Wonderful experience

Excellent experience!! Peru is a beautiful country, very rich in culture, much more than just Machu Pichu (which is incredible!). Vipac makes the whole experience much more pleasant and peaceful with your organization! The route is excellent, making you adapt to the altitude much more calmly and knowing wonderful sights, such as the Nazca lines!! The guides are extremely kind, always willing to help us, to take photos in the best angles, answering questions and explaining everything about the local culture, indicating the best restaurants, no rush to finish the tours! I highly recommend to travelers!!!
