We had an incredible time on our trip, our first with Alexander + Roberts. Peru was simply beautiful and our guide Carlos - what can I say, we want him as our guide for all of our future trips, wherever they may be! Highly recommended.

Peru is a stunning country. A+R's choice of hotels and attentive tour guides was outstanding. Carlos in Cuzco (and beyond) is probably the best tour guide in the world. He is knowledgeable, attentive, funny, well-connected and always had a Plan B (sometimes C). Machu Picchu blew our minds - we had looked forward to it for so long we feared it might be a letdown - not a chance. Words cannot describe the majesty and sheer awesomeness - and don't fear a bit of rain in the forecast - the clouds and mist simply add to the mystical magic. As this was our first guided tour (we usually do our own bookings), we were also apprehensive about who we might be sharing the journey with for so many days. Not to worry, we had an awesome group of eight total travelers and we all got along wonderfully - we'd travel anywhere with this group! Thanks to A+R and Carlos (and Diana in Lima!) for an amazing adventure that we will treasure forever.

The guides were terrific. Gustavo was waiting for us at the airport even though our flight was delayed and we arrived in the middle of the night. Diana was so much fun. She showed us around Lima, took us to the Larco Museum, and to lunch and dinner in lovely restaurants. We spent most of our time with Carlos. He is truly exceptional in his knowledge of Peruvian history, and culture. His sense of humor and warmth added so much to our trip. Everywhere he goes people greet him by name, he seems to be universally loved and admired. I believe everyone in our group loves and admires him now as well. The accommodations, sights and experiences were all truly top notch, it was a great trip!

We've traveled independently and on cruises, but never a small group tour. I was pleasantly surprised, and this was one of my most memorable and favorite trips ever! The hotels were stunning, the Bingham train was a blast. Of course Macchu Pichu was the star, it was so much more than I could have imagined. What really set this trip apart was the people. The guides were superlative; they were all so caring and attentive. Most of our time was with Carlos, he is the best thing since sliced bread. I wish he could come with us everywhere we travel. Also, the small group aspect worked out great. We had a group of only 8 people. They were all so much fun and added a lot to the trip. This was our first trip with Alexander and Roberts, but it won't be the last. We're planning our next trip now!
