Thank you for an incredible trip in Peru. My son I I were lucky to be the only participants on the Inca Trail with our awesome guide Andres and our 8 porters. We felt like VIPs as we were provided 3 course meals and our tents set up for us after a long hard day of trekking. The views on the trail were amazing and the ruins were fantastic to explore and learn about. Andres' knowledge and experience is vast and he shared his country and culture with us. While the trekking was challenging, the views and landscape such as the cloud forest made it worthwhile and spectacular. Arriving at Machu Picchu was the experience of a lifetime. We were graced with fine but cold weather. World Expeditions enabled everything to work seamlessly from being met each day by someone, to the tours of the Sacred Valley. I highly recommend this trip to Peru.

Perfection. I have nothing to complain about. And it was truly the trip of a lifetime. I’ve wanted to visit Peru since I was 3 years old watching Jacque Cousteau (I’m 59 now) and it was every bit as magical, intriguing, awe inspiring, and beautiful as I had hoped.

The Journey to Macchu Picchu with National Geographic and G Adventures was so much more than I bargained for. Not only did we see and explore Macchu Picchu, but in the days leading up to the "Big Mountain' we learned so much about the Incan culture and practices from the visits to other lesser-known archeological and cultural sites, that by the time we arrived at the UNESCO World Heritage, Macchu Picchu, I felt that I actually understood this extraordinary site and its significance to the Incan people.

I contracted the tour to Peru with a travel agency in Mexico, so I cannot comment on prices. What I can comment on is the excellent service of Lima Tours. In all the tours they were punctual, dedicated and with very friendly and educated guides. We almost couldn't do the tour to the 7-color mountain because the day we had to do it, road closures were announced due to carrier blockades. The agency, through our guide MIGUEL ANGEL planned a "madruguete" (literal), they picked us up at 3 in the morning to avoid the blockades and be able to carry out the tour. I must mention that the visit to the mountain was the most anticipated of the entire trip for my wife, so it would have been frustrating if we hadn't made it. In addition, in Cusco I forgot some things at the hotel (including money) and Lima Tours, in coordination with the hotel, sent my forgotten objects to Lima. The Lima Tours agency is highly recommended.

I had a great time with Gadventures trip to Peru and Boliva. I highly recommend Gadventures, National Geographic small group trips. I believe these trips offer special insight into the local cultures.
