June and July fill the good morning tours in Peru months ahead. The 7 below hold up, with current prices, group sizes and what the day actually asks of you.
Two hours of speedboat wildlife viewing in Paracas, with the El Candelabro geoglyph stop and protected islands from the sea.
“Well organised and a great way to sea nature in its natural surroundings. Plenty of birds and sea lions to photograph and a very informative guide.”
Private 2-day Cusco to Machu Picchu sunrise journey through the Sacred Valley, with guided Inca sites, food, and optional Huayna Picchu.
“Amazing two day trek; informative, professional, great by request vegetation food service, 3 star well kept and very comfortable overnight hotel, a must do. Best part was my professional guide Guido!”
Humantay Lake trek from Cusco with early start and late morning option, breakfast and lunch, oxygen, and round-trip transport.
“We had almost two hours of riding the ATVs and it was so much fun! Thankfully they were automatic vehicles so we didn’t have to worry about switching gears when driving up the hill. Be prepared for a dusty ride! Wear a face covering and sunglasses while you ride. The hike itself is VERY DIFFICULT! If you are not a frequent hiker or use to walking at high elevations this tour will be very hard to complete. Our tour guide was so nice and encouraging while we were hiking but we needed to make frequent stops to stretch and catch our breath. You may get light headed or have an…”
Afternoon Rainbow Mountain tour from Cusco, fewer crowds, small-group transport, guided hike, lunch, snacks, and quiet time for photos.
“Hermoso! Nos nevó!!! Y el guía Alex y el conductor yobert son muy amables, la comida deliciosa”
Cusco South Valley half-day tour to Tipón, Pikillacta and Andahuaylillas Church. Pickup, guide, and transport from $29.
“Tour was fantastic, saw a mix ofg Spanish, Incan, and pre-Incan sites. Best of all, not a lot of steps to go up and down. A nice way to see history without tiring yourself out.”
Morning Cusco tour with Sacsayhuaman, Qenqo, Puca Pucara and Tambomachay, plus a guided Coricancha stop. Good value, plan for tickets.
“Interesting - guide was great. Could have done without sales pitch at llama farm though.”
Sunrise or sunset paddle at Lake Yacumama, Madre de Dios. Small group tour includes canoe ride, caimans, macaw roosts, and golden views.
“The tour was really great! Our guide gave us a lot of explanations, we saw a lot of caimans and the sunset on the lake was incredible! But this agency is not trustworthy: poor communication and pick-up cancellation less than 4 hours before the meeting time. Better book with a local agency directly in Puerto Maldonado, like the one they subcontract to.”
