Anmol Grover | Traveled in July
One of the most unforgettable trips of my life. The Salkantay trek was breathtaking — snow-capped peaks, changing landscapes, and finally arriving at Machu Picchu made every step worth it. Alpaca Expedition handled every detail, from camping to meals, so we could just enjoy the journey.
Larry G. | Traveled in June
This was one of our best vacation/trips. Insight Vacations did an excellent job with our itinerary and the amount of places we visited and things we did. Really saw a lot of the cultural that we would have missed as just a tourist on our own. Hotels and food were the best. Bring a 220V converter for the room and a phone charging cord with a USB end as that was what is available on most busses and train.
David | Traveled in June
Arturo was an amazing guide. Knowledge was exceptional and very helpful especially when some guests felt unwell. His patience and sense of humour also added to a first class trip,

Cherrylyn O. | Traveled in June
I had a wonderful adventure in Peru . Our lovely group saw interesting and exciting things every day. The food and accommodation were excellent and the transport was spacious and comfortable. The experience was greatly enhanced by the humour and patience of our excellent tour leader Julio Cezar Yabar - we all appreciated his hard work and professionalism. A highlight for me was seeing condors in Colca Canyon. Thank you Explore . I will travel with you again
Daniel | Traveled in June
Nilton, our Tour Leader in Peru was Excellent! He was always very organized but always very understanding and accommodating to the Group. Juan, our Tour Leader in Quito was Excellent! However, Juan had a hard time with all the variables associated with going to the Galapagos Islands, starting with Avianca Airlines, the always changing weather, and the restrictions from the Galapagos Rangers. We had 5 Galapagos Experts during our 5 days on the Galapagos Islands but 2 of them really stood out and were Wonderful! Shout out to Diana and Mayari!!!
