Review: Luxury Family Trip to Peru, Cusco, Lima, Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, History & Culture

Overall, our travel agent's careful planning made this vacation a total breeze for us to follow. We had a lot of outdoor activities, sightseeing, and cultural experiences with locals and above all, we ate delicious food. Peru is now a culinary heaven for foodies alike!!! Most pleasantly, our agent matched us up with a knowledgeable local tour guide. He guided us through our vacation and took care of all the nuances of travel. This guide is a local Peruvian with strong roots in the community. She understands the ancient Incan culture and history so well and always patiently answered our questions. Our college-aged kids really enjoyed this once-in-a-lifetime adventure as well. I think without her caring personality and guided experience, we wouldn't have enjoyed the trip so much. Our driver was the nicest guy ever who puts a lot of transportation issue at ease for us. All the worries about altitude, logistics, and food were well taken care of by the team! We just had to show up and enjoy the day.

Prior to the trip, we heard so many stories about the high-altitude sickness, but our agent planned our trip in such a way that it did not affect us at all, and we were able to enjoy the entire vacation thoroughly!
