This tour is the best deal - includes all the fees, and transfer to/from the hotel in Miraflores made it super convenient. Got to see all the various birds, Humboldt penguins, and of course, seeing, and hearing, the sea lions up close in their natural habitat was spectacular.

My friend and I had a great experience with Sam. The day started off with getting picked up at the bus station. The car we drove in was very nice and comfortable, the air-conditioning kept the car at a cool temperature. Sam was very informative throughout the drive. The Tacama vineyard was absolutely beautiful and breathtaking. The tour was nice and thoughtfully planned out. The next destination was good as well. Lunch was included and it was delicious (but you will have to pay for the drinks you order). The Dune buggy through the desert and Sand boarding was the best part of our day. It was a great experience and quite the adventure. Highly recommended!!

I worked with Huacachina Tours to set up the perfect bachelor/bachelorette experience for my best friend, her future husband, and 20 of our closest friends. From start to finish the experience was incredible! We booked the Ica pisco and wine tasting, followed by the dune buggy and sandboarding experience, as well as private glamping for the night. They set up a lunch spot, prepared dinner at our campsite, and took us to breakfast and the food at all 3 locations was great! We were very pleased with everything. Everyone from the Huacachina Tours team was so kind, helpful, and really went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. We had an amazing time and we're all blown away with how much fun we had and how well everything was set up. I highly recommend this company!

The Huacachina desert is very large and its dunes are really huge, can you imagine sliding down them at full speed? We do not have to imagine why we live it, the experience is really fascinating. I was able to hire one of these bikes to drive myself and a guide bike was pending my safety, it was really incredible.

All was perfect. Nazca lines were from other world, I can't believe that the people of that time have been able to make tremendous drawings on the ground without having to see them from the sky, I was totally impressed. Thank you Andy for teaching us all this, we are very happy, we have known Nazca hahaha, a dream for a long time ...

We had a great trip to Machu Picchu booked with Cusco Unique Experience. It was a private tour, which I highly recommend for this important site. Karina and Brian worked with us to plan the perfect trip for us. They are flexible and will plan the trip that you want. Prior to the trip they sent the itinerary so we knew what we were going to do. We were met at the airport, even though out flight was very late, and driven to our hotel in the sacred valley that used to be a hacienda. Our guide for the sacred valley and Cusco was Rina, and we felt we saw and learned so much about the Incas. Our guide for Machu Picchu was Alex. He met with us the night before we were going to Machu to tell us what to bring, what not to bring, and what to expect. He met us at our hotel on Machu Picchu morning to walk to the bus with us. He explained so much about the Incas and Machu Pichu. He helped us with our photos and suggested good places to take photos. It was so great to have a private tour. We spent two more days touring with Rina ending in Cusco. We were offered one more activity to end our tour and we chose a cooking class. That was a riot because the chef spoke Spanish but the restaurant provided a someone to translate for us. The food was delicious. Our driver picked us up at 4:30AM for our vert early flight to Santiago, Chile. Overall, it was a wonderful trip. We loved Peru and we were totally satisfied with Cusco Unique Experience.
