The walking paths are very accessible and the ruins are extensive. Our tour guide was well informed and entertaining, the bus was comfortable and the driver was like a surgeon. Afterwards, we went to the local seaside and had lunch at what was probably one of the city's best restaurants, with a lovely view of the water. The surrounding areas illustrate the vast difference between rich and poor in Latin countries, so we felt we were in very good hands with our tour…”

An 8-hour Trujillo day trip linking Moche pyramids, Huanchaco’s reed-boat fishing, and Chan Chan’s adobe city, with hotel pickup.

“I was picked up outside my hostel and taken to each site. The guide I had was very knowledgeable and when she realised that I love history, she was even more enthusiastic to explain more. However, despite booking and paying for the tour in English I had to pay an extra 38Sol for a bilingual guide. The restaurant we stopped at for lunch took ages to bring my food out and when it arrived it wasn’t correct but I had to eat it anyway as there was no time to correct it. I would have preferred to spend more time or the archeological sites rather than going to the tourist…”
