I never write comments but in this instance I feel compelled to do so.
Travel preparation was already so satisfying: we first had a Teams call not only to get to know each other but, more importantly, for Elise to be able to grasp and understand what the customer really likes (or not), aspires to, prefers as activities. Being better aware of my wishes, she persistently gave frank and good advice! Elise was also in the starting blocks to buy critical tickets as soon as they became available (access to Machu Picchu, panoramic trains, etc). She is also a master at reshuffling the itinerary as PeruRail suddenly announced a train cancellation.
Departed to Peru with a very good impression which only got better on the spot!
Flawless execution of the plan while still flexible to accommodate a few last minute minor changes.
Every day, WhatsApp message with pick up time and practical modalities of next day along with pdf’s of all the necessary entrance tickets, boarding passes. Seamless!
The above and beyond: I was going to miss my gastronomical restaurant reservation in Lima due to unusually (even worse than normal) horrendous traffic. I sent Elise a message asking if she could just call the restaurant to notify them of my late arrival. She went over and beyond what I could have reasonably expected to ensure they kept my table. I can only be grateful!
Knowledgeable, nice and pleasant guides; attentive drivers (slow down or stop spontaneously for a picture).
Very good selection of hotels and recommendations of restaurants. Food is so delicious in Peru.
The trip was extraordinary not only by its content but also so pleasant by its execution!
Thank you very much, Elise. I know whom to call next time!
