What people love about Peru Tours in October
- Machu Picchu Adventure
Great value for money!
- The Inca Journey
The itinerary for this trip, and clarity of communication from GAdventures was superior. As were our guides! What you get for your money is really good for this trip. That said -- you get what you pay for with accommodations. They were all fine, some a bit noisy, some had crumby towels or showers.... but if you want what you'd consider by American standards "nice lodging," you will have to pay for a little more costly trip. Again, just want to reiterate, this trip is a great value and adventure of a lifetime!
- Southern Treasures - 8 Days
The trip was fantastic and I will definitely continue to recommend Tourradar to friends. This tour tended to be a lot more physical than expected for a tour open to 70 year olds. As a 32 year old, I didn't expect the altitude to effect me as much as it did. Grateful for our guide Jonathan who was so sweet and made sure we all took our time and didn't rush. Sure it would have been much worse if any of us pushed ourselves to do too much and ended up passing out. I really enjoyed the itinerary. Wish there was more time to include Saqsayhuaman in the itinerary, especially since we stayed right below it. Included food was delicious.
