Wonderful experience!!! Thank you, Perou voyage!! The operator was always quick to respond via whatsapp and email. The briefing in the previous day was helpful and we were able to ask questions about the trekking, as well as, meet our guide. The operator was able to change the typical itinerary, where you usually sleep in the oásis in Sangalle. We preferred to sleep in Pousada da Glória, so they changed the itinerary for us which was super cool. We had a lovely dinner there and slept well. Our guide was amazing!! :D Onorio :D it was a tough hike for us so it was Perfect for us to have someone Kind, with a sense of humor and someone Who could push us and be firm. The driver and other guides that shared our van were also very nice people. The food was really good and yeah, all in all, we highly recommend this 2 day trek if you're up for a challenge and be amazed by the beauty of the colca canyon <3Honorio was a great guide, he explains very well all about the Colca Canyon. When we booked the tour, Evelyn explains us were going to have an expert french speaking guide who knows everything about the Colca! We spent a nice one day tour in the Colca. Merci!
