Viva Peru 🤩🤩♥️♥️ - We are on our 4th day w Peru Hop on our way to Cusco. So far it has been truly amazing. One adventure better than the next and we have seen some Wonders 🤩 Peru is simply stunning as u can see from the photos. And PeruHop really make it accessible, affordable , interesting and safe. Hats off to the founders. They use only local guides and Diana , our guide was a star 🌟, professional , informative and passionate about her wonderful country. And also SUPER Fun 🤩 🤩🤩 The excursions were all GREAT , well run , good guides and really great value. You can really pack a lot into each day and PH make it all very easy. Highlights…. Several per day but my favourites were Balliestas island tour , sand buggy / boarding ( Mad Max - not of the faint hearted 🏄😎) and Huacachina oasis. Busses are good as were the drivers. Sooo glad that we didn’t rent a car as PeruHop have genuinely enriched our Peruvian adventure and taken all the stress out of the trip ! You also get to hang out with lots of interesting , like minded travellers. GREAT company ! Couldn’t recommend them highly enough Viva PeruHop Peter and Chris 🇮🇪

The best tour guide - Franco was a fantastic guide. Not only does he have the perfect hospitality personality but he’s also knowledgeable about the sights on the trip. Thanks to him the trip went smoothly and allowed me to continue the next leg of my journey. Additionally, the views and experiences, especially on the dune buggy and secret slave tunnels, are worth it.
