Back in 1989, two guys from Melbourne, Australia by the names of Darrell and Manch set off on an adventure to the other side of the world. They travelled to Africa and without air conditioning on their modified truck, they filled it with supplies, some beer, a bunch of aviator sunglasses, and...

- MBMalcolm· May 24th, 2023The first few days were a little hectic and some of the included visits were rushed or on one occasion missed out. The Inca trail section was well organized though I found tough going. The jungle part was very disappointing, accommodation and facilities were great however no animals seen or heard, few birds.Show moreTrip date: April 2023
- RMRose· October 23rd, 2019This tour was truly an adventure of a lifetime. I decided to write my review broken down by topics. Booking the tour. I booked this tour online through TourRadar. I was very impressed with how quickly and efficiently TourRadar would reply to me on any questions or issues I had. The staff I talked to were always friendly and enthusiastic to help. Altitude Sickness I brought Diamox for the trip. Our Tour leader explained to us that we really don’t need to take altitude pills. Just keep hydrated with water and electrolytes and take it easy, act like a sloth. If someone does feel ill, there is oxygen and medication available. After I took 2 Diamox pills, I vomited and had diarrhea. The medication may or may not have caused these sympotoms. I decided to stop taking the medication. I felt nausea when we hiking Colca Canyon. After that, my body adjusted and I was fine for the rest of the trip. Homestays We had 2 homestays and 1 visit to a local community that produced textiles The homestays were 1 of my favourite activities on this trip. My only criticism with the Colca Canyon homestay was that we were not given time in advance of the visit to purchase gifts for our host families. I already brought a few markers, stickers, and small toys from Canada. However, I felt this wasn't enough since it is recommended to spend $30 soles($13 cdn) dollars. For our Lake Titicaca Homestay, we did go to a supermarket and buy gifts ahead of the visit. At the homestays, we dressed in the local garments and ate a delicious homecooked meal. Excursions I won't comment on the entire itinerary, but highlight some of the pros and cons of some of the activities. Nazca lines: Intrepid deals with a local airline that is considered safe and reliable. Some people vomited on the half hour plane ride. It is very difficult to take pictures in the plane since it is hard to focus and hold your camera steady. Saint Francisco Monastery: We went to this place during our free time in Lima. I regret going to this since I didn’t realize what I was going to see. Underneath the building are tombs with the remains of 25000 people. In one display, there was a skull in the center with femur bones laid around it in a circle. I just felt it was disrespectful. Machu Picchu: We took the 7 am bus up to Machu Picchu. There was no line up to get in. It is truly a beautiful and mystical place to visit. However, I thought there were too many of us tourists walking around that took away some of the magic. Some of the paths are narrow and steep and there isn't a railing. This isn't a problem if everyone is walking in the same direction. Quite often, I was passing tourists going in the opposite direction or tourists are stopping on the path to take pictures or just standing on the path and you must walk around them. Toilet Paper Yes, I actually devoted a paragraph to this topic. Please remember to pack toilet paper. Most of the hotels we stayed at only had 1 roll in the room. If you run out, it's good to have your own supply as backup. I was surprised that the Amazon Lodge had 2 extra rolls in the room. Some of the museums didn’t supply toilet paper. Alpaca- We went to a factor outlet. As we sipped on tea, the ladies explained how to tell real Alpaca vs the fake stuff. Real Alpaca is cool to the touch. The fake stuff is rough on the inside. I think the Baby Alpaca sweaters are super soft, but can be quite thin and not that warm. If you are looking for a sweater with a unique design that you don’t see at home, then it is worth buying a Baby Alpaca. I don’t think the factory outle had the best prices. Retail stores selling authentic Alpaca will have a certifed Alpaca. sign. I found a store in Lima that had a clearance sale on Alpaca scarves. regular 179 soles for 99 soles about $40 cdn. Summary We were on the go everyday. But, you need to keep moving if you want to see as much as you can in 21 days. Some places I would have liked to stay an extra day. Overall, it was a great experince. We met some great friends among our group of 13. Hopefully, we can keep in touch and meet up with our fellow travellers again someday. Last, but not least, I want to give a big shout out to Giscard. He is the best tour guide on this planet!!! Giscard is organized, smart, caring, thoughtful..... ....Show moreTrip date: May 2019

- AJoseph G· September 18th, 2019The trip was amazing but few things that it could improve is putting more flight for the long bus journeys where it could save us time and better experience.
