    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

    Well organised trip although time at canyon was less

    Parama_B, Mar 2026
    The time given at canyon was only 40mins which was not enough. 1hr was provided for bath in thermal spring, atv biking etc. and the guide said that is what everyone wants

    Nice tour

    Gina_D, Jun 2025
    The pick-up and drop-off times may be delayed but are still acceptable. The travel time is relatively long, but the scenery is worth looking forward to.

    Long long bus rides but practical

    Condor Mirador

    Linda_E, Nov 2024
    Condor Mirador was memorable. It was thrilling to watch these graceful birds soar. Adequate breakfast, lunch stop was a good buffet. This was a good way to travel to Puno and see the country at the same time. Our first tour guide David spoke English well, was informative and cheerful. The guide changed after lunch when we transfered to Puno and changed busses. My husband and I climbed up on the bus and saw that there was not enough room on the bus for us. The tour guide said yes there was, go sit down. The last row of the bus had room for three people. We had to squeeze four people back there. My knees then had to be smashed into the seat in front of me. This was a very uncomfortable situation for all of us. This made for a less than ideal experience. A couple of hours and two stops later, two people at the front of the bus got off and thankfully for all of us back there our guide told us we could sit up front.

    Poor organization

    Bad organization, we were late to everything, when we got to breakfast there was no longer stock of butter and other things

    Best way to transfer from Arequipa to Puno

    Ricardo_S, Sep 2025
    Great way to make a transfer from Arequipa to Puno without losing what's in the middle. The guide David was excellent, so we can see the Vale de Colca, Chivay, Canyon de Colca, immense condors, volcanoes, lagoons, thermal pools, alpacas, lamas, vicuñas.. It was an intense but excellent day
