- MJMary Eileen· October 23rd, 2024A well executed tour. I travelled solo. I had someone greet me at the airport on arrival and departure. The hotels they chose for the tour were excellent. Clean and visually interesting hotels. All tour guides were helpful and friendly. I would use Lima Tours again. I also got to meet other travellers during group tours. So nice to meet other people and make some new friends. I felt completely safe as a solo traveller and in good hands. I did the Heart of The Empire tour. Well done Lima Tours!

LimaTours commented on this reviewHello Mary, Thank you for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the Heart of the Empire tour, felt safe traveling solo, and made new friends along the way. It was a pleasure to have you with us, and we look forward to your next adventure... Show moreTrip date: October 2024 - VGVimla· May 14th, 2024Peru is an absolutely beautify country and a definitely must see! All the guides were very friendly and informative. Day 2 SACRED VALLEY – CHINCHERO – OLLANTAYTAMBO was absolutely lovely with a full day of activity. The place I stayed at Ollantaytambo was so peaceful and beautiful surrounded by mountains. The trip to Machu Picchu was well organised. You are picked up from the hotel and taken to the train station. The train ride is stunning. Unfortunately I didn’t have window seats going or coming so you need to ensure when you book that window seats are a non negotiable. You are met by a guide who takes accompanies ypu on the bus trip up the mountain to Machu Picchu and gives you a guided tour. I was booked on circuit 4 to my absolute disappointment. ( it is important to make sure when you book the tour that you are are on circuit 1&2) I tried to get tickets for circuit 1&2 the following day. Sadly after sitting in the line at the government office for almost 2 hours the only time for circuit 1&2 tickets was at 2 pm and my train was already booked for 2. I returned to Cusco very disappointed.Show moreLimaTours commented on this reviewDear Vimla, we are happy to know that you were able to enjoy the peace and tranquility of Cusco and the Sacred Valley, as well as its tourist attractions.
