“It is great to know that you are going to have a fantastic holiday every time you travel to Peru.

JL, Cobham

By fay the most memorable part was our time at refugio Amazonas.... The staff made our stay wonderful. Really cannot recommend this place enough. 

JW, Swadlincote

Most memorable aspect: “, Macchu Pichu and Peru in general, especially in Cusco. We bought ourselves an open top bus ride in Cusco which was excellent value and was well worth doing. We also enjoyed an excellent 4 hour historical city tour in Lima which was a good way to learn about the city.”

DP, Watford

Highlights:- It is difficult to pick out just one experience from such a plethora of new ones.  There was so much to see and absorb in Peru which was fascinating but Machu Picchu must rate very highly in our list of memorable events on the mainland as must the whole Colca Canyon experience including the drives through the Highlands to Chivay.

ND, Lewes

Highlights?: Maccu Picchu and the trains to and from the Sacred Valley, also the hotels in Cusco and the Sacred valley.

AJ, London

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

The Peru holiday was all very well constructed. Favourite parts were the floating islands, the nocturnal canoe trip and the trek to Macchu Picchu. Organisation was brilliant and it all hung together very well. Thanks!

AMW, Letchworth

Fantastic!

“We enjoyed all the places we visited on our holiday in Peru, and the experience was enhanced by friendly and knowledgeable local guides. The spectacular scenery we saw will stay in our minds for quite some time.”

MM, Newcastle upon Tyne

"It was the overall experience that was important and I keep finding myself recalling small details that were entrancing at the time and then got lost in the next bout of sensory overload. In the end, I'd say it was the fact that I was able to speak almost nothing but Spanish for the duration of my trip that gave and gives me the greatest pleasure. Partly this is satisfaction that I adapted my Castillian Spanish so well to Peru. More importantly, I know that I got much more out of my guided tours because my guides were able to convey subtleties in their own language that would have got lost in translation. This is one of the key pluses of the 'tailor made' model. Having mainly private tours and excursions meant that I rarely had to compromise on this, for me, key aspect of the experience."

DM, Nottingham

Most Memorable Moment?: Perhaps looking down on Machu Pichu for the first time, or was it the ceviche for lunch as part of the buffet in the Sacred Valley, or maybe Buenos Aires( a mixture of New York side walks and Parisian Boulevards )or the tranquillity of the gardens @ L'Auberge Hotel. and not forgetting the splendour of the Basilica at Cusco

AD, Cheltenham

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

RC, Ealing

Most Memorable Moment?: Arriving at Machu Pichu - seen the photographs could not believe actually there.

CM, Bradford-on-avon

Highilght: Watching condors rise on the thermals in Sondondo.

RE, London

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

JA, Staines-upon-thames

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

TA, Edinburgh

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

MH, Manchester

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

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

ME, Carlisle

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

It was memorable because of the cultural and geographical variety so can't pick out particular part.    We were in 3 different climates, in mountains, jungle and coast.  Probably enjoyed the places where we had most interactions with nature i.e. Lake Titicaca and jungle.

SL,

Most Memorable Moment?: The train from Cusco to Puno ... Best day by far. Plenty of time to relax and hang out with the family in very comfortable surroundings, fantastic views all they way.  Also loved Lake Titicaca ... Again a great day.

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

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.

RS, Northwood

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

TS, Birmingham

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

DH, Aylesbury

Highlight: Being able to recreate photographs at Sasqaywaman above Cusco of our relatives who came to live in Peru in 1910. 

CC, Bristol

"Obviously Machu Pichu was a highlight but Ollaytaytambo was impressive, Chinchero was lovely and Cusco was fantastic [we're looking into buying a house there!] the Vistadome, particularly with the staff on the return journey to Cusco, who put on a fashion show, music and dancing for us, which they genuinely seemed to enjoy too, was fantastic. I'd also really recommend Huaco Pacllano in Lima - I'd never seen a site like it before."

SAG, Hythe

Highlight: Reaching the sun gate mid/late afternoon to see Machu Picchu bathed in sunshine.
