    I want to thank Tourradar and their agent Lima Tours for a great trip. Because of Covid, I was the only person on the tour. The guides were great. Lima Tours kept in contact through WhatsApp Any problem that arose was dealt with efficiently. Peru,s economy has been devastated by Covid. There are stringent Covid mandates in place. If you’re able, please tip generously.

      TravelerWritten December 2023

      I have tried to select a triple room and able to select 2 adults but it does not give me an option to also select one child into the room. For pull down of the triple rooms. I can only select up to two adults. For pre or post stay hotels in Lima or Cusco, I can see that there are options to select child into the triple rooms as well as the adults. Can u tell me how can I select it?
