Editor’s Take

What to Look for in Peru Tour Reviews

Most trip reviews tend to focus on some or all of these 5 key areas, not all of which may be relevant to you: the tour guide, travel company, service level, country or countries traveled in, and the trip itinerary. Remember, just because you see a 1 star review doesn’t necessarily mean that person disliked the country.

The reviews for tours in Peru are overwhelmingly positive. Most reviews are blown away by the professionalism of the tour guides, and the quality of the tours offered. 

The hospitality of the tour guides in Peru is unparalleled. They are all driven with passion and genuine care for travelers, and have an infinitesimal amount of knowledge of Peru’s landscape, history, and culture. This hospitality extends to the entire tour staff, as the porters are also known for their cheer and humility.

Tours in Peru also tend to be smaller, allowing you stronger connections with the locals and the guides. Another perk of smaller tours means that you receive individualized attention as a traveler.

Some reviewers underestimated the activity level of their tour. Because of the altitude of some trails, travelers may find it challenging. There are several tours available, of varying levels of difficulty. Make sure you shop around to see which itineraries realistically fit your capabilities. Some tour companies also provide a training plan to ensure that you are ready for your trip. 

If the activity level and high-altitudes of Peru concerns you, fear not! Tours prioritize your safety  andcomfort above all else, and will usually give you sufficient time to properly climatize to the  high altitudes. We also have a guide to adjust to altitude-sickness, check it out here!
