About us

  We went on 3 trips that Rolf organized for us during our time in Cusco - Sacred Valley, Lake Titicaca and Machu Picchu. Rolf met with us to discuss... read more the trips and helped us to determine the best timing for each. For 2 of the 3 trips, he picked us up in a taxi and made sure that everything was set and we got onto our busses. For the 3rd trip when he was meeting another group, he sent his driver. Anytime I had a question, either before or during a trip, Rolf answered very quickly - and some of those questions were very early or late! No real problems arose, but if they had, I feel confident Rolf would have addressed them as quickly as he took care of my questions. I highly recommend working with Rolf - if we are able to get back to Cusco again someday, we have a few more places we would like to see and will definitely look to Rolf to help us make that happen!

  My friend and I visited Machu Picchu, Sacred Valley, and Lake Titicaca--which were all amazing!--without any stress along the way. Rolf was great with organizing and communicating all the details,... read more and when we needed to change plans on short notice he gave us options and made sure everything worked out. If I return to Peru I will 100% use this company again.

  I'm a college professor from the United States. I visited Cusco earlier this week to attend a language school (Mundo Antiguo--also excellent) for my spring break. As part of my... read more brief trip, I visited Machu Picchu. I booked this tour through Rolf.

Rolf lives and works in Cusco. I communicated with Rolf through email and WhatsUp. Rolf was always prompt to return my messages. I was extremely pleased with Rolf's professionalism and personalized customer service skills. Just to give everyone a concrete example--Rolf actually dropped off my tickets and itinerary at the place where I was staying in Cusco. I cannot recommend him more highly.

  Good communication, well-organised activities, good prices. Rolf was always available to answer questions.

  I’ve booked three tours through Real Peru For You and the experience was exceptional.

My first trip was a day tour to the Sacred Valley with pickup, which went... read more flawlessly. The tour itself was really cool and the food for lunch was very tasty.

My second trip was to the south of the Sacred Valley which I liked more, because it was less touristy and less rushed. It also included pickup and guide etc. at a very fair price. I really recommend this tour, I would definitely do it again if I return.

My third trip was the Salkantay Trek to Machu Picchu. It was really easy to set everything up with the agency and the owner was really helpful in every part of the process. The price was really good and the trip itself an amazing experience. After my first two trips to archeological sites I thought I had seen it all but boy was I wrong. I have traveled quite a bit and Machu Picchu was one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen. It is really hard to put in words what a magical place it really is. Definitely recommend booking the Salkantay trek.

I have a bit of criticism for the partner company Macchu Picchu Reservations on the Salkantay trek, which does not influence this review of Real Peru For You. However I think this agency has more power to change things than me by my review on their page.

Unfortunately the Salkantay trek did not include drinking water. They said “you can buy it along the way and support the local people”. This obviously leads to a massive amount of plastic trash along the trek which we picked up while walking, bringing back kilos of plastic bottles every day. These are just the plastic bottles that are alongside the walkway, there must be so many more in the brush or off the cliffs that we couldn’t get to. I would be willing to pay the money I paid for bottled water to the agency instead and let them boil water off everyday.

Generally, the guides were very helpful and knowledgeable. However, once we got to Machu Picchu it seemed like they didn’t really know how things worked, placing us in the wrong queue at first (there are different queues for different tickets). They more than made up for it by bringing us to the best viewing point. I would recommend to make sure you have Route 1 when booking the tickets though, because what they did might not always work and Route 3 (Machu Picchu + Mountain) only includes a lower part of Machu Picchu and not the famous viewpoint of the entire site.

If they address these two problems, it makes a perfect trip.

  Very positive contact - Very good service and easy to contact. Short response time. Very helpful in case of problems. Rebooked our salkantay in a few minutes to other tour with no extra costs.... read more For us it was also nice to be able to communicate in Dutch! We booked several tours with Rolf, his prices are also competitive!
