★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 146 reviews · 15 hours · from $27

Review of Arequipa’s Colca Canyon day tour: condors, Andean villages, hot springs, meals, costs, altitude tips, and practical advice.

“María was a great guide. She kept us informed and interested but didn’t inundate the group with too much information. It is a long day with an early start, and she expertly knew when the group needed some restful time. An amazing way to experience Colca Canyon without having to do the trek with the overnight stay. FYI bring small change to tip the alpaca owners for pictures - you will want to get a lot of them!”

Review of the 2-day Puno to Arequipa Colca Canyon tour, with condors, hot springs, Andean wildlife, costs, transport, and practical tips.

“Très belle excusion, beaux paysages. La baignade dans les bains thermaux était également très bien. Le cout des repas n'ėtait parfois pas inclus et les boissons facturées très chères. La qualité des repas proposés ètait très moyenne. Le minibus utilisé pour l'excursion etait complet, c'était compliqué de ranger les valises et paquetages. Il aurait fallu un bus plus grand. Inconvénients compensés par la beauté du site et la chance de voir quelques condors. Mark.”

Review of the Chivay to Puno sightseeing bus, with Andes views, four stops, guide service, comfort details, price, and practical tips.

“The bus was comfortable and the guide was very nice. Once we arrived - a transfer to our hotel was included so that was very handy. We got caught in construction traffic so it took us about 7.5 hours which was a long day but to no fault of them. The thing I was most disappointed with - the listing said that snacks, bottled water and free wifi were included. All of those items were never offered. I planned on getting work done on the bus with the free wifi so this was a huge disappointment! And I had to purchase water at a stop for a high charge because…”
