A fantastic experience (more)Rene Uys
Many memorable and exciting parts but for me I enjoyed seeing the wonderful varied landscapes from cloud forest to antiplano, coastal dessert to volcanic

From
£1,680
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
The Royal Inca Trail, without doubt was the highlight of the holiday. The view of Machu Picchu as you get to the Sun Gate Temple is quite something else!!
Tips?
To be prepared for altitude sickness, but it does dissipate after a day or two. Pack light. You really don't need to take a lot, and there is a good laundry service at the hotels. If you get an outer room at Cusco, be prepared for noise as the traffic is quite persistent all night, and they like to use the... (more)Peter Clements
From
£1,650
excluding flights
Our trip across Peru definitely benefitted local communities, because much of our travel was hosted by them. (more)Simon McArthur
The whole experience was superb - but if I had to pick one it was arriving at Macchu Pichu at 5.00pm after a day's hike to find it empty (it closes at 5.00pm so everyone had left). An empty Macchu Pichu was an unexpected surprise. (more)Ric Pimental
From
£3,035
excluding flights
Memorable parts?
All of Peru was memorable, but especially ski lift at Kuelap and the archaeological sites with guides.
Tips?
Take layers for clothes and nothing smart!
Local benefits?
Yes. We used local hotels and restaurants as well as local guides.
Overall rating?
Excellent. Good value with like-minded companions who were interested in all aspects of Peru. (more)Megan Price
From

The luxury train from Cusco to Puno and Titicaca Lake and the floating Islands were the most memorable parts of our holiday. (more)Rene Tastet
I had a wonderful holiday and would definitely book through Responsible Travel again. (more)Margaret Barilone
The trip up to Machu Puchi, our guide was very knowledgeable and stopped to let us drink in the pure awesomeness of it all and when we reached the top the feeling was surreal and brought not just a lump to my throat but a tear to my ear. (more)John Hawkins

My favourite part of the holiday was sailing down the Amazon river for the first time - I got goosebumps! However, generally, the best thing about the trip was
the people - Joel, our guide on the Inca trail was very knowledgeable... (more)Jemma Paek

From
£1,295

One of the best I have had, a truly wonderful experience...the trip to Machu Picchu stands out just because it is such an iconic place, but the rainforest, the desert, lake Titicaca, Cusco, Colcha Canyon, were all brilliant places to visit. (more)David Greaves
The holiday was superb from start to finish and far exceeded our expectations. The expected highlights of Macchu Picchu etc lived up to expectations with the remaining destinations visited exceeding them (rainforest... colca canyon and sacred valley).

From

The Inca trail with it's altitude challenge, great food, vistas and memorable porter feats stand out.
Tips?
The Absolute Peru package is about being outside; outside everyday comforts and the usual city sightseeing. So be open to a holiday full of memorable experiences.
Local benefits?
Everywhere we went I was very conscious of the fact that we are directly supporting the local communities by eating in local markets, staying in local b&bs and generally transacting... (more)Riaan Breedt
From
£4,245
including UK flights
Memorable parts?
EVERYTHING - it was just great!
Tips?
To inform themselves very early (6 month before booking) to get the most out of it. We therefore had the best holidays ever and people we met on our tour were just jealouse, because we could do all the cool stuff (we had organised the permits for Huayna Picchu, the Trek to Huchuy Qosqo etc.)
Local benefits?
Yes I do
Overall rating?
Great! (more)Barbara Buchegger
From

Lots of great adventures, hard to pick a winner. Snorkelling in the Galapagos and meeting penguins and turtles is amazing, but then completing the Inca Trail
section to reach Machu Picchu is rather good too. And then you can't ignore the Amazon rainforest or the Bolivian salt-flats.
Tips?
Plan the kit well. From hot days by the equator, to sub-zero temperatures up in the Andes, from torrential downpours on the Inca Trail to blazing reflected
sunshine on the salt-flats,... (more)David Rogers

Seeing Machu Picchu for the first time from the sun gate on the 1 day Inca trail walking tour. Crossing the salt flats and altiplano in the 4x4 vehicles. Both were incredible! And the guides that we had for both were excellent, providing great commentary. (more)Karen Soppitt
I loved every minute of my tour, but seeing Machu Picchu with your own eyes takes some beating, I have been to 5 of the seven wonders of the world now, and Mach Picchu is the best. (more)Michael Dickerson

I think the most memorable part of the holiday was doing the mini Inca trail after learning just how much of an impact the Incas made in Peru being able to walk along the original tracks they used and build by hand was truly amazing!
Tips?
Be prepared that some days are very long, early mornings and sometimes there are quite a few flights in one day. It’s a jam packed itinerary but so so so worth it!

Machu Picchu was definitely a major highlight, but upgrading to the Belmond in Iguazu was amazing and memorable.

loved every one!

Yes, especially in Peru. We actually attended the children's program at the Ninos Meloc hotel.

Probably our trip to the Galapagos Islands. The Amazon and Inca trail weren't far behind though!
Tips?
Think about what you want to do, where you want to go and just give South America a go!
Local benefits?
It definitely benefited the local people and I would say that the hotels etc were doing their best to reduce environmental impacts whilst supporting conservation. I'd say it's very hard to do when economy drives expansion and growth.
