What Our Customers Say
Write a ReviewMy fiancé and I spent 2 weeks in Peru! We booked 10 days of activities in Tambopata and Cusco with Adios, we had a wonderful experience! Our guide was knowledgeable, attentive and helpful throughout our journey! Despite the last min change to our Inca trail hike closure, the guide was able to find other breathtaking hiking trails for us to explore. We would take another trip with Adios again in the future!
Adios Adventure was really helpful in figuring out all of the reservations for Machu Picchu. They were very responsive to questions and very clear (if you are dealing with the reservations of getting the right Circuit, getting various tickets they can be of enormous help). They also have a lot of helpful general info about Peru. We had Cesar as a guide for Machu Picchu and he was terrific, knowledgeable, warm and incredibly helpful. Can't recommend them more highly -- they were awesome!
The Adios Adventure Travel team will help curate and execute your bucket list vision to Cusco and the Sacred Valley! From the most up to date information about the MP circuits on the website to genuine and interesting guides, Adios is above and beyond. Our Peru pod (my sister, my boyfriend and I) were so grateful to have Vidal as our Sacred Valley guide especially on the Inca trail to and through Machu Picchu. Through guided conversations we learned so much about the culture, history and natural wonders of the area. Vidal was also an excellent motivator on the trail with it's many steps ensuring breaks and a good pace! Our trip with Angela to Palccoyo was nothing less than amazing. Her knowledge and connection to the mountains is inspiring. Thank you to Jacquie and Heather for all the good info on the website (packing lists, bathroom info, climate, culture and much much more) as well as your organization and communication. I look forward to another Adios Adventure in the future!
Adios Adventure Travel did an outstanding job of developing and facilitating a tour of Machu Picchu for us from our cruise ship. I requested several changes to the original tour plan and Adios made them all happen. I asked to fly from the port prior to Lima (Trujillo) so we could have an extra day to ensure our return to Lima before our sailing. I requested that we stay overnight in Aguas Calientes to avoid an extended stay at 11,000+ feet in Cusco. I also requested a tour of the Sacred Valley on our third day while transferring to Cusco for our evening flight to Lima. Heather Corona, the Adios representative, made it all happen. Heather was always pleasant and returned every call immediately. Thank you, Heather! Our in-country point of contact, Vidal, was always available and helpful. Our in-country guide, Angela, made this the most enjoyable and informative tour we have ever taken. I can’t say enough about how great Angela made our trip. As a native Incan, she related the true Incan culture and spirit. Her understanding and spirit got 4 over-70 tourists with a combined 4 knee surgeries and 2 back surgeries through the most difficult loop (2) at Machu Picchu. A rare feat for her as well as us. Angela took us to the most wonderful restaurant in Aguas Calientes where everyone raved about their meal. She made our trip through the Sacred Valley memorable and informative. Thank you, Angela! Our whole tour went off without a glitch. I highly recommend Adios Adventure Travel.
We visited Machu Picchu in April this year. Heather from Adios adventures was excellent with advice prior to us leaving the UK to ensure we got the tickets we wanted and arranged for a guide to spend the day with us. Angela (our guide) met us at our hotel in the village and was with us the whole time visitng the site. Her knowledge was excellent and she explained everything to us perfectly. Angela was also friendly and easy to talk to which is important when spending about 6 hours with someone. I'd highly recommend Adios Adventrue Travel. Just make sure you buy the bus tickets from village to site the day before. Also the vistadome train from Ollantaytambo is amazing!!
My original decision to use Adios Adventure Travel was based on how informative and helpful their website is but I realized as I started working with them that a good website was just the start of a long list why Adios is amazing. While still in the planning stages Heather was responsive, helpful and a great communicator. The logistics getting from Lima to Machu Picchu (MaPi) are complicated and Heather helped me feel confident that I had chosen the right schedule. As a fellow photographer she was instrumental in helping me decide what time to visit MaPi would be to get the best photos and she did not steer me wrong. She went above and beyond in so many ways. I also worked a little with Vidal, one of the owners. He was also fast to respond and helped connect us with our tour guide once we reached Aguas Calientes. There was not one time through the handoff that I felt unsure of what our next steps were. I cannot praise our guide Angela enough. We could not have been matched with a better tour guide and human being! We enjoyed spending our two days with her. She is a wonderful person and we loved all her stories, information and insights into life in Peru and MaPi. My husband and I get "married" in every country we visit (Peru makes 5) and Angela handled our impromptu "ceremony" like a champ. She picked the perfect spot and shared from her heart. Her beautiful words incorporated Peruvian tradition and a blessing on our love that it would have the eternalness of Machu Picchu. It was a moment better than any scripted movie! They had our backs every step, flight, car ride, train trip and bus ticket along the way. If we ever find another opportunity to work with Adios Adventure Travel again you can be sure we wouldn't even consider another travel team.
We knew we were in great hands with Adios travel before we even left for our trip. They were very thorough and we had great communication with phone calls and emails and was given an exact and detailed itinerary.
We spent four amazing days with our guide Angela in the Machu Picchu area. We cannot say enough about Angela, who was knowledgeable, super friendly, spoke English perfectly and just blended with our family. We loved spending time with her so much that we invited her to have family dinners with us each night. She went out of her way to get us tables in restaurants when we had no reservations and even helped us with the police when my husband lost his passport.
She just went above and beyond what was required of her as a guide. Thank you, Angela.
One of the additions to our Machu Picchu tour was traveling into the mountains and spending an afternoon with a farming family at their home. They greeted us with music and dancing and treated us to an authentic meal, which was huge and so delicious. We left there with hugs and kisses and wonderful memories.
Again, we highly recommend Adios travel for any of your tour needs. You will not be disappointed.
This was the second time that we have booked trips to Peru with Adios Adventure Travel and once again all went exactly as planned according to our 12 day itinerary. No issues whatsoever from our initial contact and trip planning with Jacquie and Heather to our pick up and drop off at Cusco Airport at trip’s end with Vidal. While in Cusco we were booked into the Palacio del Inka hotel where we were well taken care of. I can tell you that the price is money well spent. The food, customer service and rooms were 5stars. If you are experiencing altitude sickness they will immediately bring and administer oxygen to you in your room at no charge (be sure to tip generously however) Vidal once again did an exceptional job of making sure all of our wants and needs were addressed as well as passionately sharing his experiences and knowledge of everything Cusco, Machu Picchu and the Sacred Valley.
The 2nd half of our trip was spent in the rainforest at the lodge at Tambopata Research Center which is on the Tambopata River. We flew from Cusco to Puerto Maldonado which is in the Madre de Dios Region of Peru. Spending several days (and nights) at TRC was life changing and I plan to return a 3rd time just because. Adios Adventure Travel was able to book us in ’the best room ever’ at TRC as well as our previous guide, Fernando. Fernando was born and raised in Puerto Maldonado area, and just as with Vidal in the first portion of the trip, we saw the amazing rainforest with all its wonders through his eyes. As I stated before- life changing. Thank you Vidal, Jacquie & Heather.
Suggestion: If you plan on visiting the rainforest you should go there at the beginning of the trip and then do the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu and Cusco to help you to gradually adjust to the high altitude. Altitude sickness is real and it doesn’t care how old you are or your fitness level. Just saying…
My wife and I spent our last day (10/9/24) in Peru in the Miraflores section of Lima. We also visited Aguas Calientes (Machu Picchu) and Cusco. The Adios Adventure Travel blog was instrumental in my planning and even more helpful was my conversation with Jacqui Whitt.
I booked 2 Cusco tours with Adios Travel: 1 - The Full Day Pisac Archaeological Park + Pachamanca Feast (lunch and weaving demonstration at a family owned farm); 2 - The Cusco Historical Outskirts Hike (Tambomachay - Qenco - Sacsayhuaman). Each tour included our private guide, Hubert and a driver. They picked us up from our hotel each day. Hubert was awesome! He was a very clear communicator and very knowledgeable about the sites and Inca history in general. He moved at our pace and gave the right amount of information in a conversation instead of a long drawn-out presentation.
Lastly, Adios provided us with a pre-departure information summary that included all of our flights, trains, hotels, tours and recommendations for activities/ restaurants in each location. These recommendations were not affiliated with Adios, just great information! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND ADIOS ADVENTURE TRAVEL I've told family, friends and acquaintances to use Adios for any trip to South America
Adios Adventure Travel were terrific to work with and they were completely accomodating and receptive to the complications of modern travel. I highly recommend the US based team and the local domestic team to handle travel plans in Peru.
I recently had the most incredible 7-day private tour with Adios Adventure Travel to the Amazon, Cusco, and Machu Picchu. Heather was fantastic in planning the trip; she was responsive, answered all my questions, and guided me through every detail with patience.
My stay at the Tambopata Eco-Lodge in the Amazon was wonderful. My guide, Magno, was patient and kind, going above and beyond to ensure I saw as many animals as possible. He took the time to share detailed information about each animal and plant we encountered, as well as insights about the native tribes.
In Cusco and Machu Picchu, I had the pleasure of touring with Vidal, who was thoughtful and welcoming from the start. He is a wealth of knowledge about Peruvian culture and history and shared fascinating stories. Vidal tailored the trip to my interests, including a visit to Chinchero, where I could learn about and watch traditional weaving. He also recommended excellent restaurants and local dishes to try. His calming presence, kindness, and expertise made the experience special.
I am so happy I chose to travel with Adios Adventure Travel and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a personalized and beautiful journey through Peru!
Everyone at Adios Adventures made our trip extraordinary! It was our first time traveling abroad so we were nervous. We were picked up at the airport and taken to our Airbnb. We were picked up and taken to amazing places in Peru. We formed relationships with our drivers and guides. Everyone bent over backwards to make our trip extra special. I would choose them every single time we go to Peru. We are telling family and friends to go to Peru not just because of the amazing points of interest but to also be spoiled by Vidal and everyone at Adios Adventures. Thank you just isn't enough!!
