Reviewed By JClaudia - Fort Lauderdale, United States

Doing the Inca Trail had been on my bucket list for a while. My husband, myself and our 3 boys plus friends, a family of 7 (11 in total), had the great fortune of having a friend suggest Terra Explorer to help us with this trip. Valerie helped both our families organize an amazing experience which included a visit to a local community, kayak expedition, 4 days on the Inca Trail, visit to Machu Picchu, Pisac, river rafting and tours in Cuzco. Terra Explorer exceeded our expectations! We had 2 dedicated guides, Jose and Elias who stayed with us for the 11 days we were there. They were knowledgeable, super attentive and made our trip the more interesting and pleasant. Terra Explorer was very organized, the communications with Valerie were always prompt and efficient, the whole team that helped us was amazing, they thought of anything that could make this a wonderful experience. Of course we recommend our wonderful guides Jose and Elias. And we would (and have already) recommended Terra Explorer for people that want an unforgettable experience in Peru. Thank you Terra Explorer!

Canon de Cotahuasi

Reviewed By manuelsX9388EC

Hi there, I've just been in the Cotahuasi canyon for 1 week and would highly recommend it if you want to experience spectacular nature, Peru´s countryside locals and thermal baths. I couldn't find much info online, so here is some useful info: - 3 bus companies leave from the Arequipa bus terminal at 7pm and arrive in Cotahuasi at 4am and Alca at 4.30am - the thermal baths (4 Soles) in Luicho are open at that time and so they are a good place to start your Cotahuasi holiday. Luicho is between Cotahuasi and Alca, so just ask the bus driver to drop you off at Luicho - I stayed in hostels in Alca and Cotahuasi which are both good places to stay at. Alca has a much colder microclimate, so bring warm clothes (the other places had very pleasant temperatures in early October). From both places you can do nice day hikes or take buses/combis to places. From Alca, I hiked up to Ayahuasi (20km return) - an interesting and remote mountain village. - For a roundtrip, I would recommend you to take a 3pm bus from Cotahuasi to Charcana. From there you can hike up to some nice mountain cliffs with spectacular views at 4300m altitude (around 20km return, first part is a nice road then hiking path is not on Maps.me) and may see some condors. From Charcana, hike down to Quechualla (20km, 1500m descend) and stay at the hostel of Janet and Ramiro, a lovely farmer couple. I spent a few days with them and joined them to their vineyards and for net fishing - although I was useless haha. - From Quechualla hike back to Cotahuasi (33km, approx 900m ascend) and visit a cactus forest and the Sipia waterfalls on the way. If you want to hike less, you could easily take the 8am bus and ask to be dropped of midway. I actually did the round trip the other way around but then you have to ascend the 1500m from Quechualla to Charcana, which was a tiring. - To get back take a 5pm or 7pm bus back to Arequipa which should arrive 10h later. In my case it took only 8h and thus I arrived inconveniently in the middle of the night. - I also had to wait in Cotahuasi all day for the 7pm bus. In the morning the mirador is open where you can chill out. Or every hour you could take a bus from the Cotahuasi main plaza to the Luicho thermal baths (on the way to Alca). I bet there is much more to do in the canyon and there is much more to come. They are investing a lot into infrastructure at the moment. Ramiro from Quechualla told me that they have only had electricity for the last 1.5 years and a road for 2 years.
