What people love about Peru Tours in December
Moshe & Milla The service during the Inca Jungle Trail was truly extraordinary. Everything was well organized from the moment we arrived in Cusco till we departed from the airport. Our tour guide, Guido was spectacular. He explained the schedule in detail and showed great concerns for our safety. He made sure to create a structure with punctuality, yet he thought to make it as comfortable for us as possible. Guido conveys information through illustrations, activities and a lot of humor which made the whole experience worth remembering. An important asset in a tour guide is the art of patience. Guido has lots of it! During every hardship and struggle we faced, he always kept calm and positive. Not to mention, he’s a great photographer! We definitely had an unforgettable experience.

- 10 Day Andean Highlights "Machu Picchu & Puno" with Local Flights
Our 10 day tour was the highlight of our 2 months in South America. Our comments are as follows: * Ronald and Guido were exceptional guides and caring men. Nothing was too much trouble, took care of every detail, and could answer most of our questions about culture, structures and the environment. The were very pleasant always concerned for our welfare. In the high altitudes were we struggled the were very patient and often carried our bags. They obviously loved their country and being a guide - this was contagious to us. Thanks so much guys. * Hotels were all adequate and comfortable with good breakfasts. * Transfer were always on time, drivers pleasant and helpful. * Flights were good. * Organisation great, even with an unexpected change of guides. * The Homestay was really special, comfortable, grand views and lovely hosts. * We struggled with the highest altitudes, but managed with the guides support. Big thank you to Inkayni tours for showing us Peru. David & Jacoba Hinton
