Testimonials

“TLA did a fabulous job on our once in a lifetime visit to Peru. The accommodations were fabulous at every stop and Machu Picchu was amazing. You cannot totally understand how a city could be ‘lost’ for 500 years until you visit Machu Picchu. Lifetime memories were created on this trip.”

“We had a wonderful time in Peru all throughout. Every location that you arranged and all the facilities have been very very good. As a family we had a good time and memorable trip. Thank you for helping us out. Look forward to working with you again. ”

“This has been the delight of my life. Not only was the beauty of the trip great but your staff that has been with us over the days of the trip have made our trip safe and enjoyable. As a 77 year old using a cane (or two) I wasn’t sure this was going to be successful, but it WAS wonderful. Your staff (guides) made me and Alice feel safe all the way through. I have already encouraged friends to follow the same route!! and join your wonderful plans and staff. Thank you so much for all you and your guides and drivers did to make this and absolutely successful vacation adventure for me (and Alice).”

“Thank you for arranging a magnificent trip that exceeded all our expectations. Peru is a beautiful, diverse, and enthralling country. While Machu Picchu is a once-in-a-lifetime visit, Peru has a remarkable abundance of other equally breath-taking sites. We would strongly suggest that visitors not miss the salt mines of Maras, the experimental circles of Moray, or the “white city” of Arequipa.The condors of the Colca Canyon are as impressive as the almost unbelievable and ubiquitous pre-Inca and Incan terraces, which, themselves, are almost as amazing as the breath-taking stonework of the Incan buildings. Perhaps most surprising was the superb food that we had at almost every turn. Our guides/hosts Ernesto and Luis deserve our full credit and appreciation for making it accessible and enjoyable for us, and you deserve credit for setting it all up. We give our tour an unreserved five stars! ”

“Thank you TLA for providing the most amazing experience for my son and I. TLA went above and beyond good service. We planned our trip to the Peruvian Amazon and Machu Picchu with TLA months ago but when we went to visit Cusco it just happened to be right in the middle of the labor strikes. These are not things you can predict when you are planning a trip to another country and can hinder your vacation if you don’t have an amazing and experienced company like TLA helping you out. As we started on our hike with our guide, Freddy (who was fantastic), we kept running into other guides who were walking alone as their guests had not arrived due to the labor strike in Cusco on the 18th. But my son and I were just getting started on our Inca Trail adventure and there was only one reason for that. Totally Latin America had remained on top of this situation from the moment the strike discussions started. They mobilized to get us on the train a day earlier from previously planned so my son and I could experience one of the most beautiful and important places we’ve ever seen. From the Peruvian Amazon cruise aboard the Aqua Nera which was absolutely incredible which I would highly recommend for all ages, to our excellent time in Cusco, to the unimaginable experience that is Machu Picchu, the folks at TLA were fantastic. We will never forget it. Well, I won’t anyway, let’s hope the 15-year-old doesn’t either.”
