Travellers' reviews about Peru

My 15 year old son and I went to Peru. We did all the things he wanted and he and I were very satisfied.

Lima--> Arequipa--> Colca Canyon--> Puno--> Cusco--> Agua Calientes--> Puerto Maldonado Arequipa....simply delightful........monastery was unexpected and wonderful The mountains and volcanoes....just amazing...even the altitude! Colca Canyon.....condors...one of life's perfect moments Cusco....delightful city and so much to do. We could happily live there. Short Inca trail and Machupicchu....even better than I had imagined and we had high expectations. Puerto !Maldonado.......we are in love with the jungle.... Please don't let tour companies spoil it by turning the field stations into luxury hotels.

It was useful to start in Lima and build the altitude up during the trip. My itinerary gave me the chance to see modern and ancient Peru, coastal and jungle, rural and urban. Cusco is a beautiful city in a beautiful setting and of course Machu Picchu is stunning but the trip to the Ballestas Islands was well worth the trip to Paracas.

We had a wonderful time in Peru over the course of 6 days. It was a hastily arranged trip, but the team at Peruvian Sunrise were absolutely amazing. They took care of every single detail and met with us in almost every step of the way. We could not ask for any better service. We achieved all our objectives with this trip thanks to them.

Lima , Cusco & puno

Peru is amazing, but to have a great experience it's important to choose right. After long searching, we took the best decision to travel through Evaneos which really chose the best local agency in Peru: Fiorella's agency. Fiorella, our local agent helped us to design a very beautiful experience in Peru starting with Lima, then Rainforest (Inkaterra Hacienda Concepcion - Puerto Maldonado), Cusco, Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, Lake Titikaka. Since the first day, we only had very nice experiences wherever we went: hotels, transport, food, trips. It was a no worries trip where everybody took care of us so our only 'worry' being to enjoy Peru's beauty at maximum. We are thinking to return someday in Peru, and if so we will definitely choose the same travel agency.

Our trip started in Lima, where we spent a few days to sample the city culture visiting the historic centre and the tourist area of Mirafloris. We then caught a bus down to Paracas to spend a day on the beach in Paracas and then a speed boat trip to the fabulous Islas Bellestas. Then we flew to Puerto Maldonados to spend two nights in the rain forest at the Inkaterra Hiciendas Conception, truly beautiful place, wonderful guides and very atmospheric. Did not see as much wildlife as I expected in the jungle though. Then it was off to Machu Picchu via the scared valley, the scenery was unbelievable , and Machu Picchu lived up to all expectations. The last few days was in Cusco, but the altitude contributed to feeling very tired the last day! The Agency were our guides through out the trip, and it all ran like clockwork , they were excellent

exploration and sight seeing were top priorities including sand dunes, wine production, Amazonian rain forest, Machu Picchu, walking around the Inca capital of Cusco, volcano and condor country, Lake Titicaca, the salt flats and Siloli desert in Bolivia, and the world's most dangerous road bike descent.

we really enjoyed the holiday and everything was well organised and went like clock work. Very have happy with the responsivness of the agent and he sorted out a question of park entry fees while we were on holiday in a quick and efficient manner. I would recommend him to others.

Our trip was amazing. The local agency was very professional. They planned a great vacation for us. Hotels were perfect, tour guides were excellent as well as the car drivers. It was a completely stress free trip. Very happy to use Evaneos Travel.
