    Memorable tour: More to visit in Peru than only Machu Picchu

    Overall, it was a great tour and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Peru. The included lunches and dinners were excellent, with great food and ambience, and ground transportation was smooth throughout. The gradual altitude acclimatization in the current itinerary works well and helps prepare for Machu Picchu. Places of attractions were carefully selected. We'd definitely recommend this tour to friends and family.

    This trip was hands down amazing! From the food, the locals and the views. I really enjoyed myself. Our tour leader was Fernando. He was excellent! Very knowledgeable, attentive and he made sure we were safe at all times. At times I would walk slower than the rest of the group and Fernando would stay right by my side. I truly adore him for that. He's such a sweet guy! The highlight of the tour was Machu Picchu. It's breathtaking and worth every penny! Also the other optional excursion to Paracas was VERY enjoyable. I highly recommend you book that too! It's more than just seeing penguins, we rode dune buggys in the desert, went wine tasting etc.. book it, you won't be disappointed… I always say I would never visit the same country twice, but after my experience in Peru, I would definitely go back.

    Sacred Peru - Highly Recommend!

    Our Sacred Peru tour was incredible. I was surprised by how much I loved each aspect of the trip. I assumed Machu Picchu would be the major highlight, but there were so many other experiences that were just as incredible. We loved our trip to the Uros Islands on Lake Titikaka, exploring various Incan ruins in the Sacred Valley, and wandering the streets of Arequipa and Cusco. Our tour guide, Fernando, is Peruvian and was a wonderful source of knowledge. His patience and attention to the needs of the group ensured we all had the best time.

Wow what an adventure !
Machu Picchu is now off my bucket list. It was a great adventure. It took a while to acclimate to the altitudes but am glad the tour started in Ariquipa and we worked our way to Machu Picchu so by the time I arrived I was able to climb without any issues. There was a lot of time on the bus but we stopped at many places to break it up. Great trip!!!

Zema is a sweet, kind man that gets it done! He employs the best tour guides around the country and makes sure we are all having a blast. He is a problem solver too. I literally only booked this trip because I wanted to go to Machu Picchu. The day before we were supposed to go on that excursion the local indigenous peoples began striking for equitable resources related to all the tourism that their lands bring into the country. My partner and I supported that effort and we were going to be highly disappointed if we did not get to go. With some creative work and networking, he was able to get us on the first day trip after the strike broke. This was our first post-Covid trip. Peru was super safe regarding masking and safety measures. Once again, cannot say enough about Zema and the people at Expat. This is my second trip with the company and I will continue to be a customer!
