Peru Andes Peaks Guides Travel Reviews

Aug 02, 2007
This was a 4 day, 3 night guided trek of the Santa Cruz area near Huaraz. It's the most popular trek in the Cordillera Blanca. Guide Oliver was good and food was decent. In all it was a great trek. At $80 for 4 days it was MUCH cheaper than Huascaran agency who wanted $120 PLUS $12 for renting sleeping bags. The SAEC 10% discount only applies in off-season too which doesn't mean much because who comes very much in off-season? I was very disappointed in the way Huascaran offered their service, and it was the most expensive in Huaraz that I checked. Our trip was great and we saved a bunch of money with Peru Andes. They were very professional and we left a tip for the guide and donkey driver.

The trip was arranged though Caroline's lodging and I think normal price for the trek is $90, but we had a small discount.

Their office is on the main street, Luzuriaga.
