I really liked Salinas with Arequipa Explorer - The best visit during my time in Arequipa was to visit Salinas, a charming place, far from the city, we were the first to arrive with the Arequipa Explorer agency to the place and we enjoyed the best landscapes, best shots and a very calm and cozy atmosphere , I recommend this company to visit the Salinas Reserve

A great experience for the price - The tour guide is spectacular, innovative with the way they take the experience to another level, you can count that you will have a great time. He also speaks English and tries to explain everything so you get a good understanding of what’s happening.
I wasn’t expecting to see anything else besides the Salinas place, they took a us to a few different places and it was good.
It was worth every single penny.
Congrats to the team for the great work they do. Would recommend 10/10

Good excursion with Arequipa Explorer - A good excursion, the mobility arrived on time, the guide was very attentive. You can see the salt flat in this season and it was still fascinating, the place is recommended for a half-day tour and the travel agencies are very professional.

Dissapointed - I was disappointed by this tour as the only reason I booked was to take pictures on the lake as shown in the picture with my reflection. Once arriving there, was told that it wasn't possible as it was too windy that day. So basically rode almost 2hrs up a mountain that was very unsettling due to the terrain and steep drops for nothing. I DID enjoy the beautiful views of the Volcanoes but other than that, this was a waste of time.
