Due to time constraints, I did not have much time for planning a tour by myself, so I decided to contact some travel agents for private tours. Monica responded promptly and quoted me a reasonable price on a tour to Islas Ballestas and the Paracas Natural Reserve. The tour started at 3am (!) to catch the early bus to Pisco.... More

Still can't believe how much of Lima and what a fun time I had during my 9 hour layover of Lima. Monica is so friendly and fun to be around and really loves showing visitors the best of Lima and Peruvian hospitality. She made the day unforgettable for me and I would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Peru! thanks... More

Cecelia, our guide, was fluent in English and gave us detailed descriptions wherever we went. We saw everything as promised and more. We rode in a clean, comfortable air-conditioned van with... More

Monica Tours offered us a superb choice of activities/places to do and see on our 3 weeks in Peru. We were accompanied every step of the way with extraordinary guides all at an attractive price. Do not hesitate to contact this Tour company (Monica) for great service. Loved Peru and would consider going back in a couple of years! More

It was our first time to visit South America, in particular Peru. I emailed Monica almost a year in advance to ask her about the possibilities to get from Lima to Arequipa in a private tour. Her proposals were correct and I had the possibility to adapt them to our personal wishes. The money transfer was easy and correct and... More

We highly recommend using Monica's services for a day touring Lima and environs. Communication on line was very efficient as Monica worked with us to plan a visit to all the sights that we wished to see. Our small group of eight were met at the port of Callao as arranged by Monica and Cecilia. Cecilia, our guide for the... More

We toured Lima with Monica tours with 3 other couples. They did a fantastic job. They were very professional, personable, and flexible. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and spoke excellent English. The driver was terrific. Tip..... don't even think about renting a car and driving in Lima. The van was top drawer, a new Mercedes. Monica accompanied her guide... More
