Jorge was a very attentive guide who took us to visit some very interesting places in Arequipa, always providing explanations about the history, architecture, and so on. He also gave us valuable tips on local restaurants, where to buy handicrafts and alpaca products, etc. Excellent! I highly recommend him.

Despite our group being extremely large, Johan was attentive and made sure to include the whole group. Great information, interesting and well presented. I would recommend this tour for anyone spending time in Arequipa, I was left with a handful of recommendations for places to visit and got a good sense of the city.

Wow. We had a big group of 30 people, the tour started slowly with a visit to Mundo del Llama which just felt like a tourist shopping trap.
But from there, it was amazing. We visited some tucked away places that I don't think we ever would have found on our own. Johan talks at a million miles per hour, his English is amazing and he is very funny. He also coped very well with two very rude ladies from NY who lagged behind, wandered off on their own every time we stopped at a location, and spoke while Johan was explaining things. I would have been very tempted to punch them.
