Perfect amount of time for the highlights - The 6 day tour was the right amount of time to see the highlights of Peru. Each day the group attendees might change, depending on the location. Your guide will also change. Nohemi was our guide from day 1 in Cusco and through the end of Machu Picchu in Aquas Calientes. She did an excellent job with the tour, helping with pictures, and getting us on needed transport. The other guides at Humanity Lake and Rainbow Mountain were also great. Be warned, these last two days will start at 4AM and end at 630-7pm. You will also need to walk back to your hotel from the city center those last two days, no hotel drop off. I didn’t know that. For Waman, my only recommendation is to give us a full detailed itinerary on our first day or before we arrive. You generally had no idea what the day might look like until the night before or when you were picked up. This would be helpful to know to plan things better, like dinner. Great tour but give us details sooner.

Unforgetable experience! - We had an amazing six days tour with Waman Adventures. Our tour guide, Wilbert, was very helpful throughout our whole trip, providing detailed information about every place we were visiting. He has scheduled everything perfectly and we were arriving at the sites before they were getting too crowded, so we had plenty of time to enjoy them for ourselves. Thank you for that unforgettable 6 days!

Amazing guide, amazing tour, true peruvian vibe - Me and my friends did the 6 day tour and it was amazing, i feel so content with all those things that we did. It was very well organized, Waman tours have really thought everything for you. We saw many things and learned so much but the most significant of all was our guide Wilbert that made all this experience more awesome. We felt that he is our friend, explaining everything so nice and calm. If a problem occured he would be there to help, and he was answering all our questions. He has a true gift on how to explain and make you feel the true peruvian vibe. Thank you Wilbert😊

AN UNFORGETTABLE EXPERIENCE - Our tour in Peru was absolutely amazing! Our guide, Wilberg, was incredibly professional. He shared so much history and information about everything we saw, keeping it interesting without overwhelming us. He was to the point, very funny, friendly, and super supportive. Choosing Waman Adventures was a wise decision—they had everything organized, so we didn't have to worry about a thing. Highly recommended Waman Adventures and Wilberg as your guide.

Amazing Trip with No Complaints - Waman Adventures is THE agency to trust your excursion to Peru with. We were always given early notice of what was to be expected the next day. The agency itself is very supportive with any/all of your inquiries, even if they don't pertain to the scheduled trip itself. They clearly know what they're doing as we avoided the big crowds for the hikes to Rainbow Mountain & Humantay lake by leaving early, and ended up catching the best of the views. The agency definitely does it's best to ensure their customers have a great time. Finally, a big shout out to our guides Freddie and Wilbur, who were incredibly accommodating, entertaining, knowledgeable and caring during our trips.

Waman trips for all ages - A dream trip. Peru was the destination of my mother's dreams. 66 year old lady. The entire team was very friendly and approachable. Freddy is not only a guide who has a lot of knowledge, but he helps us connect with each of the destinations we visit. He treated us like family and always made sure that my mother and the visits were as close as possible. Comfortable for her.
