Good Choice - It was our first time traveling with a travel Agency and we loved it! We did miss having control of our own time, but everything worked out. All the places we visited were wonderful and the team at every place was wonderful. The only regret is not visiting the Seven Colors Mountain. Good service over all and very well coorinated.

Wonderful 8-Day Peru Tour - This was a well-coordinated trip! We got picked up upon arrival in Lima, Cusco and in Puno and transferred to our hotels. The tours, lead by Spanish- and English-speaking guides, were excellent. Lenin Roman was in contact with us both before and upon our arrival in Lima and then met up with us in person when we arrived in Cusco where he gave us all the tickets needed for our tours, transportation and entrance to Machu Picchu. I will highly recommend this 8-Day Peru tour.

Wow - Fabulous trip, looked after by Lenin and the extended team of transport and hotel staff who were all caring attentive and professional. Even when my Sister was taken ill arrangements and hotels were changed to accommodate her without any fuss. The trips and Machu Picchu was out of this world. Definitely recommend this tour and thank you to all the team.

Excellent Vacation - Many thanks to Lenin for such a well organized vacation. HOTELS: the hotels chosen by Lenin, were well located so we could walk around and experience the local scene and food, which is excellent. The hotel staff was very professional, and the breakfast buffets had a good diversity of food. TRAVEL: The tour gave us the opportunity to travel via cab, bus as well as by train. Each of them gave us a unique experience, which we enjoyed thoroughly. DAYS: Be prepared to begin the days begin quite early, since most of the days you will be covering a lot of ground. SITES: You are of course going here for the sites, and those were definitely better that we expected them to be. Many thanks to the agencies that are investing in maintaining these sites so well. ALTITUDE: if you live close to the coast, the altitude will definitely affect you. But nothing like some muna and coca tea to help you feel better. Overall, it was an exceptionally well put together and well coordinated trip. It was a memorable experience for the whole family. Lenin was available on phone and Whatsapp to answer our many questions. While we are not spanish speaking people, we found the Peruvian people exceptional, and we had absolutely no issues communicating with anyone, though, google translate did help a little bit :-)

Well-organized, action-packed tour itinerary - This tour delivered on its agenda. My adult daughter and I were amazed by the beauty of these places. It was a very busy itinerary having us wake up between 4:30-6:00 a.m. for pick up by a different driver or tour bus each day, but always punctual (if not early: once showing up at 5:15 instead of 5:30). The hotels were clean, staff friendly, breakfasts good and available early. The first night, since the restaurant wasn't open yet, provided us with a breakfast-to-go on the way to airport. This was a "third party" tour, where a company did all the organizing with other tours, so we never had the same people from day-to-day joining us on our outings, but there was always someone to count on and our organizer Lenin was a Whatsapp message away, quick to respond for any questions or concerns. He coordinated all the pick-ups/drop-offs and tours. The tour guides were all very kind and knowledgeable. We did tipping at the end of the day; which didn't seem common, but very appreciated by guides and drivers. The three included lunches were very good, as were any of the restaurants we went to for dinner. This country knows how to cook. We still followed the rules about not eating raw vegetables and only peelable fruit, drank only bottled water and had no stomach issues. The only down-side was that it may have been a little too busy, especially the first day in Cusco, trying to acclimatize to the altitude. Even with a prescription of medication and drinking coca tea (highly recommended upon arrival), we got altitude sickness, because rather than resting the first day, we did four different sites that afternoon. Symptoms by the end of the day were shortness of breath, blue lips, severe headache, nausea/loss of appetite and extreme tiredness. We should have taken it easy, but after 11 hours sleep felt much better. Headaches, breathlessness and tiredness hit us in Puno as well, the highest altitude of all places. Other advice: "buyer beware", the tour guide dropped by a silver jewelry making place, where you think you're getting great quality for the price, but it's not real. The silver started peeling off the ring later that day. Also by the last day we were exhausted and although the Lake Titicaca boat ride and islands (avoid toilets on these!) were truly interesting and beautiful, we could have skipped it just to relax. All in all AMAZING TRIP!

Memorable tour - The itinerary is excellent. If you are interested in a complete Peru experience in 8 days, we would recommend it. We visited so many archeological sites and historical monuments and we learned about Inca culture and the history of Peru. It is definitely worth the price considering the included hotels, meals and tours. We appreciated the fact that the travel agent was very responsive throughout our trip. Our only negative comment would be regarding the hotel in Cusco (Siete Ventanas) where there was barely any heating at below 0 temperature and the room was freezing cold. We would recommend booking a different hotel, particularly if travelling during Peruvian winter months. Furthermore, we would recommend allowing more time between the Machu Picchu visit and the time to catch the train back to Ollaytaytambo. We found ourselves having to run to catch our train after visiting Machu Picchu. Machu Picchu was the highlight of our trip so it would have been nice to leave the site calmly, and to have been able to grab lunch before taking the train. Overall in spite of these minor glitches, the fact remains that it was a once in a lifetime memorable trip and we do not regret booking this tour.

Overall very good, with room for improvement - I visited with my 19 y/o daughter in JAN 2020. If I were to do this again, I would not do the 8-day, but would book my own accommodations, transportation within Lima, Cusco, and Agua Calliente. I would do a 1 day Sacred Valley tour from Cusco. I would uber it to Otallatambo, and take the train to/from Agua Calliente, to visit Machu Picchu. I would book my own bus service from Cusco to Puno. The bus from Cusco to Puno was supposed to have wifi, and a bathroom, but it did not. I would book a 1 day Lake Titicaca tour from Puno. I did not like the hotels in Lima or Cusco, but really did like the hotel in Puno. It was in a great location. We were often waiting on tour transportation that was running late. There were several occasions that I considered getting an uber, rather than risking missing our next train or flight due to transportation running late. On one occasion, the driver was an hour late picking us up, and he was speeding and dangerously passing cars on the wrong side of the road as it was pouring rain through the mountains. I called out that driver and told him that it was unsafe, and directed him to slow down so that we made it to the train station alive, even if we miss our train. When booking, I thought that Machu Picchu and Lima were going to overshadow everything else. However, the experiences at Lake Titicaca, the Sacred Valley, and Cusco were a pleasant surprise. I see myself returning to Cusco and the Sacred Valley rather than Lima. This was an amazing experience, but I believe that it would be even better if the same places were visited, but 1 day "tours" were taken of the Sacred Valley and Lake Titicaca.

Fantastic Peru tours, well organized and great value for money - Made Whatapp contact with Lenin very early on and that helped a lot. Below are Highlights, Pros and Cons of our experience. Tiour Highlights - Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, Lake Titicaca Pros - All tours were well organized and Lenin explained them as soon as we reached Cusco. Tour guides were on time and took care of the pickup and drop off very well. Tour guides had good knowledge of all the historical, archeological and local places. Value for money. Hotels were all in good location. Tour Manager, Lenin, was always available over phone, in-case of any help. Cons - Hotels were average. No single guide for the entire tour.
