Above and Beyond!
As a Travel Advisor, it's easy to book flights and accommodations, and even an activity or two, for my clients. The challenge often lies in letting go of the reins and entrusting my clients to someone else.
I scheduled a day trip for my clients to see Machu Picchu as well as transportation to and from the airport. I came across Lipa Tours and they were amazing! They went above and beyond what I could have asked for. Not only did they meet my clients at the airport, they took them on a tour of Cusco until they were able to check into their hotel. They then picked them up the next morning for the almost two hour drive to the Aguas Calientes train station. Lipa Tours was waiting for my clients after their Machu Picchu tour and returned them safely to the airport to return to Lima. They sent my pictures and kept me updated every step of the way.
My clients were in excellent hands and I'd recommend Lipa Tours to any of my clients and colleagues.
