A day full of thrills and beautiful views! - Maverick was a wonderful tour guide! This entire day was an absolute blast. It was awesome seeing the sea life out at the islands and was such a thrill sand boarding and riding around in the sand buggy.

The guides make all the difference! - Marjorie was our guide for the 2 day excursion. She was helpful and checked up on us often. I appreciate her taking lots of pictures and videos for us. On the way back to Lima, our guide Franco was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of good tips. He explained what areas to avoid, what prices we should be paying for taxis, and provided lots of restaurant recommendations.

Great organization with great guide but poorly maintained buses - Peru Hop is a great option for traveling through Peru easily and in an organized way. We traveled from Arequipa to Lima with stops in Huacachina and Paracas. Given their online presence, the price, and the positive online reviews, we had high expectations for Peru Hop. Unfortunately, we were somewhat disappointed, as the buses were far from comfortable. Essentially, they are regular travel buses and not comparable to the level of comfort we had experienced previously with Civa (Excluciva). Having been spoiled by the space and comfort there, the difference was noticeable. On the 12+ hour journey from Arequipa to Huacachina, there was no water for handwashing, no paper in the toilet, which was extremely dirty, and the blankets provided were stained. Additionally, the USB port did not work. The schedule was also too tight, forcing us to eat lunch the bus instead of by the sea. The subsequent buses were also quite worn but better overall, though the trips were shorter. That being said, the trip itself was very well organized, and our guide Renzo was fantastic. He kept us informed about everything and was always there to assist us. The additional tours available for booking were also well organized and truly enjoyable. All in all, Peru Hop is recommended, especially if you’re short on time, want a hassle-free experience, and wish to see a lot. However, they definitely need to improve their buses!
