One cannot speak of Cajamarca, located in the Andes of northern Peru, without mentioning that it was the place where the conquistador Francisco Pizarro met the Inca Atahualpa, who offered the invader two rooms filled with silver and one with gold for his release. It is said that the volume was such that it took several weeks to melt the wealth paid for the release of the Inca sovereign. This payment was in vain, however, and months later, the Inca was killed. After that, the Spanish rule was complete. In addition to visiting the rescue room of the Inca Atahualpa, one can enjoy the hot and medicinal springs known as the Inca baths (for their having been used by Atahualpa and his predecessors) and its beautiful natural landscape. As a result of its beauty and archaeological variety, the OAS declared it to be a Historical and Cultural Heritage Site of the Americas in 1986.

Peru travel solutions helped us plan an 8 day/9 night trip to Peru. Our trip was amazing and memorable. We chose a very active vacation which included white water rafting, hiking to Machu Picchu and Rainbow mountain in addition to various ruins. We had guides every day who were punctual in picking us up, knowledgeable about the sites and great to work with. Would definitely recommend this tour company. They made our trip easy and relaxing in terms of the details and logistics.

My friend and I have recently returned from an amazing sightseeing trip to Peru, where we travelled extensively on tours, organised by Tempo Tours. We received an excellent service with amazing attention to detail. Drivers and guides were extremely professional, knowledgeable, polite, prompt and couldn’t do enough to ensure we had a great experience. A big thank you to Ernesto who went out of his way to resolve any queries and give advice. Thank you all for giving us a trip to remember!

From beginning to end, our trip was super stress free. Our tour guide, Marden, was amazing and the fact he spoke English and knew so much about nature was nice because my hubby could do what he came to the jungle for, which was explore the wildlife!
