What people love about Peru Tours in December
- 7 Day Andean Experience Through the Living Culture of the Incas
This tour was absolutely amazing! If you are interested in learning about culture and history while in Peru this is 100% the tour you need to book. Edgar was very in-depth and knowledgeable, but made every day unique and personable. You could tell that he loves sharing his stories with the groups and made a real effort to get to know me as an individual and make the trip personable. I was (surprisingly) the only one on my tour, and while it was a little shocking at first, it made for an incredible experience; I’m sure it would have been great no matter who the guide, but with Edgar I felt like family.
- 7 Day Inca Jungle Adventure To Machu Picchu with Mountain Bike, Rafting, Zip Line and Trek.
Our tour was more fun than expected if that could be possible, included activities suited our wide age group and optional extra activities were also a lot of fun. Franco always made sure that our group was having fun and engaged.
- WONDERS OF PERU - 9 DAYS – CUSCO & PUNO
"I took the 09 DAYS WONDERS OF PERU – Machu Picchu- Rainbow Mountain & Titicaca Lake tour with our friends and my husband and I. We worked with Lucero at Waman Adventures. If there was a rating above Excellent I would happily give it. Lucero and everyone on the Waman team were truly exceptional. They were professional, friendly, efficient and if they could think of a way to go ""above and beyone"" they would do it with a smile. Everyone in our group had the best trip ever! I wish I could think of a comment that would give them an opportunity to improve, but they were just so good that I can't. We all fell in love with Peru because of the big hearts of our Waman team. When you travel you hope that the experience lets you have experiences that truly change your heart. I would instantly recommend Tour Radar because of Waman adventures. Many thanks for all your kindness."
