damn expensive touristic areas so don't bother. It'll be crowded and you'll waste tons of money.

State of minas gerais is awesome, just besides rio and its border with sao paulo also has lots of mountains, which are great if you like hiking.

i stayed in rio fror 5 weeks didn't have any problems didn't even stay in touristy area, i was in centro
but if you are tall and white (i'm not) you will stand out and that is not good but with all the tourist for carnival they will probably just think you are an argie if you can speak Spanish
