Northern Peru also deserves to be visited - The countryside of Moche, the pyramids of the sun and moon, Chan Chan as well as the archaeological complex of Huaca Rajada (the tombs of the Lord of Sipan) are still quite unknown but impressive. In addition, we could visit two completely different but equally interesting cities: Trujillo, colonial city "provincial" and Chiclayo, modern city -with its "model market"-, and very lively. Our guide, Luis, not only has extensive knowledge on all subjects but also expresses himself in very good French. It's exciting. It also managed perfectly the setbacks related to air traffic and adapted to all the situations that resulted from it.

Culture & local food tour in Trujillo, Peru - Even though that we have to change our tour plan but we were well informed. Louis is friendly & funny, he told us about the pre-Inca history of the area. Visiting a restaurant to show us how the Ceviche was made and taste the Pisco Sour.
