SALKANTAY TREK REVIEW
FRANCOIS – SACRED VALLEY TOUR
““My wife and I had a wonderful time in Peru. We had a good experience planning and booking with Into Peru. They had some really good recommendations and planned a seamless and worry-less trip from start to finish. We visited Lima, Cusco, Arequipa and Ica and loved them all. I particularly recommend Cusco and the Sacred Valley – we loved it.”
Machu Picchu and Palccoyo Rainbow Mountain were both excellent and so glad to tick them off the bucket list! The food in Lima was fantastic, we loved aji de gallina and picarones particularly. Can’t recommend Into Peru highly enough, they were so quick to answer any queries, the tour guides and service in Peru was outstanding – 12 perfect days. Merci beaucoup!”
