“It seemed that the right time to do something meaningful was turning 50, and Machu Picchu had always been on that silent “someday” list. Last year I turned 50, and traveling through Peru with my wife made that milestone an experience so much richer than we could have ever imagined. Everything from flying over the Andes to walking through the Sacred Valley each day felt well planned and balanced, allowing for pauses and time to reflect and soak it all in. It was deeply moving to finally see Machu picchu, not just being in a place of such remarkable history, but because of what that feeling represented at this time in my life. Cusco and Lake Titicaca were a great addition of culture and warmth to make the trip feel complete, not just rushed. This was not a box-checking trip; this was about marking a moment in my life in the most memorable way imaginable.”
“I felt misled about the first night in Lima and the fact that Indus was not providing a hotel because we had not booked our flights from the US through them. We had already been in south America for 3 weeks by then so I had booked our own flights from Santiago Chile. I believed I had booked an 8 night tour.”
“Itinerary was well planned so that we were able to adjust to the altitude. Program was well paced. Local guides were very knowledgeable, spoke excellent English, and love what they do. We learned so much about the history and culture of Peru in a short time.”
