Everything was amazing. Loved the ocean breeze on the boat. Getting to see all the islands creatures. As well as the thrill of dune buggying and sandboarding. One of the best moments on the trip

If you are ever looking for a fun, exciting and memorable tour then definitely book with Peru Hop! We did some amazing activities and had excellent food and the wine at the vineyard was also amazing, we purchased 5 bottles! Also big shout out to to our guide Ana! She was very informative, has amazing energy and knows how to make sure the group get to places on time and leave on time! If you ever book with Peru Hop ask for Ana and also ask for their driver Miguel, he got us to our destination safe and promptly on time! My wife and I came down from North Carolina for our honeymoon and we would definitely come back!
