La Mansion Casa

Highlight?: The whole of the Ausangate trek - the best short trek we have ever done in terms of scenery and local culture with the added advantage of comfortable mountain lodges. 

AST, Berwick-Upon-Tweed

Highlights? :The Vistadome train journey to Machu Picchu and visiting the ruins themselves.

ME, Maidstone

Most memorable experience: "Impossible to pick! Machu Picchu, the floating Uros Islands, the Nazca Lines, and seeing the condors were all incredible experiences that we will never forget."

KF, Reading

Amazing

"It is difficult to pick out just one experience from such a plethora of new ones. There was so much to see and absorb in Peru which was fascinating, but Machu Picchu must rate very highly in our list of memorable events on the mainland as must the whole Colca Canyon experience including the drives through the Highlands to Chivay."

ND,

We love Peru and the people every time we go back it is a memorable experience.

Most Memorable Moment?: One day hike to Sun Gate/Macchu Picchu

SF, Woking

“The most enjoyable… Having chocolate pancakes in the narrow cobbled streets of Cusco. And in the mountain village of Aguas Calientas. And in lots of other places. The kids having fun with the cats at the cat park of Lima. Meeting a mountain family and finding out about their way of life. This included meeting their guinea pigs – kept purely for their meat.” 

LBM, South Africa

Most Memorable Moment?: Machu Pichu probably the best experience but the train journey there was amazing (and unexpectedly so).  

TA, Edinburgh

Colca canyon really exceeded expectations and we hadn't been aware of this destination prior to arranging the trip.

JA, Staines-upon-thames

Peru is one of those countries that becomes memorable on so many levels. Each place I visited made my heart miss a beat I simply loved it all( I also loved my visit to the taquile and eat with the local people, the food was amazing and people simply beautiful.)

DC, London

Most memorable experience: “Colca Canyon, Floating Islands on Lake Titicaca, Machu Picchu without doubt. The journey from Ingapirca to Cuenca was very beautiful.” 

CR, Truro

Highilght: Watching condors rise on the thermals in Sondondo.

RE, London

We were impressed by everything we saw, however the visit to Machu Picchu and the islands on Lake Titicaca were the most memorable  The former is an iconic site and the guide, Freddie was excellent. The islands on the lake were fascinating the local people were very welcoming and our guide Willi was brilliant.  

LS, Ruislip

"Obviously Machu Pichu was a highlight but Ollaytaytambo was impressive, Chinchero was lovely and Cusco was fantastic [we're looking into buying a house there!] the Vistadome, particularly with the staff on the return journey to Cusco, who put on a fashion show, music and dancing for us, which they genuinely seemed to enjoy too, was fantastic. I'd also really recommend Huaco Pacllano in Lima - I'd never seen a site like it before."

SAG, Hythe

"It was the overall experience that was important and I keep finding myself recalling small details that were entrancing at the time and then got lost in the next bout of sensory overload. In the end, I'd say it was the fact that I was able to speak almost nothing but Spanish for the duration of my trip that gave and gives me the greatest pleasure. Partly this is satisfaction that I adapted my Castillian Spanish so well to Peru. More importantly, I know that I got much more out of my guided tours because my guides were able to convey subtleties in their own language that would have got lost in translation. This is one of the key pluses of the 'tailor made' model. Having mainly private tours and excursions meant that I rarely had to compromise on this, for me, key aspect of the experience."

DM, Nottingham

Highlights?: White water rafting on the Urabamba river, Pirahna fishing and the lake titicaca tour.

MH, London

Highlight: Reaching the sun gate mid/late afternoon to see Machu Picchu bathed in sunshine.

RK, Worcester

Most Memorable Moment?: Perhaps looking down on Machu Pichu for the first time, or was it the ceviche for lunch as part of the buffet in the Sacred Valley, or maybe Buenos Aires( a mixture of New York side walks and Parisian Boulevards )or the tranquillity of the gardens @ L'Auberge Hotel. and not forgetting the splendour of the Basilica at Cusco

AD, Cheltenham

For me, I think that it was the Lords of Sipan and Royal Tombs Museum, and the Temple of the Moon at Trujillo. For Angela, it was Tucume and the Temple of the Moon.

PS, Reading

Most Memorable Moment?: The train from Cusco to Puno ... Best day by far. Plenty of time to relax and hang out with the family in very comfortable surroundings, fantastic views all they way.  Also loved Lake Titicaca ... Again a great day.

Highlights:- It is difficult to pick out just one experience from such a plethora of new ones.  There was so much to see and absorb in Peru which was fascinating but Machu Picchu must rate very highly in our list of memorable events on the mainland as must the whole Colca Canyon experience including the drives through the Highlands to Chivay.

ND, Lewes

It was all good and every location was special so cannot choose one in particular.

BC, Beckenham

The whole holiday was memorable and the flow and way it had been planned was excellent - we had a build up that allowed us to visit other parts of Peru, acclimatise and take in the history, culture and natural scenery before capping it off with the Inca trail and Machu Picchu! 

AB, Reading

Most Memorable Moment?: Cusco - such a great atmosphere with so much history.

MH, Manchester

It was memorable because of the cultural and geographical variety so can't pick out particular part.    We were in 3 different climates, in mountains, jungle and coast.  Probably enjoyed the places where we had most interactions with nature i.e. Lake Titicaca and jungle.

SL,

"The aim was always to get to Machu Pichu and we did it in style all the way. MP was everything we expected. Cusco, Sacred Valley and Machu Pichu hotel all fab as was the Hiram Bingham train ride back to Cusco."

JE, London

We really enjoyed the whole trip and found the Peruvian people very friendly and helpful and determined to better themselves and their country.

SJ, Cambridge

Seeing the Condor being released back into the wild.

JA, Glasgow

The Peru holiday was all very well constructed. Favourite parts were the floating islands, the nocturnal canoe trip and the trek to Macchu Picchu. Organisation was brilliant and it all hung together very well. Thanks!

AMW, Letchworth

"We were so thrilled to have the 3 nights in Cusco - a) we all LOVED La Casona so much (the amazing bathrooms, the fireplaces (lit) in the bedrooms, the staff, the ambience, etc, and b) we SO enjoyed all the amazing restaurants in Cusco (we are food and wine lovers, so had a great time!). Machu Picchu was absolutely AMAZING too - something to remember forever. We did love Hotel B in Lima too, but of course we were jet-lagged and only there for 1 night....We had an amazing time in Peru - the highlight being Machu Picchu. I would strongly suggest that people should stay at the Sanctuary Lodge at the site to get the best from the experience. We loved Peru - and really loved Cusco."
