viExplorer Peru, Bolivia, Chile, 08/11/ - 27/11/2008 The 24 days in South America were a really great experience. With our day and night totally committed travel guide (who knew the best restaurants and bars and did not get upset for too long when someone lost something ;-)) we felt very comfortable. The program was tightly organized, but if one wants to see that much in such a short time, there is no other choice. The organization (transfers, accommodation, events) could not be topped. The hotels, except for Potosi (horrible beds) were always good. Simple, but clean. And most of the time one was on route anyways. My highlights were the 4-day-Inca trail (a challenge, but an unforgettable experience), the Death Road in La Paz and the Salt desert. Thank you very much Alejandro and the “rabbit group” for the great and unfortunately too short time!
viExplorer Peru, Bolivia, Chile, 08/11/ - 27/11/2008 The tour was simply great – I would have liked to stay and travel more through South America. There were so many impressions that sometimes we were only able to get the events into the right order with the help of the group, photos and the travel diary. Highlights were the visit to Machu Picchu in a mystical morning mood (mist rising from the valley), Sand boarding and the salt desert in Bolivia. The support before and after the tour succeeded without problems and was well organized. All of our questions were immediately answered – there was always a contact person. Regarding the hotels I was positively surprised – I had been expecting less quality. Our guide cared a lot for us, we had lots of fun and laughed a lot. Too bad that we had to say goodbye to our guide before Santiago because we got into a farewell mood before the real farewell. Furthermore, there was nowhere to party in San Pedro de Atacama after 1 o’clock.
My conclusion: it was a great tour that I can really recommend.
viExplorer Peru, Bolivia, Chile, 08/11/ - 27/11/2008 I liked my first tour to South America very much. Everything went very well. We were able to collect wonderful impressions of different countries. My absolute highlights were Machu Picchu, the salt desert and the Mountain biking tour near La Paz. Of course, we experienced a lot more. I also liked the alternating program between city tours and excursions into the nature. I maybe would have liked to stay one more day in Santiago de Chile or Lima. The hostels were surprisingly very good and thanks to our guide Alejandro we were also spoiled with culinary delights. It was surely not my last visit in South America.
viExplorer Peru, Bolivia, Chile, 08/11/ - 27/11/2008 This tour was an unforgettable experience for me. It was great fun to experience this diverse tour together. The tour consisted of many highlights, sometimes I was overwhelmed by the beauty and peace of nature, at other times by the colourful life of the big cities. It would have been positive if we had had a longer stay in those big cities (Lima, Santiago de Chile). Alejandro cared very well for us, the tour course was very well organized, and he was always present and answered our many questions :-).
A really great experience and lots of fun.
viExplorer Peru, Bolivia, Chile, 08/11/ - 27/11/2008 Basically I was very satisfied with the concept and realization of the tour. The preparation before the tour was optimal. Like this we have never experienced it and we have already done many tours of this kind. Our highlights were Machu Picchu (very atmospheric, impressive and overwhelming), Potosi with its silver mountain and the visit of the mine. Overwhelming was also the salt lake (a real experience), terrific journey from Chuvica through the Bolivian Volcano land with its borax lakes, the flamingos, vicuñas, lamas, the impressive mountain - and stone formations and the unique colour play of the landscape. A beautiful conclusion were the Inca ruins in San Pedro with its cave system (which strangely seemed to be unknown by the guide) and the unique landscape around San Pedro like the Valle de la Luna.
viExplorer Peru, Bolivia, Chile, 08/11/ - 27/11/2008 The tour was a great adventure holiday with many highlights like the buggy tour through the dunes, the Inca trail and Machu Picchu, the Mountain biking tour on the Death road and the salt desert in Uyuni, only mentioning some. Our guide Carlos and his local fellows showed us in an entertaining way the countries and its people. An unforgettable experience!
viExplorer Peru, Bolivia, Chile, 08/11/ - 27/11/2008 It was a great, diverse and well organized tour. I could go on vacation again right now. South America is great and the temperatures are a lot more comfortable than in Ireland. Highlights were the buggy tour and the city tours. The hotels were generally clean and adequate. Only the first hotel in Lima I would change, too noisy, not clean, not a very good impression in the beginning of the tour.The travel guide was competent and spent his whole free time with the group. He recommended good restaurants and bars. The preparation previously was also very good and I have already recommended viventura.
viExplorer Peru, Bolivia, Chile, 08/11/ - 27/11/2008 The tour was very well organized and locally aeverything went well. My highlight was Machu Picchu. The accommodation was mainly simple, but in such a tour you have to be prepared for this. The rooms were always clean and there was hot running water. I liked the contact with the people, when we visited a school and when we spent a night with a family at Lake Titicaca. Our group harmonized very well, we had lots of fun!!!
viExplorer Peru, Bolivia, Chile, 08/11/ - 27/11/2008 The preparation before the tour was very good, we did not feel alone and always got a quick answer to our questions. The tour in general was one big highlight; there was almost nothing that I did not like. Of course, visiting three countries in such a short time can get stressful at times, but our travel guide managed it well and cared very well for those with health problems. The accommodation was usually better than expected, only at the Lake Titicaca and in the salt desert it was not possible to take a shower, but that’s ok for a couple of days. All in all the booking with viventura was worth it and when we plan a next trip to South America we would probably choose the same tour operator.
