Main attraction, did not disappoint.
We spent 15 days in Peru with the company Peru Top Experience and we have nothing to complain about. We slept in the neighboring city and took the Vistadrome train in the morning, our hotel was near the train station. There was already a guide waiting for us at the station and showed us where to catch the bus to go up to Matcho Picho, because our ticket was for 2 PM. We got on the bus at the scheduled time and already had a guide with the sign waiting at the entrance of Matcho Picho (speaking Portuguese). Great guide and photographer. We made script two, with great historical explanation, we were very satisfied.

🇵🇪✨ **Cusco and Lima**
🇵🇪✨ Cusco and Lima, an experience that will remain in my heart forever.
Peru gave us much more than beautiful landscapes: it gave us moments, flavors, culture, history, and memories that we will carry with us. ❤️
Cusco was magic, history, and emotion; walking through its streets, learning about its culture, and living the Machu Picchu experience was simply unforgettable. 🏔️✨
Lima surprised us with its gastronomy, its places, and that very special mix between tradition and modernity. 🌊🍽️
I leave grateful for every place visited, every experience lived, and every memory created. Without a doubt, Peru has a special magic that stays in the soul. 🇵🇪❤️
See you soon, Peru. Thanks for everything. ✈️✨
Thank you agent Rosaura for designing an incredible trip and helping us with everything we needed!
From the first inquiry until the return of the trip, Rosaura performed in a professional and humane manner.
She helped us choose places to visit, advised on the best days and times to do the activities, places to eat, safety measures, how to take care of ourselves regarding altitude sickness, clothing we should bring, among many other tips and suggestions.
Thanks to her work, everything turned out perfect. We lived a dream trip in Cusco, Machu Picchu, and Lake Titicaca.
We didn't have to take care of anything other than enjoying ourselves since everything was thought out, designed, and booked in advance.
In the months leading up to the trip, he answered all our questions (which were many) and we had a video call so he could explain different things about the trip to us.
He chose the best transportation and excursion guides for us.
We highly recommend the experience and hiring the agency to ensure everything goes well, that there are no setbacks, and to be able to enjoy it without having to organize or worry about the logistics.
My favorite tour was Machu Picchu, including: taking the tourist train and having the view of the landscape, free time in Aguas Calientes to explore, a guided tour of the ruins, climbing Huayna Picchu, and the return on the train.
The hotels in all the cities where we stayed were very good, with very friendly staff, good breakfasts, and very nice and clean facilities.
We highlight that the trip had all transfers included, from the hotel to the excursions, to the airport and terminals round trip... we didn't have to pay separately or worry about getting taxis.
We also received very useful little gifts from the company!
Finally, I want to highlight that Rosaura helped us, even though the travel itinerary had already ended and she had no obligation, to book a hotel due to a medical problem I had before returning to my country. This beautiful and selfless gesture saved us trouble and time, and shows what an excellent professional and person the agent Rosaura is.
We found Peru Top Experience through a recommendation from an acquaintance who traveled with them, and we will continue to recommend them.
THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING!!!

Machu Picchu on a rainy day
Machu Picchu will always be a beautiful experience facing bad weather with a smile; obviously the clouds and rain complicate things, but it usually clears up for at least a few minutes for a souvenir photo.
