Great experience! - We traveled with Peru Responsible for some stops of our trip and the organization was impeccable. The agency recommended authentic and well-kept experiences, such as the mountain of Pallcoyo in Cusco, a beautiful alternative and much less crowded than Vinicunca, and two days on Lake Titicaca, with overnight stay in Taquile with Felipe’s family, with whom we had a great time. We then continued with three days in the Salar de Uyuni, all perfectly organized. The local contact person has always been helpful, precise and punctual. A serious and reliable agency, which we recommend without hesitation!

Yeah, great! - Since Italy the organization of the private tour has been perfect, they have fulfilled our every request. We did an 18 day tour and everything was perfect, from transfers to speaking guides in Italian. Managed very well on time and with great advice on where to eat. A very well-proven tour operator

Authentic Peru in family - We spent 15 days in southern Peru with our 10 and 13 year old children, we visited parks and nature reserves such as the Ballestas Islands, Acatama Desert, places of archaeological interest (Nasca, Arequipa, Inca Valley, Moray etc..) and stayed at the community of Taquile on Lake Titicaca, Cusco, Arequipa, Lima, all organized with extreme care and precision with helpful and efficient staff. We lived a daydream, thanks to Guido, Andrea who made everything even more beautiful, authentic and engaging ❤️ See you next adventure, Great Peruresponsible!

Peru - We were in Peru for (unfortunately) only two weeks in September, purchased the flight no more than 2 weeks before and immediately contacted Peru Manager to plan our trip with our 11 year old son. We have always liked road trips and last minute trips, planned on site day by day by ourselves, but Peru has so many things to see with enormous distances that alone we would not have had enough time and we would have missed so many experiences that we have all experienced from first to last. We traveled from the coast to the Andes, every day in a different place, excluding Cusco where we spent 3 nights being centrally located to reach various wonders that absolutely should not be missed, we met exceptional people who proudly showed us the beauty and culture of this country. With Responsible Peru it was possible to do everything, with the maximum freedom to travel alone but with all travel and accommodation planned and organized to perfection. Our guides were all exceptional and highly trained, the accommodations far exceeded our expectations. The aspect that we liked most is the perception that was later confirmed, of traveling with an ethical organization that is sensitive to respect for places, people and the conservation of cultural and natural heritage, in short, the opposite of mass tourism which if on the one hand it brings economy, on the other it is destructive. Here, the experience that confirmed what was previously only a perception was the visit to the island of Taquile, a place where time has stopped but where you will find incredible humanity, made up of hospitality and small gestures full of meaning. We were guests of Cecilio's family, to whom I wish a thriving tourist hospitality business because he deserves it all, everyone was very nice, my son played chess with his, his wife and mother-in-law prepared a dinner for us that seemed more like a banquet , they showed us the whole island and all the activities on which their life is based, they made us feel at home. Absolutely highly recommended!

Excellent experience. - We met Peru by chance, in the sense that we got to them through acquaintances. I must say that right from the start (travel organisation) they proved to be very efficient, and this was also the case during our long trip (long because we did 23 days). Transfers - hotels - excursions and internal flights All organized to perfection. even the "guide misunderstanding" (that he only spoke Spanish and English) was resolved promptly. Highly recommended for anyone who wants to get to know Peru. Very well organized and serious. RATING 10.

Peru and Bolivia on the road - We made a 3 week trip between Peru and Bolivia assisted by Peru Responsabile, in particular my compliments go to Sara who has designed and modified the classic tour itinerary to respond to all our requests. We started with a very precise paper program that we brought with us, explaining point by point what we would do every day. We had free days to explore the cities and days of planned trips per minute with very kind guides who spoke Spanish, English and Italian. Everything went very smoothly, on the spot we still had Peruvian numbers to contact to ask for information and clarification in case of doubt. Unfortunately Peru is going through a bad period as far as tourism is concerned (because of political problems this winter) but I assure you that in the period we were there (May 24th-June 13th) we never had problems, never saw any disturbances or had any setbacks. Peruvians are a very kind and super welcoming people, we never felt a danger. The rule of common sense always applies as in every country you go to visit. Highly recommended, the trip of a lifetime.

An unforgettable experience - An unforgettable experience; Peru is something wonderful, with all its landscapes, its colors, the kindness and hospitality of the people who live there. Special thanks go to the responsible Peruvian organization that contributed with its team to make this holiday even more special; prompt and tensive in finding and meeting our every single need. We say goodbye to Peru bringing home a beautiful memory! Thank you Francis and to Peru responsible!

Roll your eyes at the sky! - Duly state that staying (and staying overnight) on the island of Taquile is not an experience for everyone. You need a spirit of adaptation and -in cold temperatures- a few more layers of clothing. But if you are willing to get involved and give up some comfort, indescribable and moving is the beauty that you may be lucky enough to see. The island of Taquile is a still pristine paradise, where the crystal clear blue water of Lake Titicaca blends with clear sky. And it is precisely the sky that I invite you to look at once night falls. I will never forget the spectacle of the constellations and the Milky Way that I had only dreamed of or looked at in books until then. Just as I will not forget the sincere kindness and genuine hospitality of the hosts who welcomed us and treated us very well.
