Often referred to as the White City, Arequipa is a beautiful blend of Spanish colonial and indigenous architecture and culture. Perhaps what is most unusual is that the city has no ruins and overtime all historic buildings like the ancient ‘Tambos’ houses have been refurbished. The main square is the Plaza de Armas where one will find a fascinating collection of white buildings made from volcanic stone called sillar. Close by is the San Camillo Market, a good place to buy pashminas, jumpers and ponchos made from Alpaca wool. Let an experienced Arequipa Travel guide navigate you through the Roman Catholic churches that dot the city like the large La Compania Church and Cloister, her finely carved arched columns and ornate entrance is most probably the most beautiful in the city. Spend a few hours at the Convento de Santa Catalina, walking through the Cloister of the Oranges, the beautiful silverwork of the Alter of the church or walk along Cordova Street, geraniums hanging from the window boxes. Crossing the iron bridge Puente Fierro, it would be appropriate to stop for lunch and try the traditional Rocoto relleno con pastel de papa, a pepper that has been stuffed with potato pie.

I feel that we should be able to do the reservations on our own and book the local tours directly with the local agencies in Peru whereas he wants to do all the arrangements through a four operator in Northern America. I feel this is going to cost much more as opposed as doing it ourselves.

Thanks in advance for any feedback and advice.

My inclination is to suggest that you arrange the trip on your own. I can't say whether a tour operator would necessarily be more expensive than doing it on your own, but you probably would want it to be: I wouldn't want to trust a trip like this to a 'cheap' tour agency. (And personally, I would find that going through a tour company wold take most of the fun out of a trip, though I take it that "he" disagrees.)

I priced out some options from tour operators in North America, and they were typically at least twice what it cost me to book the same on my own. So we booked everyone on our own with local operators, and it was really easy.

Are you not interested in visiting the Amazon?

Thanks for your quick answer. E

i have been research/planning and doing my own 1 month trips since 2013.

Sometimes i will pickup a tour here or there, but it will depend. you can do this too.

there are no Laws/Rules/Gods to say otherwise.

If you have the money but not the time to devote to reserach/planning, then maybe a travel agent is better. At least you will end up going. While some people cant plan their way out of a wet paper bag. Only you know your limitations.

If you want to learn how to do the work yourself, go for it. If you end up doing so and if you plan to travel more, you may find out that once you plan one trip, the next will be easier.

And you can and are allowed to cherrypick how you want to do things too.

a suggestion. take or leave. Get some or a travel book on the subject. They were out there before the internet and are still relevant.

Thanks Lorenzo for the quick answer. I am on the website of the Ministry of Culture to check for tickets in Machu Pichu https://tuboleto.cultura.pe/ and I notice that there are around 13 options to choose from (Circuit 1, 2, 3, 4 and some other combinations such as Machu Pichu mountain and Circuit 3).

Do you have any suggestions? We are not interested in strenuous hikings. Thanks!

We arrived late and transferred to our hotel in Miraflores . We then spent the next day in Lima , exploring the Miraflores neighbourhood, the Larco Museum, the historical centre, and the Magic Water Circuit.

We then went with Nazca flights to do a Nazca lines flight from the Pisco airport. We sand-skied the dunes in Huacachina, stayed overnight in Paracas , and visited the Ballestas Islands and Paracas Reserve before returning to Lima for a next.

We flew to Cusco the next morning and transferred immediately to the Sacred Valley. I recommend staying in Ollantaytambo -- it's a nice little town that retains a lot of its Incan infrastructure and it has its own beautiful ruins. The train to Machu Picchu also leaves from Ollantaytambo station.

There's a lot to do and see in the Sacred Valley. For example, people often visit Maras and Moray and often Chinchero (for the archaeological site or to visit the traditional weavers) on their way to or from Cusco. There are a lot of adventure activities -- for example, we went white water rafting in the Urubamba -- and more sedate activities like birdwatching nature walks. I recommend getting a guide book -- and a map -- to find the sites and activities that most interest you.

Note that Pisaq is most easily visited from Cusco. It's along the same road as Saqsaywaman and several other interesting sites like Tambomachay. Do devote some time to Cusco, and there are numerous day trips that can be done from Cusco, like to the Rainbow Mountain. (We went to Palccoyo ourselves, which was quieter.)

We went to Puerto Maldonado from Cusco (direct flight ) to visit the Amazon for 4 nights after. (Which was probably my favourite part of the trip.)

There are any number of local companies that are happy to sell you tours. For example, Alpaca Expeditions is one of the largest. In Cusco, we went with a smaller companies, Mountain Gods Peru , because they were happy to customize a plan for us. (They also helped us with the Machu Picchu tickets, which I appreciated as we were booking when there was all that political unrest last spring.)

We tried to book accommodation in smaller hotels/B&Bs, which were really nice. For example, we stayed overnight in Pisac at the Florencio casa hacienda, and the owner gave us a tour of his garden and his father's collection of native vegetables.

One thing I will stress is: don't take the elevation lightly. Start at lower elevations (Ollantaytambo or Arequipa) and work your way up to higher elevations like Cusco later.
