We had 2 nights in the Amazon at Amazona Posadas. We packed in a lot to very little time. The lodge was beautiful and very comfortable, food was excellent. Our guide was very good but seemed a bit disinterested at times. Very knowledgeable. We then went to Cusco, had a walking tour and cooking class. Our new guide, Albero was excellent. Our cooking class with Jesus was fun, very accommodating. We then moved on to the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu. Highly recommend the hike at MP Mountain. Our guide was very supportive and patient! Next we then went to the Rainbow Mountain. Unfortunately, though I requested we NOT go to Vinicunca, that is where we were taken. It was very beautiful, but very crowded. I did not understand why we did not go to Palcoyo. Was told later it was not accessible due to landslides. This may have been the case, but was unhappy about the lack of transparency prior to embarking. Overall, we were very happy with our experience and grateful to have completed it before the travel restrictions were set in place for the COVID pandemic.

Salinas salt lagoon is incredibly beautiful. I was there during the rainy season so it’s not white but instead a big mirror. Our guide Elli was super knowledgeable and could answer all our questions about the region and the lagoon itself. Since we were only two guests, the whole tour was super flexible and tailored to our wishes. I can highly recommend this tour - it’s worth every penny :-)

We LOVED this spot...it was the highlight of our trip and we are so glad that we did it! Highly recommend the experience! Our family did not do a guided tour so I can't speak to that. We were in our personal vehicle and drove from Huanuco to Huallay. The drive took about 3 hours and most of it was the Carretera Central, the heavily-trafficked 2-lane highway that links Lima to the jungle side of Peru. We went up to 14366 feet but dropped back down to about 13500ish when we got to Huallay. Huallay is a national park with an exorbitant s/2 (about 75 cents) entrance fee,. There is parking next to the entrance. You can also request a guide for the hikes that they offer...one is a 3-hour route and the other is 5 hours. Our group preferred to just take off on our own...the route is marked fairly clearly and honestly there is a lot of just open plain so it's not hard to get your bearings and head back to the entrance. It was about 40 degrees, I think...our jungle crew was not well equipped--we were in layers with a fleece, tennis shoes, and wool hats and gloves purchased in Huanuco--but we were not too cold. The ground is marshy, so be prepared for damp feet. We also took in thermoses with hot water for mate de coca, as well as snacks. The park itself is amazing! Our kids had a fantastic time climbing and exploring and hiking. Thankfully no one got altitude sickness although we were all developing headaches by the time we left about 4 hours later. We are so very glad that we went!

My gf and I did the 2d/1n trek. The guide, David, was excellent. He had so much knowledge about the canyon and spoke perfect English. There are many interesting plants which are very poisonous so it’s good to have someone with you. Some do this as an unfixed tour but it was quite affordable to have a guide. We opted to book our accommodation separately from the group in Sagalle at the Oasis Paradiso Hotel so we could have a private bathroom. The hike was difficult but not insanely challenging. I actually found going down more difficult as my knees were really bothering me. You head back up in the morning and for us it was raining and dark and you haven’t eaten so you got to push through those first couple hours. It took us about 3 hours to get back up and there is an option to take a mule if you choose. We saw many doing that. A few things I found useful. First, trekking poles they really do help your knees going down as well as going up. Silicon protectors for your toes. I began to develop a couple hot spots on my toe on way down so put them on and worked great. Rain gear (if rainy season). It poured for the last hour of our downhill trek and got soaked. For those who have altitude issues, I took a half dose of altitude sickness medicine that picked up at pharmacy in Arequipa. I think it maybe helped as I didn’t seem to have any issues with the height. Overall this is an excellent trip the views are breathtaking. This will not disappoint.

Our tour guide, David, was absolutely brilliant and his knowledge, humour, friendliness and problem-solving skills are what made the tour such a success. He provided us with lots of fascinating commentary, made sure everyone's dietary requirements were met at the restaurants, ensured nobody felt left behind on the short hikes, and he was always happy to answer all our questions. He even sourced clean towels for our visit to the hot springs so that we didn't need to rent any. Worth every single penny we paid for this tour.

This day trip ist perfect to get out of the city for a while. It's just about an hours ride outside of Arequipa. We visited Yura Viejo first which ist very small but in a beautiful sourrounding. Then went on a hike through a small canyon to a waterfall. You have to wade through the water quite a bit which was a lot of fun for our six year old. He did not even ask once 'are we there yet' ;-) The waterfall is beautiful as is the landscape. Our guide was great and our driver very relaxed, too. The termal baths are ok, maybe not a must-do, but our son loved the warm water. Overall a great Tour.

Beautiful views during both days. We were lucky to enjoy the mountains in their full green glory during the summer rainy season without any rain. The hike, especially on its second day with a brutal uphill, is challenging, hence not recommended if you are completely out of shape or have issues with your knees. The accommodation for our overnight stay is pretty and the pool came as a nice surprise after a long hike in the first day. Our guide was Rafael. Very knowledgeable, friendly, professional, punctual and funny. 5 stars for Rafael.
