Trip of Lifetime
Peru

Sep 15 - Sep 24, 2024
This trip was amazing! Planning it through Kimkim was so worth it! The only part that was difficult was the day we were in the Sacred Valley. We did not feel like we had enough time there, so I definitely recommend setting aside a full day for that. Otherwise, it will feel rushed. We saw so many awesome animals during our trip! We went to the Amazon rainforest which was a dream! Machu Picchu was the best part by far. It was gorgeous! We also made it all the way to Lake Titicaca! My suggestion for altitude is definitely to do as the locals do! I would recommend this trip to anyone! It’s a once in a lifetime experience. Thank you Kimkim, Liz, and everyone we met along the way that helped make this journey so special!
Hotel Reviews
Small rooms. Lamp was broken. Needs a little work but it was fine for one night. We hardly stayed in the hotel much anyways. It served its purpose. The location is awesome though! Close to the train and buses.
They didn’t warn us ahead that they charge for coffee in the room. However, their breakfast was awesome! The location was also great!
Favorite hotel of the trip! Grab some emolliente from the cart in the courtyard! Highly recommend this hotel, it’s gorgeous! Loved how comfortable and luxurious it was here!
We love Tino! Had the best experience here! The food and bar were awesome! Thank you for such an amazing time! Glad we got to see so many exotic birds and animals!
The restaurant downstairs was delicious! The hotel is simple. It wasn’t close to town but we were too tired to explore anyways. This hotel also served its purpose. Rest and food were our main needs especially at that elevation! Overall it was a good time.
Activity Reviews
The first night we did a night walk with Tino and it was awesome! Loved our rooms! An absolutely gorgeous place! Dinner was delicious!
This made our time in Lima special! 100 percent would do again!
Last day was great. Had lots of time to pack up and head out. Overall a smooth travel day to Cusco.
The full day here was awesome! We started our day with bird watching! Then, we got to do the canopy walk. Later we went canoeing around a lake and saw so much wildlife. On the way back to the lodge we even saw wild capybaras! All the food was delicious that day too! Truly an amazing experience!
This day felt very rushed, unfortunately. We did not get to spend enough time in the Sacred Valley and had to rush to make it to the Panchamanca on time. Other than that we had an awesome time. Our guide and driver were so awesome that day making sure we still made it to everything! I recommend spending a full day in the Sacred Valley.
I slept through most of this! Overall, it was great. We made some great stops and even saw some monolithic structures! We tried Coati coffee which was tasty. We got some good souvenirs during this journey! We also visited the Church of San Pedro. It was a fun time and got us to Lake Titicaca!
This was so cool! It felt other-worldly going here and seeing how the people live! Awesome day on the beautiful Lake Titicaca! It’s a journey but definitely worth it! We really were able to immerse ourselves in the culture!
Obviously our favorite part of the trip! Cusco is one of the most beautiful cities my husband and I have ever been to! Machu Picchu was picturesque and I got emotional seeing it! Definitely, the highlight of the whole trip!
