What people love about Peru Tours in December
- 7 Day Andean Experience Through the Living Culture of the Incas
This was an excellent tour that exceeded my expectations in what I was able to see about what Peru is all about physically, culturally, and socially. I really enjoyed seeing the geography and agricultural aspects as well as the amazing archeological sites. My guide Carlos was wonderful. His knowledge of Peru history, culture, and sociology was very complete. Being the only one on the tour, which is not uncommon, was phenomenal. It gave me the opportunity to ask many detailed questions all of which Carlos answered well. Ask for him to be your guide if possible. This tour is certainly all and more of what it says it is. An in depth cultural, social, and physical look at what Peru is all about. It is a FIVE STAR PLUS.
Moshe & Milla The service during the Inca Jungle Trail was truly extraordinary. Everything was well organized from the moment we arrived in Cusco till we departed from the airport. Our tour guide, Guido was spectacular. He explained the schedule in detail and showed great concerns for our safety. He made sure to create a structure with punctuality, yet he thought to make it as comfortable for us as possible. Guido conveys information through illustrations, activities and a lot of humor which made the whole experience worth remembering. An important asset in a tour guide is the art of patience. Guido has lots of it! During every hardship and struggle we faced, he always kept calm and positive. Not to mention, he’s a great photographer! We definitely had an unforgettable experience.
