Many thanks for making our trip an unforgetable experience! Everything went smooth without any issues. Jorge was the main star of our trip, incredibly kind, knowledgable, patient, apart from the usual informations he also provided invaluable information about the history, and the life in Peru once and nowadays. Yure was pulling all strings from behind, always precise, accurate, available, even if our questions were almost obvious. The itinerary was well thought and it was no problem to even adapt it to our desires. Some hotels were excellent, some good, some ok, especially in the smaller places where there is not much choice. Many thanks again!
Private & Flexible Peru Tour: Machu Picchu, Cusco, Lake Titicaca, Colca Canyon, Lima, Ballestas Islands, Ica, Huacachina & Nazca 🌎✨Fantastic tour - and wonderful service from Lima Tours. Our tour guide, Ulysses, was fantastic. Our only recommendation would be a later flight on the day we flew from Lima to Cusco. There was no need to get to Cusco as early as we did.
Inca Treasures, Private TourItinerary was well rounded visiting the key Inka sites. That said, guides should provide a basic overview of the geography, geology, ecology and culture of the area including pre-Inka sites, so as to provide greater understanding of how the area has developed from Neolithic through Inka and Spanish colonization of the area. The timing of each day was very good. The driver was safe, efficient, familiar with routes and roads and driving conditions. Kantu Tours handled all the schedule, meals en route and hotels (2) while in Cusco and Urubamba. The accommodations were okay, but a loft bedroom for tourists over 60 was presumptive. While in great physical shape, a flat accommodation would be better. Towels were an issue in Cusco, they didn’t replace and only provided one hand towel, no wash cloth for room 310. The sites themselves were great, but by the end of the tour days, it seemed like sales overkill…tourist showcase museum…some people are interested in the flora and fauna, natural vistas, local customs, artisans, and local small town opportunities, which we took on our own (food market, street food, churches, etc. ) not just Inka … Christian did an okay job from our experience in many countries taking private tours.
