In Machu Pichu the guide Francisco was first class, explained perfectly and got us doubts

The vipac service was excellent, from the organization to the attention of its staff.

Awesome

Our experience was fantastic! It felt almost like a private tour, as no other tourists joined our group. All the activities and pick-ups were very well organized. The driver and guide always arrived on time, and they were flexible with the arrangements whenever needed. We also appreciated having a free day in the itinerary, which allowed us to take an optional day tour, such as Rainbow Mountain or Huacachina. Overall, it was a wonderful and well-planned experience.

Considerations

I liked the services of the hotel that in addition to breakfast, the restaurant works for lunch and dinner. Accessibility needs to be improved, the very steep ramps and steep staircases often and without marking on the floor.
