Review of Lima’s Miraflores and Barranco bike tour, with Huaca Pucllana, Pacific views, practical tips, costs, bikes, and safety advice.
“Bikes were a little old and not in the best shape. Our guide was 20 minutes late and then proceeded to take another 20 minutes bringing the bikes out. Our tour was to include a complimentary bottle of water - which we didn’t receive. We were encouraged to have an espresso while we were waiting - I thought this would be complimentary since our tour was so late getting started instead I was charged 5 soles for a cold cup of expresso. Overall Manny was a decent guide and his English was very good. Unfortunately out of the group of 7 - 3 of them were not experienced bike riders…”

Review of a four-day Inca Jungle adventure from Cusco with mountain biking, rafting, hiking, ziplining, hot springs, and Machu Picchu.
“Really enjoyed the Adventure Hike, lots of pros with only a few cons, see below breakdown of the 4 days (I travelled early June 2024), some tips and a packing list of what to take. Day 1, Bike and Raft: Bike was great fun, very easy/beginner friendly as mostly downhill but get to pick up some speed while catching the views. Rafting was excellent with a few decent rapids. Accommodation was terrible, very basic shared hostel with only cold water shower (not ideal after rafting), food was average but didn't go hungry. Day 2, Hike: I'd class myself intermediate hiker and I found it pretty easy, there's a few hills…”
Ride ATVs from Cruz Pata to Huaypo Lagoon, then visit Maras salt mines, with mountain views, transport, and bilingual guiding from Cusco.
“Lamentablemente es un servicio que podría ser muy bueno por las vistas, pero los guías y el chofer del trasporte hacen que se vuelva algo nefasto. No cumplen con lo que viene descrito, ni tampoco con lo que ellos mismos te van diciendo sobre el tour. -El chofer maneja de forma insegura -El tour terminó casi 1 hora antes de lo planeado porque al parecer el chofer tenía pendientes que resolver. -En las salineras el guía nos dijo que tendríamos 35 a 40 minutos. Para ver, tomar fotos y compras algo de lo que se podía, algo sucedió que al final solo nos dio la explicación y 5 minutos para…”
