The tour guide JJ picked us up directly from the hotel. He was very helpful, his English was excellent and he was able to answer all of our questions. The tour itself was also very interesting.

Loved seeing the Central Market and the chicharron sandwich was awesome! Learned a lot about Peruvian history and culture. JJ and the team were great! Totally recommend!
