“The guide and driver were incredible. I have issue with the tour agency. We booked 2 separate tours with them for Friday and Saturday. Early Friday morning we were told there were not enough people for the tour unless we were willing to pay $23 more for a private tour. We agreed since our options were limited. ASI said, the guide spoke good English and was very informative. We arranged for pickup the following morning. Later that day we were asked for the tour office if we had paid the guide the additional money. I said no because no one instructed us to do so. She asked us to paid…”

“This is a difficult review to write as the company called on the morning of the tour to say they were cancelling the tour I had booked. Instead they offered an alternate tour which visited Sipan and the Brunning museum without the visit to Pt Eden. The main issue for me was I booked an English speaking tour and this was not.

“I was picked up outside my hostel and taken to each site. The guide I had was very knowledgeable and when she realised that I love history, she was even more enthusiastic to explain more. However, despite booking and paying for the tour in English I had to pay an extra 38Sol for a bilingual guide. The restaurant we stopped at for lunch took ages to bring my food out and when it arrived it wasn’t correct but I had to eat it anyway as there was no time to correct it. I would have preferred to spend more time or the archeological sites rather than going to the tourist…”
