Lima Tours and Trips

This was an incredible trip and I highly recommend it to anyone. Shout out to our guide, Arturo, who went above and beyond to ensure we had the best possible trip. My particular highlights were Lake Titikaka and the Inca Trail. The itinerary was perfectly crafted - with the first week a bit slower to allow us to get to used to the altitude, and the second week the walking ramped up with the Inca Trail. It was the perfect itinerary that went at a good pace and allowed us to see lots of Peru in two weeks. Thank you!

Fast moving trip covering many Peru highlights. Excellent Guide (Renzo) kept us well informed, able to access elements of Peruvian culture which would have been difficult without him, and safe. Safe primarily with regard to altitude which is a significant consideration for this trip and most of it operates over 3000m and tops out at 4900ms.

My wife and I have just returned from our 'bucket list' trip 'Simply Peru' with Explore. It lived up to our expectations and then some! The iternary was what we would have hoped for with a few good surprises such as the two days on Lake Titicaca- especially Taquile Island, if a little on the 'cool' side, and Colca Valley and the Condors. Our main highlights were a flight over the Nazca Lines and, of course, Machu Picchu! We also did the Machu Picchu Mountain hike - another highlight. Cuzco is such a wonderful city with some great Inca heritage including Sacsaywaman. There were many, many more highlights not least of which was our tour leader, Erickson Arenas. Thank you Erickson for making this such a memorable holiday. I would recommend this trip to anyone without hesitation. This will take some beating!

I had a fabulous holiday with explore in Peru. We saw amazing places stayed in lovely hotels and had fabulous food.Arturo our tour leader was incredible- so informative and helpful, going the extra mile to ensure that we had the best holiday ever. I would definitely recommend this holiday it truly was amazing.

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.
