Arequipa Travel Guides (Updated September 2026)

Great first outdoor climbing experience! Super friendly and helpful guide plus a stop at the really cool rooftop bouldering gym!

Pleasant experience, I decided to take this tour just to clear my head, I made friends, met people from other countries, and enjoyed a good day.

Great tour we visited the monestry and other important sites

This was a highlight of our entire Peruvian vacation! Alonso is an amazing guide who taught us so much about food in Arequipa as well as the city itself. We were honored to meet him and experience this delicious food. Thank you Alonso for an unforgettable experience!

We had an excellent private tour in Arequipa. Our guide John was knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about sharing the city's history, culture, and architecture. We visited beautiful landmarks and enjoyed stunning views of the surrounding volcanoes. The tour was well-organized, informative, and enjoyable from start to finish. I especially appreciated how the guide answered all our questions and made everyone feel welcome. Arequipa is a beautiful city, and this tour made our visit even more memorable. The monastery part was seamlessly handed by John to another (in-house) guide, and this part was very good as well; the monastery inner "city" is amazing. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Arequipa!

We had a fabulous afternoon with Alonso who is an excellent guide. Make sure you go hungry as there is course after course and we ate pretty constantly for 3 hours. Went to the market then to a number of different restaurants, all interesting and all delicious. Our group tour was just the two of us! Highly recommend.

The service is very good; they care about your comfort and your needs. I recommend it 100%

I was a first time rock climber and unsure about my capabilities. However, the guide Marco really makes you feel like you can do it!Would recommend also for someone who has never climbed before!

We had a wonderful tour with Alonso. We needed a vegetarian and regular food tour and he did outstanding! Lots of information, history and culture. He was great with questions and suggestions and would highly recommend for fun and amazing food tour!

Nice tour that gets one to the Yanahuara viewpoint without having to walk or take a taxi. The Iglesia de la Compania near the Plaza de Armas was beautiful and its San Ignacio Chapel decorated with birds from the jungle was amazing. Glad that admission was included, along with the even more expensive admission to the Monasterio de Santa Catalina. Although one can visit these sites on one’s own, this tour saves a lot of time. Jeymi was a good guide. Unfortunately February is not the best month for viewing the volcanoes though because it is the rainy season.

Alonso was an excellent guide to the food of Arequipa. Each stop was filled with history, interesting facts, and several funny stories. We were so full by the end of the tour we didn’t even have dinner. Highly recommend!

The city of Arequipa is beautiful with cobblestone streets and palaces from the time of the Spanish conquest that are beautiful and the monastery of Santa Catalina is a wonder I have never seen a monastery as big and beautiful as this.

We did our first rock climbing experience with rojo and had the best experience!! I felt a little scared at times but they helped with everything and made me feel secure :))

Great place, very friendly staff, great location. Would highly recommend

The guys were amazing. Eduardo was one of the two guides that took us to rock climb and was supportive, gave plently of tips and guidance when we were climbing. I was a beginner and felt perfectly comfortable trying out the sport. They took us to an outside wall with a variety of different climbing levels of difficulty. We even got to try some bouldering. In the end we had a brilliant time and would heavily recommend.

A very good experience. A small group that felt personalized. The guide was excellent, leading the experience step by step.
