Walter is the BEST! The only activity you need to book when in Lima! - I cannot express enough how amazing this day was for both me and my partner. We struck GOLD when Walter was our guide. He is the best guide we had experienced who engaged with our tour group and made it feel like we all were one big friend group. Walter is very knowledgeable and ensured everyone was well looked after and happy. It was a VERY long day but we experienced a lot. The place we stopped at first for breakfast was delicious and cheap in price. Then we experienced the desert and national park. Got to see where the desert meets the sea. Dune buggy rides! And I saw my first ever oasis which was breathtaking! Do not hesitate and book this tour now - make sure you get Walter as he is the best! Would go again when back in Peru!

If your thinking about it, just do it - For my first time traveling in a different country, Diego made it more than memorable. This experience was wonderful and something my family and I will be talking about for years! From the beginning to the end, just amazing.

5 Stars - I had a great time and highly recommend for anyone visiting Peru. Everything was well organized and each location had it's own unique traits that made it special. The highlight is definitely the buggy ride for me - nice little adrenaline rush. Edwin is an amazing guide, super friendly, and passionate about his job. I would gladly do this tour again just to hangout with him! Great vibes all the way around.

No first aid available when needed - The tour was great, and activities fun, I reduced a star as I actually got injured during sand boarding and was not offered any first aid, so sand got in a bloody head wound. The guide also didn’t seem to be concerned by my injury.
