Fascinating history tour - This tour was great!! Our guide spoke good English. She had a lot of historical information about the sites we saw. It was fascinating to learn about the history behind the buildings in Arequipa.

Routa de sillar - Terrible: the car had no air conditioning and it was a really hot and bumpy road. The guide, although nice, did not tell much. We were expected to give although small but still coins everywhere.
The was no explanation of the excursion whatsoever. If I knew what I was buying I wouldn’t have spent the money.
