“Booked this tour online, only to learn on the tour that everybody else just booked at the local office in Arequipa and paid literally LESS THAN HALF of what we did. Viator will not honor their "Lowest Price Guarantee" for various shady reasons (e.g. they do not accept photos of the other participants' tickets as proof because the price is stated in Peruvian Soles... yeah well, of course, they booked locally and paid in the local currency). So, buyers beware: If you absolutely have to book on Viator, make sure to always choose the local currency for payments and be prepared to be massively overcharged.”

“The tour was soooo rushed. They tried to squeeze too many stops in so you only ever got to spend a bit of time at each one of them. Overall it felt like we spent more time in the bus driving around than seeing things. The pick up was quite late. We got told to be ready between 3-3:30am. We got picked up at 4am. While we were waiting we tried to contact them. Tried multiple phone numbers without any luck. The guide tried really hard to make it enjoyable but the poor guy had a really difficult task at hand. Or maybe impossible. The transfer to Puno was great…”

“Long trip on windy roads and high altitude. The view along the way was incredible although it was cloudy. Overall it was an efficient trip to go to Puno from Arequipa without backtracking. Colca canyon national park entrance fee was ridiculously expensive for no guarantee of seeing the condors. Only do this one way transfer if you are fit and can handle altitude”
2 days Colca Canyon from Arequipa, condors and Chacapi hot springs, then transfer to Puno. Small group, bilingual guide, hotel in Chivay.
“Amazing experience, the tour was very well organised with a professional, friendly guide (Flor) who gave insightful information about the Cañon and the animals there in both Spanish and English. The views of the Cañon from the viewpoints will take your breath away and we saw many Vicuña, Alpaca and Llamas as well as 3 Condors who flew right over our heads! The hot springs on the first day were a great experience, very relaxing and in a beautiful setting. Casita de Anita Hotel was very comfortable and in a great location in the main square of Chivay. They provide a good breakfast of ham, cheese, eggs and bread before…”

“The trip was really enjoyable & well organised throughout. The drive through the amazing scenery, provided opportunity to stop and see alpacas & llamas close up as well as observe the volcanoes of the area. We chose not to visit the hot springs instead enjoying a stroll around the town which is lovely. The trip to the Canyon to see the Condor was spectacular.
