Peru For Less Reviews

Thank you, Rylee, for making this once in a lifetime trip so special. Rylee was very patient and helpful as we made many adjustments and changes prior to the trip to ensure we were able to see and do everything that was important to each person in our travel group. None of us, nor anyone we know has ever travelled to the Amazon, so we did not even know where to start and Peru for Less took care of everything. This trip was to celebrate our son graduating with his bachelor's and getting into medical school; it was an achievement that took years of sacrifice and hard work, and we wanted the trip to be perfect for him. It was an amazing experience that is not something you do every day. We have traveled to many different places, but there was something extra special about the breathtaking beauty of the comparatively untouched natural world of the amazon rain forest. Thanks again for everything!

Our trip to South America was amazing and unforgettable. I would rate Peru For Less a 10 out of 10 and would definitely recommend it. Peru for Less arranged our travel to Cusco, the Sacred Valley, the Amazon Rainforest vis Puerto Maldonado, and Iguazu Falls, and fit it around our own travel arrangements to Buenos Aires. Every aspect of the trip, including the transfers, reservations for hotels, trains, and tours, ran flawlessly, and the people were courteous and helpful. The tour guides were super friendly, knowledgeable and fun. One guide who particularly stood out for her excellence was Nyruth (not sure of spelling...she went by "Ruth"), our guide in the Sacred Valley. We were kept well informed of all the trip details. Finally, our Peru for Less Travel Advisor, Eli, was extremely helpful and patient with my many questions and changes during the planning stages.

Selene created a custom itinerary that matched everything we asked for including Macchu Piccu, Rainbow Mountain, Sacred Valley and a train ride to Puno. All of the arrangements and accommodations and tours went off flawlessly. The Peru for Less even helped us retrieve an iPad we left on a train. Exceptional service!

Peru for Less is amazing at what they do! We have gone on two journeys to South America with them and there is never a detail missed. Our travel advisor, Eli, really takes the stress out of planning the trips of our dreams and I couldn’t ask for a better experience. We will continue to travel with them in the future!

I recommend them to anyone!

Rylee from PeruForLess was fantastic! She was easily available to discuss all aspects and options during the planning our trip to Peru, including the Amazon jungle, Puerto Maldonado, Cusco, Sacred Valley, and Machu Picchu over email or on the phone. Everything was explained clearly by her beforehand, and later by all the tour guides that met us in Peru. Every tour or transfer was on-time and arranged exactly as promised.

The guides and staff in Peru were all also wonderful, friendly, knowledgeable, and easily reachable by WhatsApp at all hours. I give a particular shout-out to Stefany and Fabricio in Cusco who were so supportive when one of our traveling members became ill for three days in the middle of our trip.

I wholeheartedly recommend PeruForLess for any travelers to Peru. They took very good care of us!

I have no idea how I found Peru For Less online when I was starting to plan our trip, but all I can say is I hit the jackpot. Everything ran like a well greased wheel. Extremely organized. Every meeting point was on time and perfect. And we always felt safe. Our trip was absolutely magnificent with breathtaking views and we even managed the breathing challenge. We range in age from 60-73 and did all types of excursions, including dune buggies, sand boarding, Ziplining, riding in a speed boat, trains, planes and climbing steps in the ruins. In 10 days we traveled from Lima to Paracus to Huacachina, to Cusco to the Sacred Valley, to Machu Picchu, and to Lake Titicaca. I would recommend this company Peru For Less to anyone interested in traveling to Peru. Rylee Mcgowan, our travel advisor, was the absolute best with her correspondence, her expertise of the region, answering all my questions every time I emailed her no matter the time or day of the week, and booking everything we asked for. The hotels she offered were all nice, clean, safe, and food offerings were great. We mostly stayed in the Casa Andina hotels. The tour guides were top notch and drivers got us everywhere safely. The four of us are only English speaking, but there was never an issue. Once again, Peru For Less, with travel advisor Rylee Mcgowan.

Grecia Fuentes did a terrific job for my son and me on our August trip to Peru and Bolivia. We only had a week due to my son’s vacation schedule, but we were able to pack a lot into it.
My interest is ancient civilizations, so we first went to Cusco. After seeing Sacsayhuaman, the next day we saw a lot in the Sacred Valley, ending with Ollantaytambo. That was very interesting, then taking the train with the great Vistadome to wonderful Machu Pichu ended the Peru part of our week. Then we flew to La Paz to see Puma Punku and Tiwanaku. Puma Punku is very hard to explain as coming from supposedly very primitive people. I don’t think so.
Grecia had arranged first class hotels and restaurants for us, and the guides were also very knowledgeable. Most of our tours had just me, my son, and our guide. We could ask questions and interact directly with our guide the whole time.
Bottom line: if you want to arrange a great tour of Peru, contact Grecia with Peru for Less.

Peru For Less organized our trip to Machu Picchu, the entire process was a 5 Star experience. From planning the trip to standing atop the Andean mountains the whole experience could hardly have been better. The itinerary planning was great! We had an assigned agent and she was professional at all times, communicating at all aspects of the trip preparation. The itinerary was completely custom to our needs, adding hotel and shuttles wherever the needs came up. One of the best aspects was there hotline, when questions came up during our trip we were able to call or message their hotline and they got us answers and resolved any problems we had within minutes. This was a huge reason for our appreciation of Peru for Less. The hotels, shuttles and guides provided to us were at every turn exactly what we expected and more. Peru for Less gets my enthusiastic 5 star recommendation and I will check them out first for any future trips to Latin America.

I can’t thank you enough for helping me pull off the trip of a lifetime! Rylee was patient with me throughout the planning process, even when I made more than a few changes to be able to accommodate the opportunity to see more of this wonderful country. Every single aspect of our trip was well-planned and executed. Our guides and drivers were on time (actually early), extremely knowledgeable and fun to be with! Everything was perfect which really took the worry out of traveling and allowed us to focus on making lifetime memories. Thank you to all who made this happen for us!

We had planned a family trip and had to cancel due to an emergency. Then - with 11 days to go, we decided to reschedule. Peru for Less was FABULOUS. Eli worked with me on our timeline and ensured that we could see everything we had initially set out to see... only more! The organization was seamless and the on-the-ground support was excellent. ALL of our guides at each of our ports of call were excellent, true cultural historians which made the trip all the better. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

I am not a type that normally praises experiences of a trip. And If I do, it is normally more constructive criticism. But, I truly must be honest and state that the Peru Trip, by "Peru for Less" planned specifically by Rylee, was exceptional. It was so immaculately planned, coordinated and executed that we hardly had anything to complain about but rather admire the sheer professionalism at its best. The Transport Vehicles/Vans were clean and comfortable, and the drivers were very mindful of our safety maneuvering through hectic traffic, the guides were superb and patient, ensuring we appreciated the perspective, be it historic or otherwise. The communication and coordination was seamless, and we managed to experience and visit the best of Peru hassle free. We all six of us felt this was very much our top😁 memorable trip. Thanks to Rylee.

I LOVED traveling with Peru For Less. I have traveled quite a bit, and I have never had such a completely positive experience! Every single detail was carefully planned and communicated to us. Every single hotel, guide, driver, was extremely professional, friendly, prompt, and knowledgeable. Our travel consultant, Eli Cabrera, did an amazing job of planning a trip that was completely customized to our requests. She responded quickly and professionally to my many messages. She planned a perfect mix of private and shared tours, hotels in city centers and more relaxed atmospheres, and an amazing array of transportation options to get us into some truly remote locations. I never could have planned this trip myself - her comprehensive knowledge of each city was very apparent, and she made sure we were able to see every noteworthy sight and do every possible activity in each location. Every single guide employed by Peru For Less was prompt, incredibly knowledgeable, flexible, friendly, and so passionate about sharing their country with us. Every single hotel was beautiful, spotlessly clean, staffed by very attentive and outgoing workers, and in amazing locations. We had a 100% positive experience, and I highly recommend Peru For Less with no hesitation. #peruforless

Peru for Less has been an amazing experience! Maribell was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in all aspects of the trip and was able to answer all my questions. There were so many logistics involved and everything was perfectly executed. All of the flights, trains, and buses were arranged and ready for us! The drivers and tour guides picked us up at every location and spoke English very well. The tours were informative and we saw so many amazing locations all over Peru! We even had to make some changes during the trip (my boyfriend got altitude sickness and we needed to go to the clinic which took great care of him). They made accommodations and changes in the itinerary to make sure we could get to where we needed to go. I would highly recommend Peru for Less if you are planning to take a life changing journey!

They nailed exactly what I was looking for on places to stay, tours, timing, and order of activities. When our flight was delayed 30 mins, they were in communication with our driver. Unfortunately, the driver was an hour late from the new time, but PFL kept in contact with me on updates. That was the only thing that went wrong across 10 days. We were always greeted upon arrival and appreciated the itinerary put together. All of the tour guides were good but some were outstanding. It felt luxurious and stress-free; I’ve never come back from a vacation feeling recharged like this. Remember to understand your itinerary beforehand and as well as when your meals will be.

PeruforLess provided everything we needed for a smooth easy vacation in Peru. They booked our travel, transportation, hotels, guides, tickets, and even a dinner for our group of 8 people. Our guides all spoke English and we just had to follow the itinerary. It was great!

Our recent trip to Peru was truly outstanding thanks to the planning and scheduling by Selene at Peru for Less. We visited Lima, the Amazon, Cusco, the Sacred Valley, and Machu Picchu, and it was our best trip ever. Our guides and drivers were all efficient and polite, the hotels that Selene reserved for us were amazing, and we really can't say enough kinds words about our experience. Thank you!

There was someone there to help at every critical juncture, with enough freedom to make changes and to try things on our own. And everything was arranged so perfectly. All of the guides and hotel people were on the ball and even went to extremes to make sure our stay in Peru was excellent. I cannot give PFL enough praise for how well everything was executed. A special call-out to Eli Cabrera, who set it all up!! And to Alejandro of the hotel Casa Andina Premium in Cusco!

We had the BEST trip!! Arianna did the most amazing job planning it for us.

Our favorite hotel was the one in the Sacred Valley. We watched Aladdin outside on a projector with the Andes in the background. It was INCREDIBLE! We had so many wonderful tour guides that I can't pick just one favorite. Juan Luis in the Amazon was great. He was so knowledgeable and thorough. He took great care with our safety and also made sure that we were able to fully experience the Amazon. We also loved our tour guide Valerio who took us on the Inca Trail and Machu Picchu. He was so kind and full of knowledge. We left feeling like we'd made a friend. I think Machu Picchu is an obvious favorite because it's so beautiful and full of history. If I had to choose something else for my favorite, I would say the Amazon and the tours of Incan sites in the Sacred Valley.

We were SO impressed by the communication on our travels. Anytime I had a question there was someone quick to answer via text. Also, it took so much stress off not having to arrange drivers or anything.

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!
