  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.

  Rolf organized several tours for us. He was very thorough re travel logistics and made sure we were everywhere on time and did not have any difficulty transitioning from one... read more activity to the next activity. Whenever we had a question or concern he was readily available to answer them and/or solve the problem in a very timely manner.
His prices were very reasonable.
We especially enjoyed the family stay at Amantani at Lake Titicaca, the Ballestas Islands near Paracas, and the Dune buggy and sand "surfing activity near Huacachina.
The hotels Rolf selected for us were good and were very accomodating.

  In June 2022 I did 4 tours organized by Real Peru For You and I can say they were excellently organized and executed. The guides were very good, I could... read more compare them to others which I saw while taking the tours. Also it is possible to get personalized tours and best advice how to see what you want in your available time.
Highly recommended!

  Participated in two organized tours, both were good, with competitive price. Got personal dedication and clear program. Recommended.

  Rolf helped make our trip painless! He was knowledgeable, thorough, and helpful. He made sure we got to where we needed to be, checked in with us, and also never... read more had us waiting long for anything. If ever there was any issues with our plans, and never at the fault of Rolf, he immediately handled it. I was able to do and see so much and really had a great experience. I'm travelling to Peru again and have reached out for stuff to do then. I couldn't imagine going through a different company or person.

  Rolf customized my tours in Peru to fit my needs. I did the Rainbow Mtns, hiked the Inka Trail to Machu Pichu, and went to the Amazon jungle. They thought... read more of everything to make my experience worryfree. Rolf really listened to my needs and then recommended the perfect itineraries. He is awesome!

  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!

  Real Peru was wonderful to work with. Organized with my Spanish school, Mundo Antiguo-- I went on 4 amazing tours with this agency.

-Sacred Valley
-Rainbow Mountain (Vinicunca... read more + Valle de Rojo)
-Salkantay 5 day trek
-Puno 2 day tour

I appreciated how attentive and personalized Rolf (one of the owners) was. He was always available through Whatsapp and came to my school to discuss my tour options on multiple occasions. He was able to help me when my whimsical travel itinerary changed and made my dreams come true through the Salkantay / Machu picchu trek. Puno / Islas de Uros were also beautiful.

The full day Sacred Valley tour was good, however, it was a little rushed and I went back to the Valley to explore Pisac and Ollantottambo on my own. Don't be surprised if you feel like your bus is being shuttled from tourist shop to tourist shop on this tour!

Peru is an incredible country and Real Peru For You with Rolf was a pleasure to work with. Plus, Rolf has an adorable baby and is always happy to share pictures of her 😉

  Rolf arranged a lot of tours for us (Paracas, Huacachina, Colca Canyon, Salkantay, Rainbow mountain and Manu Resverva) and everything went perfect. He is very helpful and has good competitive... read more prices
