    Raul is a great guide! His knowledge of the area and its history is amazing. He and our driver Alex took great care of our tour party for the entire two day trip. The views on this tour were truly breathtaking and we were lucky enough to see several condors soaring high above Colca Canyon. Highly recommended this tour!

    Great trip!

    Suzanne_H, May 2026
    This was a great way to get from Puno to Arequipa at the same time as seeing the Colca Canyon and condors. The trip included multiple stops at places of interest (small towns and viewing points) , an optional trip to thermal spring baths, hotel (small 3* hotel, on a par with other 3* hotels we’ve stayed at in Peru), dinner and local music/dance show. We had a great time and would recommend the trip. Things to be aware of - we left Arequipa early on a large comfortable coach aware that on day 2 we would be transferred to a smaller mini bus style transport. Approx half way to Colca at a service stop we were informed that we were switching to a smaller mini bus then. We joined a group who’d come from Arequipa - the mini bus was full and it felt quite a squeeze and from the back row which was raised it was difficult to see out of the window. - the evening dinner and music show was fine but the food was not great - other people seemed to be on different tours that did/did not include the same ‘things’. As a result on iDay 2 before we could go to the canyon to see the condors, we had to make a 30 minute round trip to pick people up who had chosen their own accommodation somewhat in the country side - we were told on day 2 that our pick up would be 6am or thereabouts but the hotel that the tour had booked us into didn’t start serving breakfast until 6am. Our pick up was adjusted to allow us to have breakfast but it felt like we’d had to rush breakfast to then do a detour to pick up the people who’d stayed in another town. - The guide was brilliant. Full of so much information, interesting and funny. He was really kind to a girl who was unwell, possibly suffering from the altitude and arranged for a doctor to meet her when we stopped for lunch. My only negative comment is that for the last hour and a half of the drive in to Puno he was watching a TV show or something on his mobile phone without ear phones and it was quite intrusive for us as passengers. - the driver got us there safely and in one piece but this sort of trip isn’t for the faint hearted! Early in the journey out of Puno e we drive past a lorry that was overturned and hanging off the side of the road - it had only recently happened. Some of the overtaking felt a little questionable but we survived! On the route into Arequipa we drive past a vehicle ‘graveyard’ containing lots of smashed in buses, coaches, mini buses etc which had obviously been in fairly serious accidents. But all that said, we saw lots of condors at Colca canyon which was amazing and we’d do it again!

    Great tour. Logistics were well organized and our guide Peter gave very insightful information and recommendations in two languages along the two days. They even brought us to an extra viewpoint in hope to see a Condor as it was rare this season.

    Sudeepa_S, Jun 2025
    It was a great tour . An amazing way to travel from puno to Arequipa while you visit so many places so many view points , little hikes , hot springs and the condor colca canyons . My tour had all meals included and the entrance fee to canyons as well . You see lots of places on your way to Chivay then you stay the night and next day you see the condors flying and the colca valley . The guide “ Bryan “ was good and given the hard task of speaking French and English for the entire tour , he was good made sure we all got the necessary information and made sure he took us to as many stops as possible. It was a good tour
