Excellent excursion, highly recommended! - Excellent excursion. Very dedicated and attentive in teaching and publicizing ancestral cultures. The Guide took great care of those little details that make a difference. Runa tours is a very good agency.

Sican and Tucume Pyramids are a must do. - This is a great tour. The guide is extremely knowledgeable and very personable. There aren’t many English tours and this is one you should take. The Sican Museum and Tucume Pyramids are amazing. There is also a little nature walk to look for animals. The tour ends with him sharing the history and a few sights in Lambayeque.

This is one of the best English tours in Peru! - This tour is one of the best in Peru! The guide, Julio, is knowledgeable, friendly, flexible and speaks excellent English. I learned a lot through this tour. It's hard to find the English tour with this price in northern Peru that is not popular for international travellers like southern peru. I high recommend to visit Chiclayo and join the tour!

All in one a great day with Julio - Yesterday we had an amazing and very informative day with our Guide Julio. Julio was an excellent and very knowledgeable guide. We learned a lot about the Sican Culture. I especially liked the museum, the walk to the pyramids and bird watching. Their agency even organized our next trip to Trujillo and a tour to Chan Chan. I absolutely recommend Julio. Thanks for the wonderful day

North Perú tour - Our tailor made trip in North Perú came to an end: an extremely interesting area with vibrant cities and amazing archeological sites/museums. Julio, our guide in the sites/museums, couldn’t be better. He was a well educated, very interesting and funny guy, answering to all of our questions. He was always carrying his camera with him in order to capture bird and wildlife closeups, which he shared with us. We saw even the oldest paintings of Perú in the pyramid of Ventarrón! Thank you! We will come back for new adventures!

A very hot day full of history and interesting facts - It was good, except that there is a lot of sun, there is not much information and more than anything it is something for people who like to walk a lot. I do not recommend going at midday, and if you go take a lot of water and protection from the sun, it is preferable to go in March and April that told me that there is more pleasant weather

Book with someone else - The guide and driver were incredible. I have issue with the tour agency. We booked 2 separate tours with them for Friday and Saturday. Early Friday morning we were told there were not enough people for the tour unless we were willing to pay $23 more for a private tour. We agreed since our options were limited. ASI said, the guide spoke good English and was very informative. We arranged for pickup the following morning. Later that day we were asked for the tour office if we had paid the guide the additional money. I said no because no one instructed us to do so. She asked us to paid the guide the next day. No problem. At 9 pm I received a text saying there were not enough people for today’s tour but they were willing to go out for an additional $23. I declined and asked for a refund, which they promptly gave me. This morning I received an early text telling me they would come by my Airbnb for the remaking $ at 9. At 9:20 someone arrived and texted me she was waiting downstairs and that I needed to have exact change. We have been in Peru for 5 weeks and have booked multiple tours . Tour agencies provide a service. I would not book with this agency again.
