Most Memorable Moment?: Arriving at Machu Pichu - seen the photographs could not believe actually there.

CM, Bradford-on-avon

Highlight?: Too many to mention but the Condors and Machu Picchu were spectacular.

GB, Westerham

Highlight: Machu Picchu - truly breath taking.

PT, Swindon

Seeing the Condor being released back into the wild.

JA, Glasgow

Highilght: Watching condors rise on the thermals in Sondondo.

RE, London

Highlights: That's hard.., so many... for Alex: inca trail, for us: condors, lake titicaca, huchuy qosqo, ruins around cusco, colca canyon riding, chinchero market, moray & maras, macchu Picchu /  inkaterra.  We loved it all.

CB, Sandwich

Most memorable experience: “The jungle was fantastic and being alone in Lake Titicaca as well.” 

SD, South Ealing

"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

The Inca Trail with the 3 day camping has to be the most memorable part.  It was an extraordinary adventure - tough, exhilarating, stunning and as a family with grown up children an amazing challenge to do as a group of 5. We all loved Peru and our holiday.  Peru surprised us.  It blew our minds.  The country is stunning, the people charming, the history fascinating and the food absolutely delicious.  We look forward to returning and maybe trying the Salcantay trek!  We will definitely want to return to El Tambo for more chill time!

GC, 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

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 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,

Most Memorable Moments?: Seeing a forest of Puyas de Raimondi near Huarez The trek from Ascobamba to Pillcocancha particularly the hospitality of the campesinos and watching cows being milked by hand. The visit to Tarmatambo visiting the ruins and being approached by a small boy called Kevin who persuaded his mother to give us lunch. Having a small face carved for me at Molinos near Jauja by a woodcarver. He wouldn't take any money.

RM, London

Highlight?: Machu Picchu

RN, London

I really liked variety on this trip - amazing culture, history, nature all in one trip. Machu Picchu tour was great, excursions in rainforest were very memorable.

I had a fantastic trip in Peru, meeting friendly people and seeing some wonderful sites. All the agents in Peru were prompt and very helpful. 

KU, Crouch Hill

A fantastic travel company for Peru. Highly respected locally. The whole Itinerary was flawless with extremely professional local reps in Peru. I believe the Inca trail company in Cusco to be the best there!

JD, Swansea

“The range of experiences was like an assault course on the senses. The geography, the cultural diversity, the wildlife, the colours.” 

RC, Ealing

Everything was fantastic. We had a great holiday that we will remember for years to come.  

CLA,

"The people, mixing with the Peruvian people in the markets, talking and laughing with them."

JL, Cobham

Highlight?: Seeing Machu Picchu for the first time, it literally took my breather away, Ineven had tears in my eyes it is so stunning.

CE, Rickmansworth

Highlight?: Probably the condors at Colca Canyon.

PT

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

SF, Woking

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

Most memorable experience: “Probably visiting the islands on Lake Titicaca followed closely by HB train and Machu Picchu"

TS, Birmingham

Highlight?: The train journey to M Picchu and seeing M Picchu - absolutely awesome and I got a seat on the left of the train (for best views!). The tour of the Salt Flats and journey to San Pedro were stunning too. Really good tour guide during this part. Hannah at JLA was a great help before and during the holiday. She made it possible to visit on the desired dates (e.g. so I could go on a star gazing tour in San Pedro during a change in mood cycle). Always replied promptly to my emails. Especially appreciated little extras - e.g. being on the left of the train to M. Picchu for the best views, being allocated window seats on planes, etc. All this meant I could really enjoy the scenary. Stand out hotels were in Urubamba, M. Picchu, and Uyuni - all exceeding my expectations. I didn't realise so many lunches / dinners were included which was a great bonus. 

MP, Amersham

"All of it was memorable in different ways as the culture is so different. We found the Peruvian people helpful and cheerful. We enjoyed Arequipa, the Colca Canyon and Lake Titicaca, along with all of the trips and transfers."

GH, Keighley

Highlight: Being able to recreate photographs at Sasqaywaman above Cusco of our relatives who came to live in Peru in 1910. 

CC, Bristol

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

ME, Maidstone

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