Andean Travel Experience

It was a good trip. There were a couple of things that I would have changed but the hotels were nice, and the rides were on time and reliable.

Liz put together an amazing trip that got us to the Amazon rainforest and to hike the Inca trail. All the details were perfect and even last minute changes were handled easily.

There were many times that had I had plan this myself I would have chosen the wrong approach from the types of tours to the places to see and what is possible in the area.

Highly recommend Peru and Liz.

Every bit of the planning of this trip was perfect! Liz did an amazing job planning it from pick up to drop off flights and all. Each and every guide we had was amazing. So knowledgeable and gave us so much information about the culture, food and people.The hotels she picked out were perfect! We were never waiting for any of our guides or drivers. Each and everyone of them was standing there waiting for us. They were kind and punctual. Peru is one of the most amazing countries I have ever visited and this trip planning made that possible. I felt that the price we paid for this trip was more than fair for the level of service we received. My children had an unforgettable experience everywhere we went in Peru. Liz also suggested we spend New Year's Eve in Cusco. That was the most amazing New Year's I have ever had!! It was so festive and exciting! We cannot wait to book another trip with Liz to see more countries in South America!!

Hotel Review

Aranwa Paracas Resort & Spa

Paracas, Pisco, Ica

This hotel was clean and perfectly situated right on Paracas Bay. The pool was huge and they gave us catamaran rides out to the reserve. We saw lots of wildlife. It was the best hotel we stayed at on our entire trip.

Everything was amazing!
Liz Karen was extremely responsive to our desires and changing needs and put together a wonderful itinerary which worked without a glitch!

What an amazing, flawless, and fabulous trip! Thanks to Karen for helping us plan an exciting adventure. And thanks to Lisbeth for providing quick responses to any and all questions during our trip. We all fell in love with Peru and would definitely travel with KimKim again. Thank you for helping us create so many wonderful memories!

The logistics were seamless, which helped make for a stress free amazing trip. The suggestion to go to the Valley first to adjust to altitude was a good one. The altitude of Cusco was a challenge. The guides were extremely knowledgeable. We were happy to be able to do white water rafting before the river became to intense with the rainy season. Machu Pichu was on our must see list and we were blessed the weather was agreeable that day. The lunch at El Albergue farm was one of our favorites.

Private Walking tour to Sacsayhuaman, Cusco city & San Pedro Market

Cusco

Oscar was very knowledgeable and we had a great tour of the city and church .

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Peru, visiting Arequipa, Colca Canyon, Puno, taking the train from Puno to Cusco, touring the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu. All the tour guides were knowledgable, friendly, and informative. The hotels and their locations were comfortable, included meals, and centrally located. The transfers made the daily travel very easy. Our local specialist offered great advice and incorporated the elements that were key to us and our visit. The travel was easy and seamless because of her planning.

All of the guides were great. Not only were they knowledgeable, they were very aware of our adjustments to the altitude and had very good suggestions.
