    An unforgettable trip of a lifetime. After so many trips, this was probably one of the most impressive and perfectly organised 2-week round trip I have ever experienced, with a very nice and friendly tour group and our guide Luis, who did an excellent job of informing us about the history, geography as well as current events of Peru, including the continent. Every day was full of sights to discover, every day was interesting and full of news, although we made a long journey and it was sometimes exhausting. But no stretch, no tiredness was in vain, because thanks to the professional drivers and local guides, it was the earth of Peru itself, with its diverse colours, areas, people, climate and dreamlike landscapes, that always surprised, amazed and sometimes moved you between speechlessness and tears of unique beauty. From the legendary Machu Picchu to the fiery red rocks of Cola Canyon, from Lake Titicaca, the warm-hearted people and the lovely host family on the island of Amantani to the magical volcanic area, from the region of Ica and many, many places, this beautiful country of Peru is always worth a trip, no matter if it is a round trip or just regional. No matter which region or city I mention, none of it would have been so perfectly possible without our professional tour guide Luis, whose narrations on the bus I kept wishing would never stop, as he not only shared historical facts and local peculiarities with us, but also answered every conceivable question from fellow travellers clearly, precisely and absolutely understandably. Luis, you remain for us an unforgettable, wise, very intelligent and funny tour guide. I would also like to thank the Exodus team for the excellently planned itinerary, even though the planned time in Aguas Caliente proved too long for such a small place. Whomever Luis is assigned as tour guide, he can be sure that he is in good hands and travelling with a very experienced and friendly soul. The many drivers and local guides may forgive me for not remembering their worthy names, but they all did their best, from day to night, from the mountains to the dry and hot areas all over Peru. Thank you. Muchas Gracias. Sulpayki.

    It was great tour with nice people traveling. Great tour leader ‘Luis’ was able manage us and our needs of travel, food and adventure trips. We did hiking and visited highlands of Peru, beach, mountains, deserts and some part of rainforest. Hotel accommodations were ok with their services. Tour guides were able to answer our questions and provided detail of tour we did. We traveled in bus and mini vans and very comfortable buses. Restaurants for dinner and lunch was picked as best per our tour leader.

    Essential Peru was an extraordinary trip, with a perfect itinerary. The hotels were good to average, but centrally located and we had a great tour director called Leo, who was professional, enthusiast and friendly. I would recommend this trip to anyone. There are few of them to cross the Andes Mountain by motor coach, and also few to visit Ballestas Islands, Nazca Lines, and Ica the only oases in South America.
