Description

Let's immerse ourselves in it with all our senses; music, textiles, flavors, walks, admirable Andean nature, capricious volcanoes, fauna and flora, trying on typical costumes and much more. During our trip we enjoyed impressive natural settings, whether crossing part of the Salinas and Aguada Blanca National Park, observing the vicuñas, alpacas and llamas, admiring the colorful terraces combined with its mountains and gorges, or interacting with the local people of Colca. Let us not forget that we are in the "kingdom of the Condor"; So additionally we will have the privilege of observing the spectacular flight of the Andean condor between the walls of the Colca Valley canyon. PLACES TO VISIT: • Tocrapampa Wetlands • Patapampa Viewpoint • Town of Chivay • Chacapi Hot Springs • Town of Yanque • Cruz del Condor viewpoint. • Viewpoints of Wayrapunku, Antahuilque and • Maca town.

Super

Traveled with an international group of a total of 16 people to the Condors in the Andes mountains. A journey from 2500 meters above sea level to almost 5000 meters. Saw a lot of beautiful nature. Everything under Omar's leadership, top guide. With much knowledge of the surroundings. Good at communicating.

Best excursion ever in Peru!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely unforgettable experience in Peru! This was honestly one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had in Peru! 🇵🇪❤️ From the very beginning, everything was incredibly well organised. Our guide Jesús and driver Sebastián contacted me well in advance (which, let’s be honest, is quite a rare thing in Peru 😁), picked me up from the hotel exactly on time, and took care of everything throughout the whole trip. The guide Jesús was always available, incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and made sure I had all the information I needed at every location. I never had to worry about anything — I could simply relax and enjoy the journey. But the sense of humour deserves a special mention! 😂 At one point, I jokingly asked them to take good care of my big alpaca toy. Well… they took my request VERY seriously! 😅 They cuddled her, gave her water, fed her, and even read her bedtime stories! 😂😂😂 Honestly, after seeing how responsibly they looked after my alpaca, I can only imagine how well they would take care of your children! 😆 A huge THANK YOU to this amazing team for making my trip so enjoyable, stress-free, and full of unforgettable memories. The professionalism, punctuality, kindness, and, most importantly, the great sense of humour made this experience truly special. I would 100% recommend them to anyone travelling to Peru. If you want a trip that is well organised and filled with good vibes and laughter, you’ve found the right people! 🇵🇪❤️ Thank you for an amazing adventure! 🦙😂✨

Always in a rush, and unnecessarily

The places we visited were outstanding and beautiful, and the mini bus was comfortable. But for the duration of the tour, we always felt in a rush, completely unnecessarily. The guide Alonso gave us just 20 min (!!) for the hotel check-in, which is not even enough time to get your keys and go to the bathroom, to then go to the thermal baths and stay there for just 1 hour with so much to see. The result is that we stayed at the hotel since 4pm with nothing else to do. The second day was equally rushed: we stopped for lunch at a buffet restaurant at 11:15am which is just ridiculous, and then we stopped in Chivay under the sun for 1 hour to wait for other people to join us. Also the various places they stop to are nothing else but tourist traps, and I can understand in the canyon where choices are limited but not in the city (1st stop). The Colca Canyon is worth it and you must visit it, and 2 days are well spent, but you better choose another company.

Ik was such a great trip. The sights were spectacular, and everything was well organised. Our guide Jésus is the best. He made the group feel like a team within an hour after having met. Muchas gracias amigo!

A passionate guide.

Jesús is a guide who knows how to convey his passion for the area very well. His love for the canyon is evident. In addition, he is very attentive, punctual, and accompanies the entire experience with information that makes you feel part of Arequipa. Without a doubt, we would repeat with him.

Very interesting

The experience has been very good. Jesús is a great guide; he has been there for us the whole time and managed to unite the group from the very first moment. We felt like a big family. I highly recommend his work. Thank you for this magnificent experience!!

Worth a visit to the Colca Canyon region

It was all well organized. In the morning of the first day you can see llamas, alpacas and vicuñas. The lunch buffet (to be paid for yourself) was fine. Afterwards, manger was able to swim in the Hot Springs for an hour and a half. The Hotel Pascana in Chivay was also good: The room was modern and the breakfast buffet the next day was good. Afterwards, we visited a few villages before heading to Cruz del Condor, where we had an hour. Afterwards we went back to Chivay (with a few stops). There you could have a lunch buffet again (but I went to another restaurant). Then you could either continue to Puno or return to Arequipa. I felt the trip was a good alternative to trekking.

Don't miss the Colca Canyon

We really enjoyed the 2D trip to the Colca Valley. Everything went great, from the timing to the food and the whole experience. The Guide (Rosario) was great. Highly recommended.

Well organized colca tour with Puno connection

We did the Colca Canyon 2D/1N tour ending in Puno and everything was perfectly organized. The staff was professional, the guide knowledgeable, and the logistics were smooth. Great option for travelers continuing their journey. Highly recommended.
