Recent Reviews What our clients are saying about their festival touring experiences
The local guides, staff and people were very friendly and hospitable towards us with many happy moments spent sampling the local cuisine and beverages in the restaurants, cafes and with locals such as at Lake Titicaca and Maras.
Its easy to recommend the well known sites such as Lima, Cusco and Machu Picchu but visiting Arequipa with its many churches, volcanoes and traditional markets was memorable as was the day trip to Ollantaytambo town and archaeological site in the nearby hills.
Add to that Raqchi and the Sun Temple, Colca Canyon and Valley with its condors and hawks, there was plenty to see for all types of visitors that it would be unfair to single out one particular moment or experience. Attending both Corpus Christi and Inti Raymi festivities was an eye opening experience getting to witness a mixture of religious practices and soaking in the atmosphere and warm weather with thousands of people left you deeply emotional and excited.
I look forward to returning in the not so distant future to see the extra places on offer and partake in the additional Amazon visit as the those who were lucky enough to visit had a fun time living it up seeing the beautiful scenery and witnessing exotic animals in a safe environment. Thanks Explore and Global Journeys for a life changing trip!
