Chan Chan most...

Louise_L, Jan 2024

Chan Chan most unbelievable site I’ve ever seen! Staff was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and friendly.

A great tour - not to be missed.

Geoffrey_S, Oct 2023

This was a very full day. My pedometer says I did 12,000 steps. These archaeological ruins leave Machu Pichu for dead. Both sites were very extensive and well preserved. The museum was fantastic even though we were rushed through. The walk around downtown Trujillo was very interesting and the lunch stop was great. The tour leader Julio spoke good English but the guide explaining the sites and museum, Oscar, was very hard to understand. He was very knowledgeable but so hard to understand. The pick up from the cruise ship went well without a hitch.

Historical Chan Chan

Michael_A, Oct 2023

Our guide was very helpful and informative explaining the history of all the sites. We had a great day full of history it was amazing

Did the job

David_G, Jul 2023

As a tour to the Huacas and Chan Chan, the tour did the job., but the whole experience felt a bit tired. I had booked an English language tour; as I was the only English speaker in a group of 8, I had my own guide. Her English was OK, her knowledge was excellent. She was informative and polite; after 7 hours, she knew nothing about me, simply did the information thing. The archaeological sites were amazing and well worth the visit. The van was a squeeze with 8 tourists, 2 guides and driver. This became even tighter, with 2 extras added for the last two legs of the drive. The lunch entertainment was very dramatic and skillful, the sound system was so loud your body vibrated. Lunch itself was a testament to obesity - all options hot, fried and with a kilo of carbohydrates. Healthy options were completely avoided. At the end, the 40-minute visit to the beach was a waste of time; obviously not just my opinion - everyone came back to the van early.

Interesting but ruins are in a bad shape

Darryl_D, Oct 2022

Our guide Napo did a great job guiding us. But the tour wasn‘t organized really well and we had to wait a lot. Overall the trip was ok, but the reason we wouldn‘t recommend it is because the ruins and temples are in a really bad shape.

Great way to spend the first day in Peru

Analy_K, Jul 2022

Great experience. Long day and it was great learning about the different civilization. In the middle of the trip we ended up going to a restaurant with a cute dance. I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. -Entrance tickets were not included but were reasonably priced. I would def book again.

Great guide

Sinclaire_E, Jul 2022

The guide was knowledgable and gave a great tour. They take you to a tourist trap show after lunch. Skip that and stay in the van.

The tour took us to both...

Christina_S, Mar 2022

The tour took us to both Chan Chan and the sun and moon temples and where well organized. You get all the main things to do in Trujillo in one tour.

Very nice tour

Martina_B, Oct 2019

The tour was good and well organised. I really appreciated the quick reply to my booking request, which took place the evening before the tour date.

Trujillo full Day Tour

Freedom82448, Oct 2019

Cruise line was inflexible about pick up and drop offs, but Julio worked with us to make the most of a short day. We talked on Whatsapp from the ship the night before the tour and he rearranged the day to make the most of the time we had. His English was excellent and he provided a custom private tour for less than half what the boat was charging. Well worth the time!

Muy buen tour

Ruth_C, Dec 2023

El tour se desarrolló según lo descrito y cumpliendo los horarios, la guía que nos asignaron (Srta. Olga) muy buena para sus explicaciones y muy atenta en todo.

Excursión muy buena y aleccionadora .
