Mari Jun, 2024 VerifiedThis was my 4th G Adventures trip and my first in South America. Amazing experience l, I'd highly recommend this trip and destination for a shorter stay in Peru and without hiking. Our CEO Leonardo was amazing. The other CEOs were great as well. Looking forward to another G Adventures trip in the future! I've travelled with G Adventures before. Great mix of culture, fun and smaller group sizes.
