  • South Peru: Backpacker Special - 18 Days reviewer 1
    · January 26th, 2023
    My friend and me travelled in the difficult situation of protests in peru, so many roads and places were closed. Unuraymi Expeditions did the best for our stay, was well informed and flexible when situations changed quickly. The guides had good knowledge and we felt save all the time. We recommend it and would do it again.

    - Rating on Peru, 5 star. A beautiful county. Each place I visited was beautiful and breathtaking. - Rating on the Solo traveler arrangement, poor. Before the trip, I've informed I am a solo female traveler and paid for the additional cost for my own tent, but I didn't get my own tent and needed to share the tent with the male guide for 5 nights. - 1 of the tours (Ica) was 90% Spanish 10% English. It made it difficult to follow the tour. Rest of the group tours were good. - An additional camping tour (3 days 2 night) was re-arranged late, 3 days after my trip in Peru. This added camping tour was without horseman and cook (only myself and the guide) which was unexpected. The guide carried most of the camping equipment but I still needed to carry more weight, which was exhausting. - Rating on the the cook and horseman for the 2nd camping tour, 5 stars.
