Hacienda Santa Maria

Machu Picchu was the most memorable part of the trip. The rain forest was fun. We loved the Andean Express train journey too.

MdlATS, London

Everything was fantastic. We had a great holiday that we will remember for years to come.  

CLA,

Seeing the Condor being released back into the wild.

JA, Glasgow

"We saw some amazing scenery, the train was wonderful and Machu Picchu unbelievable."

PS, Stanmore

Undoubtedly visiting Machu Picchu. Albeit have to give special mention to Soy y Luna, Colca Lodge and Antigua Casona San Blas, they made us feel very special. Finally the organisation and the guides were all warm and friendly and made us feel like family.

Most memorable experience: “Probably visiting the islands on Lake Titicaca followed closely by HB train and Machu Picchu"

MM, Newcastle Upon Thyne

We really enjoyed the whole trip and found the Peruvian people very friendly and helpful and determined to better themselves and their country.

SJ, Cambridge

We love Peru and the people every time we go back it is a memorable experience.

Highlight?: The train journey to M Picchu and seeing M Picchu - absolutely awesome and I got a seat on the left of the train (for best views!). The tour of the Salt Flats and journey to San Pedro were stunning too. Really good tour guide during this part. Hannah at JLA was a great help before and during the holiday. She made it possible to visit on the desired dates (e.g. so I could go on a star gazing tour in San Pedro during a change in mood cycle). Always replied promptly to my emails. Especially appreciated little extras - e.g. being on the left of the train to M. Picchu for the best views, being allocated window seats on planes, etc. All this meant I could really enjoy the scenary. Stand out hotels were in Urubamba, M. Picchu, and Uyuni - all exceeding my expectations. I didn't realise so many lunches / dinners were included which was a great bonus. 

MP, Amersham

Very enjoyable

"The most enjoyable… having chocolate pancakes in the narrow cobbled streets of Cusco. And in the mountain village of Aguas Calientas. And in lots of other places. The kids having fun with the cats at the cat park of Lima. Meeting a mountain family and finding out about their way of life. This included meeting their guinea pigs – kept purely for their meat.”

LBM, South Africa

Colca canyon really exceeded expectations and we hadn't been aware of this destination prior to arranging the trip.

JA, Staines-upon-thames

We were impressed by everything we saw, however the visit to Machu Picchu and the islands on Lake Titicaca were the most memorable  The former is an iconic site and the guide, Freddie was excellent. The islands on the lake were fascinating the local people were very welcoming and our guide Willi was brilliant.  

LS, Ruislip

The whole holiday was memorable and the flow and way it had been planned was excellent - we had a build up that allowed us to visit other parts of Peru, acclimatise and take in the history, culture and natural scenery before capping it off with the Inca trail and Machu Picchu! 

AB, Reading

Peru is one of those countries that becomes memorable on so many levels. Each place I visited made my heart miss a beat I simply loved it all( I also loved my visit to the taquile and eat with the local people, the food was amazing and people simply beautiful.)

DC, London

Most Memorable Moment?: Machu Picchu... does anyone traveling to Peru ever put anything else? :-)

ME, Carlisle

Most Memorable Moment?: Machu Pichu probably the best experience but the train journey there was amazing (and unexpectedly so).  

TA, Edinburgh

Highlight?: Machu Picchu

RN, London

A short note of thanks for organising our Peruvian holiday. The fast moving itinerary went exactly to plan, all the accommodation was excellent and exactly as you described....We all thoroughly enjoyed the two weeks and will recommend JLA to friends.

AF, Chiswick

Most Memorable Moments?: Seeing a forest of Puyas de Raimondi near Huarez The trek from Ascobamba to Pillcocancha particularly the hospitality of the campesinos and watching cows being milked by hand. The visit to Tarmatambo visiting the ruins and being approached by a small boy called Kevin who persuaded his mother to give us lunch. Having a small face carved for me at Molinos near Jauja by a woodcarver. He wouldn't take any money.

RM, London

Most memorable experience: “The jungle was fantastic and being alone in Lake Titicaca as well.” 

SD, South Ealing

Most Memorable Moment?: Cusco - such a great atmosphere with so much history.

MH, Manchester

Inca Trail: This was an incredible experience. The guide/porters were extremely helpful and knowledgeable.

DH, Aylesbury

For me, I think that it was the Lords of Sipan and Royal Tombs Museum, and the Temple of the Moon at Trujillo. For Angela, it was Tucume and the Temple of the Moon.

PS, Reading

Highilght: Watching condors rise on the thermals in Sondondo.

RE, London

A fantastic travel company for Peru. Highly respected locally. The whole Itinerary was flawless with extremely professional local reps in Peru. I believe the Inca trail company in Cusco to be the best there!

JD, Swansea

Most Memorable Moment?: Getting to the top of Huayna Picchu.

PR, Edinburgh

“The range of experiences was like an assault course on the senses. The geography, the cultural diversity, the wildlife, the colours.” 

RC, Ealing

The Inca Trail with the 3 day camping has to be the most memorable part.  It was an extraordinary adventure - tough, exhilarating, stunning and as a family with grown up children an amazing challenge to do as a group of 5. We all loved Peru and our holiday.  Peru surprised us.  It blew our minds.  The country is stunning, the people charming, the history fascinating and the food absolutely delicious.  We look forward to returning and maybe trying the Salcantay trek!  We will definitely want to return to El Tambo for more chill time!
