Had a fantastic tour to Palccoyo, what a hidden gem. So understated and hardly another person in sight! Loved that we could take our time and go at our own pace. Into Peru did a top job, picked up on time, food hit the spot and guide was excellent.

Shortly after booking the trip to Caral, I received a message from them asking if I would be willing to change the date of my trip to the day after. Even though I would be going to the airport later that evening, I agreed to change the date. WRONG MOVE. Because I changed the date, my trip advisor confirmation was now INACCURATE about the date of the event. Fast forward to a few days before the event was supposed to happen, I got seriously ill with food poisoning. To the point of considering a visit to the hospital. I emailed them (well before 24 hours as their policy states) to cancel my trip. I didn’t think it was wise to get on a bus and drive far away after having this experience. THEY DENIED MY REFUND. Even though, if you have the correct date and time on your trip advisor confirmation, you can cancel a trip yourself no problem - see photo. They are withholding my money. If you try to dispute it, they’ll say you agreed to the terms and conditions. Beware if they ask you to change the date cause you won’t get your money back if you need to cancel.

The tour was perfectly organized. The pick up was right on time and the vehicle was very comfortable. We visited 3 different markets and the tour guide Jonathan was very well informed. His spoken English is on a very good level so on top of a lovely day with delicious food I also learned a lot :) He was also very flexible so I booked directly after the first tour a visit to the Larco Museum. Thank you Jonathan!

6. Private Tour To Nazca Lines From Lima
Overall Ratings

Nasca Lines – The Sacred Landscape The lines are known as geoglyphs – drawings on the ground made by removing rocks and earth to create a “negative” image. The rocks which cover the desert have oxidized and weathered to a deep rust color, and when the top 12-15 inches of rock is removed, a light-colored, high contrasting sand is exposed. Because there’s so little rain, wind and erosion, the exposed designs have stayed largely intact for 500 to 2000 years. Scientists believe that the majority of lines were made by the Nasca people who flourished from around A.D. 1 to 700. Certain areas of the pampa look like a well-used chalk board, with lines overlapping other lines, and designs cut through with straight lines of both ancient and more modern origin.
Inclusions: 24-hour-support, All taxes, fees and handling charges, Private tour, Professional guide, Transport by private vehicle with A/C, 30 - 45 minutes Flight over the Nazca LineS

After a 10 day Traveling adventure with a group through another traveling group, my friend and I opted for a private tour of Rainbow Mountain! Unfortunately it snowed on the day we reserved our tour; however it was one of our most enjoyable days due to the kindness of our guide Richard. He was very informative regarding the history and culture of the area and people. We were able to see some beautiful sites on the way to and home. We met some local folks, stopped by a lovely place to eat Los Cabanas and have coffee. The food was awesome!! Richard took some beautiful photos and was patient with us when we wanted to stop to view some sights/alpacas!! The time with Cusco Holiday Peru Servicios Turisticos was one of our most favorite and memorable!! Thanks for such a wonderful time and adventure!!

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.

Just had an amazing morning with Lucas who led this tour just for me! We went to the swamp area as well as the seaside, where we must have seen 30 or 40 species of birds in total, pelicans, flamingos, herons, flycatcher and more. Lucas was very friendly and knowledgable. He had bird ID charts and bird call app but no binoculars. The visit was not far out of Lima and it was lovely too to be out of the hustle and bustle of the city.

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!
