My wife and I arranged a private tour of southern Peru (Lima, Nazca Lines, Arequipa, Sacred Valley, Cuzco, Machu Picchu, etc.) through Kuoda and our experience was wonderful. At each location, we had a highly trained professional guide and a driver, and since it was just the two of us, we had flexibility that isn’t possible in a large group tour setting. We learned so much about the beautiful country of Peru and hope to return again someday to explore northern Peru and the Amazon region. We’ll certainly contact Kuoda to help us create another spectacular experience!
The Kuoda team surpassed our every expectation for our Peru trip. We were expertly led through the planning of our trip and every hotel, guide and excursion was exceptional. I would highly recommend Kuoda to anyone interested in private, personalized tours!!!
Kuoda did a fantastic job planning my family's 2-week trip through Peru. We moved through the country seamlessly and had many fantastic experiences. Mery is so warm and runs a great company.
Twice we have used Kuoda Travel for our trips to Peru. We can not say enough about how wonderfully they handled every detail of our trips. Their tour guides are great, knowledgeable, and professional. We traveled during our birthdays and they surprised us with cakes, flowers, and even a special lunch that we will never forget. At the end of the visit you feel you have really made a friends who were very happy to share their time and country with you. We would not hesitate to use they again and highly recommend them for a visit that was made perfect!!
Fabulous service; from plane to train to Machu Picchu. Luxury service . Guide spoke English very well & was extremely knowledgeable. Would & have recommended them to other travelers.
My family had an amazing Peruvian adventure thanks to Kuoda Travel. From the coordination and design of our trip before hand, to the personal support during the trip, the office itself was fantastic. I can also not say enough good things about our tour guide and driver. They were both so knowledgeable and engaging. From the history of the area, to amazing hikes we asked to be added at the day before, they both knew exactly how to allow us to all have the best experience possible. With regards to cost, in looking at how much it would have cost to book the same locations on our own, it is well worth the price we paid. Thank you
This is total Kuoda. I went on a trip with them 7+ years ago and they're asking for a review now!! Worse "planned" trip ever. I still remember how bad it was to this day. They screwed up our passes to Machu Picchu, which was the whole purpose of our trip. Sent us on some "elaborate" we're sorry we screwed up "expedition" where they camped us on a farm next to the pigpen. And.... the balloon pilot crashed the balloon into the only tree in a big huge field. Trashed my shoulder. And he thought it was hysterical. They so didn't have their act together and clearly that remains the case today. Look elsewhere
Kuoda provided personal service and went the extra mile to make sure we were taken care of during our trip. They even provided extra special services when they learned one of the individuals in our party was having a birthday. If we needed anything they took care of it for us, and when I specifically wanted to go to a specific store that wasn't near anything on our list of places, they worked it out so we could go there.
The best luxury travel agency you could possibly choose in Peru. Travelling the beautiful countries of Peru and Bolivia took a notch up with our itineraries being arranged by Kuoda Travel. They have the best driver and very knowledgeable guides , and the Owner Mery was on top and hands on on every situation that arises... Truly , a very professional company that looks after its customers and consider them as family.
What a fabulous experience we had with Kuoda! All of their staff were unfailingly friendly, and the level of service they extended to my wife and me was totally of the highest quality imaginable. We loved the places and experiences that they chose for our visit to Peru. And, we particularly liked our private guide, Ofelia. This is the only way to travel to Peru!
What an amazing trip. Every detail was taken care of. Accomodations were great, Guides were wonderful and you could tell that they cared.
We will be back soon.

A fabulous trip made possible by a wonderful travel service
I generally like to do all of my own travel planning and therefore have never used a travel service. I am also not a fan of large travel groups so Kuoda appealed to me by offering personalized, private tours. The staff at Kuoda were great from start to finish. Jesus our online trip planner worked with our budget and our request to have free days in between tour days. Most importantly, he patiently answered my questions when things in the itinerary seemed odd to me (packing bags for an overnight stay with the luggage going on ahead, how to get from the hotel to the train). I am a bit of a control freak so trusting someone else to get things right does not come easy for me but they met and exceeeded my expectations. Jason met us at the airport in Cusco (and in two other locations) with a clearly labeled sign and turned us over to our driver, Jon and our guide, Edward. Both handled their jobs with professionalism and expertise, it was a pleasure to spend time with them. Edward is very knowledgeable about the region and its sights and was open to questions - it was very easy to talk to him. Jon navigated the challenging roads with ease. Mery met us at the airport on our final day, thanked us for our business, gave us warm hugs and a beautiful gift to use to remember our trip. When we plan a trip to the Galapagos Islands, we will definitely use Kuoda again!
