I can thoroughly recommend this tour. I arranged it online with Julio in advance and his English and communication was excellent. It was fairly priced and excellent value. We had a small group of 6 and we’re collected at the port gates by a minibus with the delightful and very knowledgeable Cynthia as our guide. We packed a lot into the day - between 8.30-4 we visited Huaca de La Luna and museum, the town centre and cathedral, a local market, Chan Chan and museum, and finished at the beach. We didn’t have much time there, as we had to return to the ship, but some of the group managed a very quick meal of some excellent ceviche at the recommended restaurant. Julio even provided us with a super cool drone video and group photo. Thank you Julio, Cynthia and our driver for a memorable tour.Jerry L

We did a lot of tours when in South America, this one was really good! Julio was unbelievable, he asked about our interests and made recommendations to plan out our day. During the long day we frequently changed our plans as we learned more. Nothing was to much or too little, Julio did it all! He also knew the major (big bus) tour schedule so we planned to avoid crowds. His English skills were superb, as was his local knowledge. Being a world traveler, he had great insights on everything we saw - including a local festival with rare horses. For some temple sites, only local certified guides can do the tour, but Julio handpicked them too! Highly recommended!!! And, yes, we saw all the places in the photos in 1 day!Walter_K

I joined this tour as a solo traveler from a cruise ship. Julio, our guide, was in contact with me prior to arrival via WhatsApp and he gave me great directions to find the meeting place. Our day was jammed full of culture, archeological ruins, museums and historical information that really allowed me to gain a rich understanding of Peru. Everything about the tour was wonderful from the guide, to the driver to the many stops throughout the day.
