The time of our lives! - We had the time of our lives visiting Peru thanks to Kaypi Peru and our guide Franco! Kaypi Peru created an itinerary that took us to all of the top spots and made every minute count in a country that's jam-packed with sights. We saw and did such a fun variety. And I couldn't believe the breadth of knowledge that Franco had about Peru - he was able to answer all of our questions and more, and he was such a joy and comfort to be around. It was such an amazing trip - I was I was still there right now!

10/10 experience. Book the trip! - My mom and came back from Peru 2 weeks ago and we are still wishing we were there. It was a very magical experience getting to explore Peru. From humble islands to iconic wonders of the world. I couldn’t have done this trip with my mom if it wasn’t for Renso and his partner Elias. Renso was there for us as if my mother was his own. He and Elias were punctual, extremely knowledgeable about Peru’s history and was the funnest and coolest tour guide near and far. We had a blast. This trip wouldn’t have been as fun if it wasn’t for them. My mom and I can’t stop talking about the magical time we had. Thank you Renso and Elias! Mama Rosa and I will hold u in our hearts forever. 10/10 recommend booking this tour.

A well organized, entertaining tour - My husband and I booked the 10 days Peru High Andes Program and it was the best decision we took. Kaypi took care of everything for us from the flight tickets to taking us to all the little known places in Peru. We covered Lima, Puno, Uros Islands, Amantani Island, Tequile Island, Cusco, Sacred Valley, Maras, Moray, Ollantaytambo, Machu Picchu and more! Our guide Franco was the best. He was very knowledgeable, spoke good English and was fun to hang out with. He took us to places with the best food. Kaypi will not disappoint, for sure!

Best Peru Adventure with Franco as our very informative and friendly guide! Everything went smoothly and we recommend! - My husband and I took the 10 day Machu Picchu express tour and loved every minute of it! Franco, ourTour Guide, was organized, professional, and always ready with an explanation and the history of the places that we visited. The tour itself covered city of Lima, as well as Uros Islands, Puno, Cusco, and of course, Machu Picchu! We were amazed every step of the way. Felt a little bit of elevation sickness on day, two and three, but took medication that helped. The most challenging part was visiting Amanti Island. The homestay was friendly and a true cultural experience. The climb up the mountain was a challenge as it was straight up incline for an hour and a half. My husband helped lead the group, and paced us every hundred steps so that we could stop and take a breath. This helped a lot, and the whole group was very proud of themselves as they reached the top! What an experience! Once in the lifetime type of trip! We would highly recommend it and specifically our tour guide Franco!

Trip of a lifetime! - We booked our trip to Peru through Groupon and chose Kaypi Tours, not knowing exactly what to expect. However, from start to finish, the experience exceeded all our expectations. Booking our trip was a breeze thanks to Kaypi, and Peru itself was nothing short of breathtaking. Machu Picchu left us speechless, and the local cuisine was simply fabulous.
Our guide Franco deserves special mention; he was not just knowledgeable but truly made our journey unforgettable. His insights into Peruvian culture and history enriched every excursion, from Cusco to Ollantaytambo, the Maras Salt Mines, and even an Alpaca Farm visit. Franco's passion for his country and warmth towards our group made him more than just a guide – he became a friend.
Every aspect of the tour was well-planned and executed flawlessly, ensuring we could relax and enjoy every moment without worrying about logistics. The group we traveled with was amazing, adding to the camaraderie and joy of the experience. We can confidently say this was our favorite trip ever, thanks to the impeccable service of Kaypi Tours and the exceptional guidance of Franco. Thank you for the incredible memories!

Super fun day and worth doing. - Super fun day organized by Alpaca. We were originally scheduled to hike Rainbow Mountain but succumbed to an injury. We called Alpaca and they let us switch yours. Had a great visit at Alpaca company, a jewelry place, a few Inca sites and also had a fantastic Peruvian buffet for lunch. The day was packed and well planned. Simon was a fantastic tour guide.
There are a lot of alpaca stores in Cusco, I would recommend this trip early on the trip to get used to high altitudes but also the education on alpaca wool.

Absolutely amazing! - We purchased our trip through Groupon. We didn’t know what to expect but it turned out to be super easy to book our trip with Kaypi. Peru was absolutely beautiful. Machu Pucchi was breathtaking, and the food was fabulous. Our guide was Franco and he was awesome. He taught us so much about the culture and history. All the excursions were excellent and the people were so sweet and endearing. Franco has been the best guide we have ever had. It was hands down our favorite trip ever. It was physically challenging at times but well worth it. We were so blessed to have had such an amazing group of people on our tour. They were all wonderful. Thank you all for an amazing trip and great memories!
