[We] would like to add a personal thank you to all who were involved in organising our trip to Peru. Jonathan and Claire were extremely helpful and professional when dealing with our initial queries and the whole trip went like clockwork until the BA flight was late leaving Miami on the way home!!! Our guide during the wildlife section, Juan, was extremely good, always on time, courteous and above all extremely enthusiastic. The trip…exceeded all our expectations. A very big thank you to you all.
