Lima Tours and Trips

There are so many different experiences - from quaint museums and restaurants to ancient ruins, salt mines, educational tapestry excursions, and exotic wildlife. The Peruvian people are so kind and welcoming. The accommodations were top notch, every detail seen to by the program director... all we had to do was enjoy the experience.

I really enjoyed listening to the local guide who explained the history of Lima, Peru, and what they are doing to prepare for its 500th anniversary. Our local guide in the Cusco area was very interesting and enjoyable also. Seeing how the colors were made for weaving at the llama and alpaca farm was very interesting also. I enjoyed touring the Incan ruins... they were a lot more interesting than I had ever expected. The many varieties of Peruvian and Ecuadorian cuisine were very tasty. The hotel staff and the staff on our ship were all very accommodating.

The trip was amazing! The Tour Director “A.J.” was the BEST!!!! He handled all problems and all questions and had an unbelievable personality. A.J. Is a great asset of Insight Vacations. Hotels and food was fantastic! (Our time in Lima was unimpressive,…just a large, crowded and dirty city. Would have preferred more time in the Sacred Valley.)

Ita absolutely and totally doable for any age or mobility our guide Dante was above and beyond anything we could have wanted or needed his special touches and thoughtfulness was witnessed by the whole group, Jorge was great too and David the driver was wonderful and safe.

Awesome tour, getting to have dinner with locals on their farm and home. Excellent very organized and experienced guide and small group experience. We saw a seal nursing her young, penguins, iguanas, turtles , sea lions and birds in the Galapagos on enjoyable zodiac rides. Visited many islands.

An excellent tour with a fabulous group of fellow explorers who were great company, punctual and positive. Without doubt our tour leader Arturo went above and beyond to make this a lovely experience and shared his knowledge and passion for this beautiful country. Many highlights including our visit to Machu Picchu, which being later in the afternoon allowed us to experience the site at our leisure and without the crowds. Would absolutely recommend this tour.
