Stories: Aracari Review

Trip with Aracari - testimonial First of all Joyce and I want to say thank you. All the fine staff of Aracari that we met did an excellent job of caring for us and ensuring that every day of our trip to Peru was a wonderful  happy adventure. The itinerary that was designed, achieved a good balance of activity and relaxation. I was able to see all the archeological sites of interest to me. We were able to shop for everything we expected to buy, plus a little more. The hotels were well located , comfortable and accommodating. The meals were great; presentation and preparation was excellent. Drivers, vehicles and guides were first class. Here are our feelings about each segment of our itinerary: 1- Arrival in Lima We were greeted by Raul of client relations. He has great people and communication skills. His understanding of "tourism", the processes of moving clients, and the importance of detail, make him a very valuable member of your team. The confidence and calm he displays is contagious. Every time we were back in Lima, his warm and welcoming smile made us feel like we were home. His dining reccommendations were perfect. Driver and vehicle were always excellent.Colonial city tour - John Alfredo Davis - personable, fun guide with a vast knowledge of history and of course textiles. The lunch at Mrs. Gonzales's home was enjoyable, the conversation equally so. 2- The Iquitos / Ceiba Tops portion Was exactly the correct balance of comfort and adventure we were seeking. The canopy walkway at Napo lodge, the shaman's demonstration (and pet anteater), the Yagua village visit (blowgun challenge), the pink dolfins, and pirhanna fishing were all great experiences. Our very good guide at the lodge, Raul Petite, shared his knowledge of his environment and ensured all transfers were trouble free. 3- Shopping with Susy
