Off the beaten trek
Fun experience if you are looking for an activity where you won’t see other travelers.
The hike is soft and good to start feeling comfortable with altitude. We jumped a creek during the whole hike inside a big canyon and then we visited a cozy town Yura that was build with pink stone

Absolutely boring and expensive
Absolutely boring and expensive, you just walk for 1 hour to a fall and then turn back to the city. Nothing exciting and even the van is parked far to make you feel that you walked for long. Thermal bath was NOT included as advertised and there was no refund. Tour started at 8 AM and finished at 2 PM in the city. Please check for other day trips at Arequipa which gives you value for money. I paid $70 USD for 2 days Colca Canyon hike which included food and accommodation. In my opinion this is definitely NOT worth $90 CAD and this tour is very rare to take-off coz not many people book. I had to book last min based on a tour guide recommendation as my rafting tour got cancelled.

Hola! thanks for sharing your feedback and toughts. This is an awful review four us and also surprising cause all the other travelers that went with you the same day were happy and left 5 stars reviews....The advertisment doesnt include the entrance ticket and this experience is an out of the beaten path thats why it costs more. We tried to contact you and offer something to make you feel better about it but unfortundadly your didnt reply :( Best wishes for your trip in Peru

Great experience!
Sline was a great tour guide for the day. He was always informative and happy to answer questions and very friendly. The hike was to die for! The only strenuous part was the walk back up the road from the trailhead — but Sline made sure we felt comfortable taking it slow so it wasn’t too bad (from our viewpoint as a family who only does light hiking). Other than that, I wouldn’t call the hike strenuous, but be prepared to use rocks to cross the small river. I recommend sturdy sandals (Chacos, Tevas, Keens, etc.) or shoes you’re willing to step in the water with — it makes it more adventurous and a little less stressful when crossing the small river. Sline was very helpful in the whole process. The waterfall at the end was super cool and very worth it! We were able to end the day by going to the viewpoints in the Yanahuara neighborhood and getting some queso helado, the special ice cream in Arequipa. Highly recommend!

Waterfall - gorgeous!!! Tour operator - terrible!!
In the arid and desolate landscape surrounding Arequipa, Capua Waterfall is definitely worth a visit!! The walk is easy and beautiful - an oasis of greenery as well as picturesque waterfalls. Absolutely stunning!
The ‘tour’ itself, however, was disappointing. Our Guide seemed to suffer from narcolepsy!! For the first half hour after pickup he was informative, then promptly fell asleep and snored all the way to the waterfall. He was fine for the canyon walk, but within a minute of being back in the car he was instantly asleep and snored all the way back to Arequipa!
Do the waterfall - but find a different operator to do it with!!

Hola Jason! I´m very sorry to hear that you had a bad momment with our guide Sline. He is an amazing guide and person but recently he is actually having a sleep disorder for which he is receiving medical treatment from we very much hope he can recover soon to work again (we have more guides working with us too).
Please tell me how I can reward you during your trip. We dont want that you take home bad memories from Peru :)

Great hike in a river to see a beautiful waterfall
The hike was beautiful. It was fun walking in the river. The waterfall was incredible. The trip after to the thermal pool was just ok. The water wasn’t very hot. Our guide was lovely and was very informative. Highly recommend the hike.
