2-day Puno to Arequipa Colca Canyon tour with condor spotting, Lagunillas wildlife stops, Chivay hot springs, and 1 night in town.
“Très belle excusion, beaux paysages. La baignade dans les bains thermaux était également très bien. Le cout des repas n'ėtait parfois pas inclus et les boissons facturées très chères. La qualité des repas proposés ètait très moyenne. Le minibus utilisé pour l'excursion etait complet, c'était compliqué de ranger les valises et paquetages. Il aurait fallu un bus plus grand. Inconvénients compensés par la beauté du site et la chance de voir quelques condors. Mark.”

A 4-hour Cusco night tour with legends, viewpoints, and a real Pisco sour, guided in English or Spanish, for first-time city orientation.
“Our tour guide was very fun and knowledgeable about the city of Cusco. Took us to an awesome restaurant for a 3 course meal and we saw a live band and dancers during dinner. We did some walking around Cusco but our tour guide went very slow so it could be relaxing. A lot of the tour guides in Cusco are very nice, funny and can speak really good English.”
Cusco night tour with San Pedro Market bites, Inca astronomy at Planetarium Cusco, Pollo a la Brasa dinner, and a pisco sour.

A 4-hour Cusco night walk with Pisco Sour lessons and a traditional dinner, including hotel pickup, small group size, and great city views.
“We did this our first night in Cusco and our guide was Jose. He was amazing! He took us to the Pisco Museum where we got to go behind the bar and made our own Pisco Sours. Jose is so knowledgable about Cusco and the history of the Inka civilization. He was so gracious and he offered us advice on the rest of our trip including our trek to Machu Picchu. If you go to Cusco you should definitely take a tour with Jose you will learn and see a lot of this amazing city. We would definitely go back and do another excursion with Jose and this company.”

“The tour was great! We managed to spot various bits of wildlife, including Tarantulas, Night Monkeys, a Sloth, a Caiman, frogs, and various insects. Our guide's humour and knowledge was fantastic, giving us lots of information as we were walking and happy to answer any questions we had. I'd highly recommend this tour for anyone in the area!”
Small-group train tour linking the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, with guided ruins, Pisac market shopping, Moray and Maras salt, and sunrise entry.
“Although i'm sure we could have paid less, it was well worth go. Our guide, Herbert Vidal, was very knowledgeable and explained more the more we asked. We didn't worry about anything, just enjoyed the Inca monumentos and ruins. The trips were confortable and the only lateness was on the train to Machupichu. We Will recomend this trip to our friends. The one thing that could be better would be us chosing the time of the train to and from Machupichu”

Jesùs était à l’heure à notre hôtel, il parle bien français et nous a fait découvrir la faune et la flore de la jungle. Nous recommandons fortement cette excursion.”
