“Thank you Nora and Victor! Nora kept the energy up all day and could seamlessly switch between Spanish and English. Lots of information that helped bring the Inca history to life. Pick up was right on time and Nora gave me a call two minutes before their arrival to let us know to get ready. The van is quite cosy, but the longest journey you’ll do is 45 minutes, so no issues at all. Nora makes sure to give you information as you’re going along as well so that you have a good understanding of where you’re visiting. Lunch was good, lots of options for vegetarians as well. Really enjoyable…”
