  Great tour, but unfortunately cut short because of COVID 19 pandemic. G Adventures staff members were extremely helpful in arranging accommodations and flights out of Peru for stranded American and Canadian tour guests. Many thanks for their extraordinary efforts!

  While I loved Peru, and Yur our guide was excellent, the accommodations were of poor quality in sketchy and often inconvenient locations.

  An excellent experience for my very first group tour. Rudy, our CEO, is very much informed and shared a lot about his country. He always go out of his way to help and guide all of us in the group. He is very much patient to everyone. Kudos GAdventures and NatGeo for a very well organised and efficient itinerary! One for the books experience indeed!

  The tour did what we wanted but there were too many bus rides meaning we lost two full days. We had a coo but he was there just to heard onto a bus, we had guides at each stop which we then had to tip on top. Meaning the cost went up and we had little flexibility.

  The hotels were average, for me the worst one was the hotel in Cusco (this hotel has 2 type of rooms - the updates ones are nice, the non updated rooms are really below average). For this type of tour I would have prefer to take a flight from Cusco to Puno, instead of spending over 9 hrs in the bus. Also, i would have preferred an earlier flight from Puno to Lima. Getting back to Lima after 4.00 PM was a little late.

  Jubar was our CEO and he was an absolute delight, definitely a 5-star rating from me! He did all he could to make our days work well and to help everyone with any big or small issues that cropped up. He really did treat us like we were his family. I knew we were going to cover a lot of ground, but the 2 long days in the bus were hard to take in such huge chunks of time. I'm not sure how else we could've gotten from A to B, but perhaps if there were music played, or some kind of option to stop a little more frequently for a photo or 2 (not just "El Bano" stops) it might have made the days pass more pleasantly? Also, having paid upfront, in full, for the tour, all of the "nickel and diming" every single day for every single extra person (driver/guide/porter etc., etc., etc.) really wore most of us out, embarrassed a lot of us, frustrated a lot of us, as most of us never seemed to have enough sole to cover all these extras that we felt were NOT optional (what other way could you feel when envelopes kept being passed around into which your portion was to be placed?), so my suggestion here is to (1) either see that these people are paid a bit more by charging a bit more for the tours upfront (2) Collect a one time fee at the beginning of the tour, and have the amount stated in the tour information and then never mentioned again or (3) stop this practice altogether and leave it entirely up to each individual IF they felt that a person deserved a tip or not. Now, the sites seen and the places we visited were absolutely spectacular and they all receive a f-star rating from me. I am more than happy to have made this, my first time "South of The Border" to Peru. Machu Picchu shall remain one special place to me. Thank God the Spanish never found this magical place and destroyed it! The Nazca Lines are a wonderful mystery to contemplate and Lake Titicaca, although our particular visit didn't go entirely to plan, I found surprising for its sheer size. I am unsure how much longer the Uros people are going to be willing to continue their rather harsh life "just so us tourists can take photos", as I would hate to think of them being "stuck" there as a Disneyland exhibit. But I found them lovely and kind and funny. In fact, I found the people of Peru to be very warm and loving in general, and very optimistic and forward thinking about their future.And the children are to-die-for cute! As far as the included food: breakfast, by nature, is a limited meal to have a huge variety presented, but by trip's end, I vowed it would be awhile before I ate ham again! Also, a little more time would've been nice to have to eat, rather than gulp and go, as many times a bare 1/2 hour between the time the places opened and the time we had to leave was the window of eating opportunity. Also, really, would it have been so bad to have organized a farewell dinner to be included at tour's end? It felt, after spending 14 days together, that it all just fizzled out once we returned to Lima.

  The itinerary was excellent and we very much enjoyed the changes of location. The pace was good and we were able to get enough rest to continue every day. The guide was excellent and without his help in various situations we would have been at a loss. Additionally, he was always happy!

  The contents of the itinerary was good, but some parts need to be changed due to a strike happening during our trip in Peru. Also, a dinner originally included in the description was not provided on the trip. The tour members were great, and we had a lot of fun.
