Great experience with Caral trip - The trip was excellent. Out guide Kathiya was very nice. The guide and the driver were very patient, gave us lot of time at both Caral and Barranca. They took us to a very nice restaurant and helped us to chose good dishes. At Caral, they explained us the place very well, they even helped us to convert currency. I highly recommend them.

Caral was awesome - The driver was excellent. Even though the drive was long and the terrain was a bit rough, the drive was very interesting and enjoyable! There was much more to see at the site than I expected. The guide was a good translator and very nice. We had a great time!

Great experience! - The driver was excellent and played nice music which made the very long but scenic drive pass quickly. The guide did a great job of translating for us. The site was awesome and there was more to see there than I expected!

Interesting discovery of 5,000+ Year Old civilization - It's amazing to learn that Caral is only 3% uncovered and still being researched/uncovered after nearly 30 years. There is much to learn from a culture that existed over 5,000 years ago.

Best Deal for Caral Day Trip! - What a great tour with Jose!! Since it's an early start, you have the option to grab breakfast at a cafe along the route. I enjoyed looking at the desert scenery during the ride. Caral is an amazing historic site worth seeing. Also, it was fun to visit Barranca (right on the coast with beautiful views) after Caral for a late lunch. I recommend trying one of the Tacu-Tato specials at the restaurant. Overall, I had such a fun day trip and would recommend it.

Must do - The whole tour was perfect. Finishing in a local restaurant was a wonderful experience. Excellent guide. In summertime you can‘t pass the river so you have to walk at least half an hour. It could be very hot because it‘s a desert.

Historical Ruins, Good Lunch - I wouldn't say there was a most memorable part of the strip caral itself was very informative and very cool. After corral the tour continue to eat lunch by the ocean at a very nice restaurant delicious ceviche then there is one more small stop. My tour guide was very smart and informative plus had a great personality. My only complaint with the tour is it is all day and lunch is not included nor is breakfast, for breakfast you do stuff off at a gas station so you can get snacks and coffee.
