Nice tour, offered together in Spanish & English with separate guides. Our English tour guide Napo spoke perfect English, very informative. The tour covers a number of places ending with a stop along the ocean, and is reasonably priced for what is offered. I do recommend this tour.

We did a lot of tours when in South America, this one was really good! Julio was unbelievable, he asked about our interests and made recommendations to plan out our day. During the long day we frequently changed our plans as we learned more. Nothing was to much or too little, Julio did it all! He also knew the major (big bus) tour schedule so we planned to avoid crowds. His English skills were superb, as was his local knowledge. Being a world traveler, he had great insights on everything we saw - including a local festival with rare horses. For some temple sites, only local certified guides can do the tour, but Julio handpicked them too! Highly recommended!!! And, yes, we saw all the places in the photos in 1 day!

Visiting Lima is always a rewarding experience! We booked an early evening visit to the awesome "Huaca Pucllana" inca ruins, rather impressive with the scenic lights on. Right after the visit, reservations were made at "Huaca Pucllana Dining Experience", a restaurant by the acclaimed Chef Marilú Madueño! No need to say we got a table almost in front of the main pyramid! What a feeling! We had a fantastic dinner, with courteous and kind service, a nice wine and Chef Marilú Madueño outstanding cuisine - Italian flavors and Peruvian touches. We loved the experience! Bon Appétit!
