5.00Abner was an exceptional host and made the experience so great. The service is so well organised and the team they provide (Abner) make it a really enjoyable experience. Peru Hop is out of its league in terms of organisation, ease of use. The information Abner provided and his passion for his job shone through. His recommendations and service on the day tours was brilliant. Thank you so much for an amazing trip from Copacabana to Puno
Memorable and enjoyable, well organized trip to Isla del Sol.

5.00Everything was perfectly organized. Ivan the guide, and Andres as well, did an amazing job! The views were stunning, the whole itinerary was explained perfectly, and it was an enjoyable trip. Also, the bus is modern and comfortable. We had WiFi (which was working!) and power sockets, and a lot of leg room.
