Unforgettable - There are not enough words to describe the adventures we had in Peru. From seeing the Real Felipe Fortress in Lima, Peru to the Double Decker Bus Tour throughout the city, there was not one thing we could find that Mila was not knowledgeable about. Spanish is not our main language and Mila was the most perfect Translator. She helped us navigate through the streets of Lima while providing us with the rich history and culture of the Peruvian People. Every day was a new adventure and Mila would help with transportation and planning so that we could enjoy the most of Peru. Seeing the famous Peruvian horses to making our own chocolates, there was so much variety in our adventures. One thing I enjoyed was the local dining places she would take us to so that we could gorge ourselves on the most delicious Peruvian Cuisine. Mila is very personable, kind-hearted, patient, and most of all, knowledgeable. We are going back again and before I book my dates, my #1 priority will be to make sure Mila is available.
