First time users who highly recommend Kim Kim! We took a complete flier on this with no personal recommendations and just a little bit of research and we feel like we hit the jackpot! Started right off the bat with planning the trip with Johannna - a US based Peruvian native who learned about our family needs and likes and matched it to her knowledge of the country to work with us to plan a vacation that perfectly suited us. Then then the local travel company, CusiTravel, was incredibly attentive to any small thing that arose - they answered the phone immediately, knew who i was, wanted to ensure we were having a good time and worked to make any adjustments we requested. Our local guide, Edwin, was exceptional and our driver, David, was terrific. Edwin really made our trip special - his native Quechuan language and history and pride in his country was infectious. He was deeply knowledgeable, attentive to all of our likes/dislikes/interests and tailored the tours and days around it. And he was unflappable when we had forgotten some passports back in Cusco. Easy going, nothing ever a problem. we enjoyed sharing some meals with him and learning a bit more about him and his family. The tours and sites we planned were perfect, the hotels and restaurants for the most part were great and what could have been a very complicated trip with different hotels/transports/connections/permits was all seamless to us. Not a care in the world! We will use KimKim again for our more complicated/adventurous trips and can't recommend them enough!

Ollantaytambo

this was an amazing resort in an extremely remote location. The accommodations were special and lovely. we had a warm and personal greeting and reception with a pisco punch when we arrived that really set a nice mood of specialized comfort. the main restaurant/bar etc was absolutely beautiful. the food was average. we unfortunately had a later-than-expected arrival so we missed truly taking advantage of the whole resort. the spa/sauna was already booked when we got there which my adult kids were looking forward to. We left at the crack of pre-dawn for machu picchu so missed really enjoying the place. Got a great view of the milky way before we put our heads down! and we had a lovely boxed breakfast waiting for us to take on our early early train. Lovely service and lovely resort. spend more time there. FYI Ollantaytambo looks VERY touristy and almost honky tonky.

a bit more of a budget hotel but good location. we stayed, left to sacred valley, and stayed on our way back. first room was small and incredibly noisy all night on the plaza. the second time we had a much bigger room in the back of the hotel and much less noisy. The breakfast oddly on the top floor was good, basic. the bellhops/porters and cleaning staff and breakfast staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. oddly the front desk staff was less so. they did not go out of their way to be helpful but were fine. the location is great and central. and they do a great job of taking care of your bags while you're in between coming/going. Might have looked for a bit more luxury but great location and served our needs at a great price.

Fantastic intro to the city and to Peruvian foodie culture. We had Amy who was SPECTACULAR! loads of energy, attentive to everyone, loaded with history and current events in Peru. The places they took us were each so different from the lucuma milkshake shack to the market with a box of fresh produce to Limana Bar which was a fantastic high end restaurant to the restaurant inside the ruins - it was top notch and interesting and FUN! Do NOT eat breakfast if you're doing a morning tour! Can't recommend the tour and AMY enough!!

We had the extreme pleasure of having Edwin as our guide from Cusi Travel. He is a proud Quechuan who loves his history and culture and language and added so much to our trip. The half day tour was great after we had already spent a day in Cusco and found the market and some restaurants and some shops. he delved into some of the more notable historic sites in town and then we went just outside town to some near by ruins where we started to get immersed in the Incan culture. Edwin is informative and goes at the right pace. He is knowledgeable and was great connecting the dots for some of my family who had done some studying on the Incas in preparation for our trip. He was kind in letting us practice our spanish and filling in some gaps. A great afternoon!

Without a doubt one of the highlights of our trip. Everything we put into the itinerary was spectacular and we had a nice mix of Incan sites, markets, llama and alpaca "farms", textile demonstrations (not touristy, felt authentic, spent time with wonderful and interesting local weavers) and lunch in the middle of nowhere in a gorgeous eco-restaurant with amazing vistas and llamas and alpacas to visit with freely roaming the place. The salt mines and moray were our favorites and not to be missed. And extra kudos to Edwin and David who were cool, calm and collected when we realized we had left passports in Cusco and had to retrieve them. They made up the time and we still got to pack everything in without a worry. They could not have been nicer.

Short Inca Trail Day 1: Hiking to Machu Picchu via Chachabamba and Wiñay Wayna
Peru

My family of adult kids were ready for this from the get go. My husband (2 total knees) was upbeat and optimistic. Me, with an 8 month old total knee was optimistic but nervous - would i make it? would i hold everyone back? could i still do this at 62? well the answer was a resounding SO GLAD WE DID IT! not for the faint of heart for sure but you don't need to be an endurance athlete to make it. And there's something special about CLIMBING your way to Macchu Picchu. It was challenging for sure but the views are great and making it to the spectacular but less visited Winya Wayna ruins made it all worth it. Breathtaking! And coming through the Sun Gate and seeing MP from on high was also a real treat. It was long, the steps are hard, listen to your guide and when he tells you to pack and carry 3 liters of water - do it! we started the day on a very early train - lovely ride - a boxed breakfast from the hotel and a little pre-hike snooze. was so glad we had Kim Kim book everything ahead - transport, train, hiking permits. would not have wanted to arrange everything myself. Edwin made sure we got everywhere we needed to be. Again, Edwin was an amazing guide and, on this trip, cheerleader! He never peeped when i needed to stop and catch my breath. he never pushed, only encouraged and distracted with interesting asides about local flora and fauna and history. The team packed a phenomenal travel lunch for us that was enormous and delicious! And Edwin made it a point to take lots of picture for us, even when we were wondering if we'd make it. So glad we did it and proud that we accomplished it. The target is 6-8 hours, we took 7.5, my kids could have done it in 5.

We did Circuit 3 i believe and it was extensive! we got a great view of how MP worked as a city and educational and cultural center. Again Edwin was an amazing guide loaded with even more insights and facts and history. He made MP come alive. Edwin met us early in the morning at a time we all agreed upon - the hotel did a great job of getting our bags to the train later. Edwin knew to hurry is to the very long, waiting morning bus line - went up by bus (made us appreciate how special the hike was the day before) and came down by bus. had lunch in town with Edwin before catching the train to Ollantaytambo where David was waiting with the rest of our luggage and the van back to Cusco. Again would NOT have wanted to manage logistics on this trip without KimKim/Cusi Travel. Made it absolutely stress free and delightful.

This was an experience of a lifetime. We absolutely loved this experience. Edwin, our guide, was amazing and was so great at making us maximize our experience and enjoy the Inca Trail. The porters and team were amazing! They are the "unseen" heroes of hiking the Inca Trai. The hike itself isn't easy, but the experience is priceless. The food was great and it was fun to eat in the "dining tent." There was always more food than we could eat and it was all great!

Hi Matt,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. While I’m happy to hear you enjoyed your experiences in Rio and Mendoza, I’m sorry to learn that you felt communication leading up to the trip didn’t meet your expectations.

To clarify, after initially planning your full itinerary together, you chose to cancel most of the services in order to significantly reduce costs, and ultimately arranged about 80% of the trip independently. I was happy to support that shift so you could stay within your preferred budget. Even so, we remained available and shared a finalized travel program based on the flight information you had confirmed with us—specifically, a July 29th departure from Buenos Aires. When I noticed your Airbnb check-out date appeared earlier than your flight, we reached out to confirm the details, and you affirmed that July 29th was correct.

It wasn’t until July 26th, just a few days before your actual departure when I reached out wishing you a great last few days in Buenos Aires, that you shared your flight was in fact scheduled for July 27th. You opted to coordinate your own transfer at that point, and we immediately processed a full refund for the transfer service we had arranged based on your previously confirmed itinerary.

We truly value each traveler’s experience and always aim to be proactive, but in this case, we relied on the details provided. I’m still glad to hear the guided activities stood out and hope your travels brought meaningful and lasting memories.

Wishing you all the best on your future adventures.

Warmly,

We just returned from what can only be described as the trip of a lifetime—an unforgettable adventure through Peru that exceeded every expectation. From beginning to end, the entire experience was flawlessly planned and executed, allowing us to be fully immersed in the beauty, culture, and magic of this incredible country.

A heartfelt thank you to Kristy Tizon for organizing such an epic journey. Every hotel, transfer, activity, and tour was thoughtfully curated, and her attention to detail made everything seamless. We felt completely supported and taken care of throughout the trip.

Along the way, we met so many wonderful people who made this adventure even more special. Everyone went above and beyond to ensure we had an amazing time—kind, welcoming, and truly passionate about what they do.

A very special shoutout to Flor Bocangel Zuñiga and Carlos, our incredible guide and driver in the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, and the Rainbow Mountains. Flor brought each destination to life with her deep knowledge, professionalism, and warmth. She was incredibly attentive, thoughtful, and quickly became like a family friend. Carlos was equally wonderful—calm, kind, and a highly skilled driver who made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the journey. We couldn’t have asked for a better team!

Our day trip from Lima with Berrios Travel was another standout experience. Huge thanks to our guide Jaime, who was fun, knowledgeable, and engaging, and to Henry, our excellent driver. From Paracas and the Ballestas Islands to a local winery tour and an exhilarating desert dune buggy and sandboarding adventure, it was a day packed with fun and adventure.

For those seeking a thrill, our whitewater rafting trip with River Explorers on the Rio Vilcanota (Class III–IV) near Cusco was an absolute highlight. The group tour was incredibly well organized, exciting, and safe—plus, the included lunch was delicious.

While every destination on this journey was beautiful in its own way, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, and the Rainbow Mountains stood out as truly magical. Each one took our breath away—visually stunning, spiritually moving, and unforgettable. These places have now earned a permanent place among the most cherished and awe-inspiring locations we’ve ever visited.

Peru has absolutely captured our hearts. The people, the history, the food, and the landscapes left a lasting impression. We will treasure these memories forever and are so grateful to everyone who helped make this journey so extraordinary.

Thank you again for making this dream adventure a reality!

Táquile island was not worth the two hour boat ride there and back. It was very similar to things we had already seen and there was no significantly different activity there. Would rather have gone in the city or done a different activity.

Amazing experience! Did not feel like ten hours, lots of good entertainment and food. Service was great and the views were stunning
