Orquidea were very efficient at booking the whole trip and at every point
they were there as arranged and sorted everything out for us. All the tours
were organized well and we had no troubles at all. We would recommend them to anyone who wishes to go to Peru.
As a matter of interest we met some people on the equivalent Thomas Cooke
tour who were complaining to us that there were 42 on the tour so that
everything took a long time - earlier rises etc - and they paid a
substantial sum more than we did.

I was in Peru in July. It is the best two weeks traveling I ever had. The Peruvian people, the scenery, the visits, the weather, the guides, the food, the hotels, everything was perfect. Orquidea's organization and competence made this vacation unforgettable. I just regret that Orquidea do not organize trips in every country!

The service provided to us by Orquedia Tours was fantastic - everything was
brilliantly organized and transport and transfers were waiting for us on
every occasion. Both the Orquedia staff and the staff in the hotels were
very friendly and could not have been more helpful throughout our stay. I
would strongly recommend that people use Orquedia when visiting Peru as your
agency made traveling through your beautiful country extremely easy and
very, very enjoyable. Thank you!

I was extremely impressed and satisfied with my stay in Cuzco.
I would highly recommend Orquidea accommodation and tours to anyone here in Australia, and have already done so.

-APRIL 2002-
We just completed our tour of Lima, Cuzco, Aguas Calientes,
and the 4 day hike to Machu Picchu. I have to say that the process of selecting a tour agency was very difficult and
after selecting Orquidea could only hope that things would go well. I have to thank "all" of the people of Orquidea for a fantastic trip that exceeded all of our groups expectations.
The hotels were wonderful, the service was exceptional, the food was fantastic. The pick up service at the airport, the pickup service at the hotels, the promptness of the tour guides, the knowledge of the guides for the Lima and Cuzco tours were excellent. The best of all and biggest surprise
was the service on the Inca trail. We never imagined that we
would have our own special dining tent with our tea served
in ceramic ware on a linen lined table. This is camping for
the elite and it was wonderful. We "all" enjoyed our tour
very much and the coordination and effort put into this trip by Orquidea and your staff of porters, and guides exceeded our expectations by at least 10 fold. Thank you again
and if you ever need a reference, please feel free to publish
my name, email, and phone number for others to contact us.

Our trip to Peru was exceptional. The guides were knowledgeable, communicated effectively and were concerned about our needs. All transportation was without incident and the time schedule was accurate. I commend your organization of activities in all aspects of our 11 day vacation to Peru and Bolivia.
We have already recommended your agency to friends and teachers here in Trinidad.

-FEBRUARY 2002-
I just returned this week from an Orquidea-arranged tour of Peru and I wanted to let you know that everything went smoothly and I had a wonderful time. I spent three days on the Amazon--where the canopy walkway and boat riding on the Amazon were marvelous. I also enjoyed my stay in Lima (summer breezes off the Pacific Ocean in February are a treat), Cuzco (I needed more free time to just walk
and enjoy this absolutely charming town) and Macchupiccu (a site that merits its attention by tourists).I will certainly pass along my recommendations concerning Orquidea to others.

I would like to thank your organization for the great trip you organized for us.
We liked very much:
- the linkage between all the items
- the great quality of all the package, especially the inca trail and amazonia trip
- the quality of the rooms.
The vacation in Peru proved to be very pleasant and we enjoyed very much the peruvian hospitality. I highly recommend your organization, especially for a honeymoon trip.
Please feel free to communicate my email to anyone requesting information on your organization.
Best regards.
