“I am 67 years old and I have bad knees and balance issues. I was skeptical about this trip but I went anyway and I am so very glad I did. I did things at the pace I felt comfortable with and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I settled on a plateau at Machu Picchu, with a great view, taking in all the beauty of it, without climbing all the way to the top. The climb up on the 'big island' was quite difficult, but with the help of some new friends, I made it and the lunch was fantastic. The tour was well organized and our tour guide Luis offered great information with such a passion. The hotels were beautiful and I made some very lasting memories. I would recommend this trip to friends and family. Thanks for a great experience.”

“this was a great tour but the altitude can slow you down if you are used to flat land at sea level. the history was amazing and so were the people. the guide knew her way around the area and helping us adjust to the altitude. the trip is mostly in the Andes with the final days in Lima.”

“Such an amazing tour.. thanks to the excellent guide Dagmar Becerra. She's everything a tour guide should be.. competent, knowledgeable, smart, patient. Our group was so much fun and interesting too, from riding the vistadome train to trekking Machu Picchu, exploring the Uros floating islands and riding the double-decker reedboat in Lake Titicaca, and even just enjoying the live music at the restaurants and group dancing the night away.. what an incredible experience!”

“This was an amazing tour. The tour guide Dagmar Becerra gave us a good feel for the culture and the history of the people. She took care of the young and the mature people of the group. Thank you Dagmar for taking your job seriously and making this trip enjoyable to everyone.”

“Everything that I expected and more. Tour guide, Dagmar, was amazing! We took the trip to see Matchu Pitchu, but we fell in love with Peru. The colors, the friendly people, not to mention the shopping! What a trip! A few inconveniences while there, nothing crazy, but the tourist industry is in its infancy, so not unexpected. But, its still so natural, it was worth it!”

“I wanted to start by saying that Enrique our tour director, was amazing. He made us feel like we really mattered. He even let my husband and I tag along with him during his down time to enjoy an amazing meal in the town below Machu Pichu. The hotels were great, although the beds were a bit hard in Cuzco( but that is not anyones fault). The food was great, and every place that Enrique recommended to eat was amazing. The value as usual was unbeatable. Our only input for improvement might be that you add an extension to the end of the trip in Lima of a day or two with the optional tour of going to see the Nazca lines, otherwise had a great time. The group was all fun to be with as well. Thank you again for all of wonderful experiences, I look forward to the next adventure!”

“We had an extremely pleasant vacation!!! The trip activities, hotels, flights and guides were outstanding. THis was our first tour experience and it was superb (not sure future will be the same.. ;-( we are used to coordinating our vacations ourselves). One big minus on the tour is that there is practically no time at all in Lima!!! Paying for only the land portion to extend stay is not economically fair. Nevertheless was an outstanding experience...”
