Just had an amazing morning with Lucas who led this tour just for me! We went to the swamp area as well as the seaside, where we must have seen 30 or 40 species of birds in total, pelicans, flamingos, herons, flycatcher and more. Lucas was very friendly and knowledgable. He had bird ID charts and bird call app but no binoculars. The visit was not far out of Lima and it was lovely too to be out of the hustle and bustle of the city.

After entertaining you at lunch with some of his many stories, our funny host will show you his ceramics workshop. He will also take you to workshops of his talented fellow artisans, who make other types of Peruvian handicrafts, such as rugs and textile.

My girlfriend and I had the most amazing time in Peru, thanks to Natalie and her team at Alternative Peru. Natalie created a personalized tour for the two of us that showed us almost everything Peru has to offer- from the amazing food scene in Lima to Cusco/Machu Picchu and the ancient sites in the surrounding area, to world’s highest Lake at elevation- Lake Titicaca, and ending in the majestic Amazon. Natalie put together an epic trip that we won’t ever forget! It was great to have everything booked and planned for us which made traveling through the country so much easier. We loved that Alternative Peru shows you all the main tourist sites of the country, but also takes you off the beaten path, so you get to see how the real Peruvians live. One of our highlights of this experience is all of the local cuisine we got to taste- this is especially the case with our fishing/ cultural tour of Lima that we did with Alberto. This is a most do tour while in Lima and Alberto, was so informative. We couldn’t be happier with our experience in Peru and highly recommended using Alternative Peru if you are visiting the country.

We booked our city tour with Bite Peru on the recommendation of our tour operator. And to our surprise my wife and I got a personalized tour of the city by the company owner Rueben. He is an engaging and knowledgeable tour guide. We did a walking tour the old city, got a good historical overview of Peru and Lima, insights into Peruvian life and culture and he answered all of our questions. He has an excellent command of English. It felt like our best friend was taking us on a trip through his home town. The highlight was our introduction to Pisco Sour and a couple of delicious Peruvian dishes. We highly recommend Bite Peru.

The tour was perfectly organized. The pick up was right on time and the vehicle was very comfortable. We visited 3 different markets and the tour guide Jonathan was very well informed. His spoken English is on a very good level so on top of a lovely day with delicious food I also learned a lot :) He was also very flexible so I booked directly after the first tour a visit to the Larco Museum. Thank you Jonathan!
