Testimonials

Hello Bernard,

We are back in NY and wanted to say that we had a wonderful time in Peru. Everything was well organized and as per schedule, including all transfers. We were amazed at the efficiency of the Peruvians. The Inca trail hike was spectacular and we really recommend Lucio, the our guide, and M. A. travels for making our experience there unforgettable.

Thank you.

Dear Richard,

It's been 2 weeks since I came back from Peru and reality has not hit me quite yet. What can I say about Peru that has not been said. This was a long awaited dream of mine and I want to thank you and Peru for less for making it real. The accommodations were excellent. All the guides were extremely helpful, but truly every Peruvian I was in contact with was welcoming. As a woman, I felt very safe everywhere. Again thank you for a great trip and I will definitely recommend Peru For Less to anybody planning a trip in South America.

Greetings Bernard,

I really liked the people that I met, all were so friendly and helpful. The entire trip through PeruForLess, including the Inca Trail guide and all of the porters, and the Hotel in Cusco and in Aguas Calientes were all fantastic. I would recommend your company to anyone who asks. The people treated us very well, were extremely helpful and as a matter of fact, I have exchanged emails with many of them, including a few folks at Hotel Presidente, some new aikido buddies, the Inca Trail guide, Humberto, and of course I will stay in touch with you. I cannot say enough about the incredible helpful porters and their incredibly hard-working and professional manner. I plan on coming back to your country, again and again, if I can manage it. Next time, I hope to bring some other friends. Not once in my whole entire time in Peru, did I have a bad experience! Cusco is a beautiful city. Machu Picchu is amazing. Your country is beautiful, the land and the people. Patient and kind. I don't really prefer big cities, so Lima is not where I'd spend my time in Peru. However, the countrysides, the smaller towns and the natural wonders are more my cup of tea. I realize that this is a rambling email, but wanted to write down as much as I could now, so that you are aware that you have done a wonderful job of taking care of us.

Muchas gracias. I will stay in touch!

Dear Richard,

We, David and Ursula Chappell, are back from an absolutely wonderful trip to Peru and want to thank you very, very much for arranging this trip on rather short notice. It could not have been better! Every little detail, and there were plenty of them, went like clock work. Since I work in the tourist industry here in Hawaii myself, I know how many things can go wrong, but nothing did, we were in awe! You work with fantastic, reliable, polite, thoughtful, helpful people and agencies in Peru, we can't thank them enough. We also liked all the hotels you had chosen for us. We'll definitely recommend Peru and Peru For Less to our friends.

Thank you again!!

Hi Bernard,

Peru was wonderful! Regret we did not spend more time there, although it would have taken us months, maybe, to visit the whole country.

I have no complaints; everything was wonderfully organised. I particularly loved the Andean Apartments (we had the attic/loft room).

With Christmas around the corner, everyone is pretty busy here. I'm the Catholic one... will write u again.

Regards

Dear Bernard,

Peru was a very good trip. the land and the people are fantastic, we had no rain!!! Arequipa and Puno were great. Bus trip Puno-Cusco was very good, not only with the landsacpes we were able to see, but allowed us to rest. Hacienda Incatambo hotel was delightful, since we were the only guests. we were given a suite!! and the service was fantastic.

All in all, a fun trip. thanks for your help. We will recommend you to our friends.

sincerely

Hi Bernard,

Happy New Year! Envious you were in Cusco for the event...trust it was a great one!

The Peruvian trip was one of the most amazing trips we've done, and MP/Inca trail was unbelievable - highly recommended. I'm glad we did it, and am grateful for your help on this.

The stay in the Sacred Valley overnight was EXCELLENT - very worthwhile and recommended. It was great to be away from everyone & everything in such a beautiful surrounds.

Cheers,

Dear Rick and Susana,

Sorry I haven't gotten back to your earlier.  The trip was excellent. Everything was very well organized, transfers/trips were always on time, hotels very good, trips interesing.  I should have probably spent one more day in Cusco , this is really beautiful city.

I'm glad I decided to take the train to Puno - somebody should tell Lonely Planet not to discourage travellers :) The Bolivian part was also good, La Paz looks very nice, it's very hard to believe that just 5 months ago they had all those riots in the city.

Anyway, thanks for organizing everything so well, I will definitelly recommend you guys if I have a chance.

Hi Richard,

Phyllis and I had a wonderful vacation in Peru. It was fantastic. A truly beautiful country with great people. First of all, we were very impressed with the tour companies and how they met us at every hotel, bus station, train station and airport. It was one of those small things that allowed us to be totally relaxed and enjoy everything else. We truely appreciated the Peruvian people and how friendly they are. We had great meals, some at restaurants you recommended: Astrid y Gaston in Lima, and a couple in Cusco that I can't remember the names. Also, the hotels were all charming and well staffed. The tours were also very good. We enjoyed the Lima city tour, the tour out of Pisco (Ballestas Islands), and of course the Sacred Valley was beautiful. We tended to think that Sacsayhuaman was more interesting than Macchu Pichu because of the stone work, however, Macchu Pichu was spectacular in its' setting, especially after the crowds left. Ollantaytambo was also amazing. Your company did an excellent job and we certainly would ask you to plan our next South American trip in a few years. We have discussed a Buenos Aires to Patagonia to Santiago trip; maybe in 2008. Thank you again for a wonderful vacation.

Regards,
