Peru Luxury Travel Review: Cusco, Lima, Machu Picchu, Inca Trail Hike, 12-Day Trip

After reaching out to a number of companies, we decided on our Zicasso travel partner to help us plan our trip to Peru. Our travel agent immediately put us at ease and quickly understood what we were looking for. She then put together an itinerary. The final result was an amazing combination of adventure, exploration, and history.

While we were in the planning stage, we reached out to her with a million questions. She answered each query with great detail and much patience. Every aspect of our trip was taken care of: planes, trains, automobiles, as well as tickets, reservations, and fabulous recommendations for local restaurants. Any questions we had in the country were answered promptly and thoroughly.

From the moment we landed in Cusco to the moment we took off from Lima to go home, the only thing we had to worry about was setting our alarm to be ready for our pick-up. All our drivers and guides were on time, friendly, and professional. We absolutely loved our time in Peru. Our guides were all fabulous.

A special shout-out to our guide in the Sacred Valley. He spent five days with us and taught us about his love for the Incan culture and Pachamama. His dedication and love for what he does was beautiful and comforting. He timed everything perfectly so we arrived at key places at the best times. He even carried my backpack for me when I was struggling.

We embraced learning about the Incan culture and were lucky enough to have a shaman and his wife perform a marriage ceremony for us in The Temple of the Stars, all of it arranged by our travel team. No detail was too small. The personal touch was just beyond our expectations. It was like visiting two old friends.

The hotels were great, each unique to the area. Our tour operator meticulously went over all our hotel options with us, patiently helping us decide which one was just right for us. We loved them all. Our place in Lima was just what we asked for: romantic, hip, and delightful.

This will be a trip we always remember. Thanks to our Zicasso travel partner for planning the perfect vacation and making it happen. We have already recommended them to a few of our friends. We can’t wait to go back ourselves.

Viva el Peru!
