Excellent! - Excellent agency! We took 4 tours (Sillar, salt flats, pylons, 2 days in the Colca). They picked us up on time, the super prepared guides, the wide mobility, made sure to take us at the best times where there was not so much saturation. Our experience at the colca was experiential, we had lunch with a local family and participated in a traditional ceremony. Fully recommended!

Mediocre tour - The guide spoke little English, and couldn’t understand the questions we asked. Didn’t provide clear and relevant background information of places we visited. Both lunches were buffet, which was okay.

Disappointing - The first day on this tour was pretty boring. It was a long bus ride to the middle of nowhere. The look out, one of the main attractions of the day, was completely covered in fog so we couldn't see anything. To top it off our tour guide's English was difficult to understand and he provided very little insight. Only some basic info here or there. The hot springs were very disappointing. They were just tubs of luke warm water from the mountains. Some were not open so the available ones were crowded. Not what we expected at all. The hotel was freezing and had no hot water for showering. The only thing we enjoyed that day was the dancing at dinner time. The dancers were very good story tellers. The second day was better. Colca Canyon was interesting, but also foggy. It would have been better without the fog of course. We lucked out and saw some Condors, which we did enjoy seeing. Somehow the number of people on the tour grew significantly on the second day. By the time we were picked up, we were shafted to the back of the bus which wasn't very comfortable. If you want to do Colca Canyon, I recommend looking for a smaller tour size and doing it in a day. A smaller tour would hopefully mean you get a more personalized experience with a tour guide that could give you more insight. You can skip the hot springs (which we were excited for) and the cold hotel in Chivay. It's a longer day but having 2 days did not add much. The buffets were medicor.
