Everything fine except that the transport was somewhat awkward for the ride. They took us to a pisco cellar that didn't come on the itinerary.

Amazing trip since the tour started the tourist company and the guides were always very attentive.

The experience was spectacular and very fun as the guide was always very kind to us AND very didactic at the time of explaining the whole Tour there were spectacular views and very incredible crossings.

The guide in the canyon was the best!!

We visited the canyon with my girlfriend and we were really surprised by the large number of fossils and remains on the seabed. They are really worth the 02 hour trip, it is hot but it is pleasant. Sam and his entire team were very attentive at all times.

Sam Travel and colleagues to flee, or make sure to specify the type of vehicle for very very bumpy tracks

We were 4 , and we chose Sam Travel for its very positive reviews. This trip has been treated. The vehicles were full cattle farms. Impossible to rest his back on the row of 4 at the back because not enough space. everything started in ruins: window that does not close (dust in the face or on yourself) , the interior facings are unstuck, very important engine noises and rattling (we put the music to full to mask) , suspension non-existent, impossible to hear the guide (noise and no microphone) ....etc. Vehicles to make a 1/2 hour trip on paved road but no 4 hours of tracks or almost . . It was a real ordeal for a very small canyon. It was our 5th excursion and the only bad one. We had booked well in advance, it was possible to organize and notify us. Treating the tourist like this is scandalous.

Operator response

Fabienne, we regret your inconvenience. On the day of the excursion, our vehicle was unable to accommodate enough passengers to fill the van and we relied on our trusted collaborator. The road to Lost Canyon is a bit bumpy, there are dirt roads and asphalt road in excellent condition through the desert, 80% of the road is very good and 20% of the path is paved dirt road, so the sandy environment is understandable. The Canyon is really nice for many of our visitors, again we apologize for the inconvenience during the trip. We wish you a nice trip through Peru. Best regards, Sam =)
