Nice geological formations in a canyon of volcanic stone. However mind the mosquitoes and the walk is quite short. This tour will not include much ancient civilization history, and focuses rather on modern art sculptures made out of volcanic rocks.

Tour is exactly how it’s advertised! Very easy to get around and tour guides were nice. Nice trip if you only want to do a half day excursion.

Truly enjoyed this tour! It was nice that it was a 9am-2pm tour, not too early or late and not too long. At the end, they also give us the option to drop off at some local Peruvian food spots which was nice! The only complaint was the tour guide Cristina’s approach. She was a little pushy, a little rude and stand off is, passive aggressive. She kept almost scolding the group saying we weren’t listening and upset if we didn’t remember a specific fact when she did a pop quiz on us. She kept complaining about us to the driver saying kids were easier to deal with. At one point she even said under her breath, thanks for finally being obedient. She also appeared bothered when a couple would ask if they could take pictures at some spots. She mentioned at the beginning we’d have a stop for the bathroom/snack/etc. but we never stopped. Then we get to our first stop and she got upset that people had to use the restroom. She started to murmur under her breath and rushing us that we needed to start walking. The tour itself is so so nice!! Maybe just a different tour guide or Cristina works on her approach a little more.

Jack was an outstanding guide! He was patient with us as we got used to the bikes and the terrain. He planned for a possible puncture (which occurred) and had a replacement bike ready. He was flexible with our itinerary and took us to Salinas for a reasonable extra charge. The ride was enjoyable on a well-maintained dirt road with very little vehicular traffic. The scenery was pretty.

4 out of 5 good short trip canyon walking was my favorite part need to be some what's physically fit as terrain is uneven and walking up hill to exit. You have to pay 3 soles extra for certain areas and they have little table with things for sale. Sunglasses and hat a must

Signed up for tour on Thursday afternoon, didn’t hear anything from tour people until Sat afternoon. In the meantime I figured something had gone wrong with my request as there had been some wifi troubles. I didn’t hear anything till Sunday am because Sat I was on another tour, no internet. I informed the woman that I had made other plans and wanted a refund. She told me I could only get a refund through the TA website knowing by then it was too late. So no not recommending this.

Really cool experience, guide was very informative and entertaining, would recommend the guide and the tour for anyone looking what to do on a morning in the city :)

Totally worth it! Be in decent shape to do the hike but you cannot imagine the stunning photo opportunities and just overall feel of this gorgeous place.

Horrible communication. They confirmed with my hotel the night before and told me to wait outside from 3am-330am. I have been outside since 2:50am and they never showed up. They claimed that I didn’t confirm. I reached out to them at 3am asking if they were in their way and they said they wouldn’t be getting me. DO NOT USE AREQUIPA EXCURSIONES or Edgar.

Horrible communication. They called my hotel and then confirmed with them that I should wait outside from 3am-330am. I have been outside since 2:50 and then they claimed that the hotel never confirmed. Do not book with them or with Edgar - they did not show up.

The tour was ok, but we booked a English speaking tour for getting more from the history bus Jose, the guide we got, does not speak English at all. He wasn't able to understand our questions. He didn't make any efforts to put us in the group or give us the next meeting times... Bad guide and bad experience!

The nature was really impresive. Awesome ice cream teasting. Our guide Jose didn’t speak a word in english, although we asked for it and it even was written on the website. He couldn’t answer a question.

It was a good tour and the guide Jose was very attentive who spoke very good English and answered all questions

Pickup on time, it is a tour that is worth doing! Going to the Place where they have all the sillar is pretty cool, you get to take nice pics! But the highlight is Culebrillas, you will walk 700m amongst the rock formations, it is sand so it can be challenging specially for older people or if u have knee problems! Bring adecuate shoes! but worth it. Jose Jose the guide was awesome and patient! But very clear with time! We loved it!!!

Absolutely stunning scenery. Everything went according to plan Guide was helpful and knowledgeable Hotel in Chivay had no heat or towels
