1. What was the most memorable or exciting part of your holiday?
My first glimpse of the archeological site at Machu Picchu. It was truly magnificent and my guide was excellent and brought to life the history of the place.2. What tips would you give other travellers booking this holiday?
I was advised to spend a few days in Cusco to adjust to the high altitude and I would recommend that travellers do this. I met several travellers who came straight from Lima and did not allow time to adjust and were quite ill and did not enjoy the trip. Cusco is a lovely place and has many interesting things to see that relate to Machu Picchu and the Inca empire.3. Did you feel that your holiday benefited local people, reduced environmental impacts or supported conservation?
I booked the holiday through Responsible Travel to ensure that would be the case. The hotels that were chosen were all environmentally friendly and employed local people. Some had solar panels and water filtration systems and used local produce.4. Finally, how would you rate your holiday overall?
I had a wonderful holiday and would definitely book through Responsible Travel again.John Hawkins review 5 Oct 2015

My aim was to complete the new seven wonders of the world before I was 60, this was the last one we had to do so a dream come true. Heather tailored our holiday to meet all our needs, visit all the places we wanted to go within a very tight timeline and cost, she was brilliantHoliday Reviews
You can trust Responsible Travel reviews because, unlike many other schemes, reviews can ONLY be written by people who we have verified have been on the holidays. In addition, we don't run these holidays ourselves - our only interest is giving you the best independent advice.
