Taking the tour to the Cañón de los Perdidos was one of the best decisions of our trip to Ica. The landscape is impressive, almost mystical, and the rock formations are a unique visual spectacle. What really made the difference was our guide, Samael. From the first moment, he demonstrated an excellent attitude and great knowledge of the area. The best part of the tour: • Exceptional guidance: Samael explained the geological history of the canyon and interesting facts about the place to us in great detail. • Attention and safety: He was always attentive to the group, making sure that we all walked at a comfortable and safe pace during the descent. • The official photographer: He took the time to take spectacular photos of us from the best angles of the canyon. If you are thinking about going, I totally recommend doing the tour with Samael. He is a top-notch professional!

Honestly, I loved getting to know the Cañón de los Perdidos. It is one of those places that surprise you from the moment you arrive. The landscape is incredible and the views are spectacular. The journey is totally worth it and the atmosphere is very peaceful. If you have the opportunity to go, do it, but bring water, a hat, and sunscreen because it is quite hot. I left with very good memories and a desire to return.

Need to update their itinerary. Pickup was half an hour late even though we were first to be picked up. Then what was supposed to be a quick stop for snacks was a long breakfast at their restaurant. This was followed by a long drive on rutted dirt road to the canyon. The canyon itself was unique and beautiful. We enjoyed the walk and the explanations by the guide. Then back in the van for a couple more hours, and back to the same restaurant for a long lunch and pisco that was not in the itinerary. Arrived in Ica more than two hours after advertized.
Good morning Andrew, thank you for your rating. We would like to inform you that the pickup times were within our previously communicated time range (6:30am ~ 7:00am). The road to the canyon is a bit rough in certain sections, however it is worth it, because it is a completely natural tourist attraction in the middle of the desert. Return times were within our previously mentioned time range of 4:30pm ~ 5:00pm. We wish you a wonderful trip through Peru. Best regards, Sam =) ⛰️🙌🏻😇

Everything fine except that the transport was somewhat awkward for the ride. They took us to a pisco cellar that didn't come on the itinerary.
