6 Stars! Flexible, affordable, and an incredible tour experience!
Choosing VIPAC Travel for our recent trip to Peru was hands down one of the best decisions we made. We initially looked into booking with a major US-based tour operator, but they required booking at least six months in advance just to secure a spot. By contrast, VIPAC offered complete flexibility with our start and end dates, and they were significantly less expensive. Taking a chance on a local agency completely paid off. Instead of being packed into a massive group, we enjoyed what felt like a highly personalized, private tour experience. The seamless organization was clear from the start—immediately after booking, we received a comprehensive confirmation email detailing our itinerary and hotels. On the ground, the drivers and guides were incredibly professional and punctual. What truly set VIPAC apart was their exceptional communication. The office staff checked in with us daily via WhatsApp to preview the next day's schedule and quickly answer any questions. We had an absolutely phenomenal vacation and would give them six stars if we could! We are already recommending VIPAC to all of our friends planning a trip to Peru. Thank you for a wonderful experience! TripAdvisor Details to Select: • Rating: 5/5 stars (since 6 isn't an option!) • Type of visit: [Select: Couples, Family, Friends, or Solo] Would you like to add any specific locations you visited (like Machu Picchu or Lima) to help future travelers find your review more easily?
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for sharing your wonderful review and for your generous "6-star" rating! We are absolutely thrilled to hear that choosing VIPAC Travel was one of the best decisions you made for your trip to Peru. We take great pride in offering flexible, affordable, and highly personalized experiences. It is incredibly rewarding to know that our seamless organization, daily WhatsApp communication, and the punctuality and professionalism of our guides and drivers made your vacation feel like a custom, private tour. We are glad that our local expertise provided a great alternative to the larger, less flexible operators. We truly appreciate your high recommendation to your friends. Whether your journey took you through Lima, Machu Picchu, or any of our other beautiful destinations, it would be a great honor to welcome you back for another phenomenal adventure in the future.

The Best Experience!
I could write a whole essay on how well organized and fun this 7 day trip was. We were consistently informed with what we needed and what time the next day started with. A Vipac transfers and tours were sent to us before the start of the trip so we knew when we were checking into which hotel as well as tickets to museums and etc. When we arrived in Lima a day earlier because we just wanted to visit before our 7 day tour began, a Vipac member already was there with a sign of my name and took us to the van where a driver was waiting for us. She (Fatima) shared the schedule and options of what we could do as well as answered any questions we may have. They dropped us off at the hotel we booked. There was a point person (Carolina) after who let us know what time our next tour guide along with their name would show up. She shared our train tickets via WhatsApp and coordinated with our boarding passes as we needed to fly to Cusco to Lima and etc. Jose was our guide for two days and was informative. He let us know that our hotel came with a bird watching tour, twilight tour, and etc so we enjoyed our time at the hotels. These were 5-star hotels that we really enjoyed! Two of the hotels had heating pads ready for us at night. At Palacio del Inka, they even had an oxygen tank as we were experiencing a little altitude sickness. Jaime took us to Machu Picchu and was hilarious with his jokes. We even had a few photoshoots. Even when getting to the train station, there was a Vipac member waiting for us to inform us of what we needed to do and what would happen. We were never lost and were always informed every step of the way. If you are a person who would like to enjoy the experience and not have to plan every gritty little detail, this is the booking you should make! When we booked a day trip to see sea lions without Vipac as this was after the 7-day tour, we took a lot of time having to figure out our itinerary for just the day and made us appreciate Vipac so much more! 5 stars are simply not enough for this wonderful experience.
Response from the operator: Reading your review truly means the world to our entire team. Knowing that you felt supported, informed, and cared for from the moment you arrived in Peru until the end of your journey is exactly the experience we strive to create for every traveler. Thank you for taking the time to recognize so many members of our team, especially Fátima, Carolina, José, and Jaime. We will be delighted to share your kind words with them—they'll be thrilled to know their dedication, warmth, and professionalism helped make your trip so memorable. It's also wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the hotels, the personalized service, and all the little details that made your journey comfortable and worry-free. Your recommendation is the greatest compliment we could receive. Thank you for trusting VIPAC to be part of such a special adventure. We can't wait to welcome you back to Peru for another unforgettable experience! VIPAC Travel Team

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
7-Day New Dawn in Machu Picchu: Lima, Cusco & Sacred Valley: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Lima.
How much does 7-Day New Dawn in Machu Picchu: Lima, Cusco & Sacred Valley cost?
+
Prices start at $1,070 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Lima usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 7-Day New Dawn in Machu Picchu: Lima, Cusco & Sacred Valley take?
+
Plan for about 168 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Lima is not rushed.
Is 7-Day New Dawn in Machu Picchu: Lima, Cusco & Sacred Valley worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 86 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 324 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Lima, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 7-Day New Dawn in Machu Picchu: Lima, Cusco & Sacred Valley?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 7-Day New Dawn in Machu Picchu: Lima, Cusco & Sacred Valley suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 168-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 7-Day New Dawn in Machu Picchu: Lima, Cusco & Sacred Valley?
+
Around 113 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Lima can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Lima and add a light layer if any part of the 168-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 7-Day New Dawn in Machu Picchu: Lima, Cusco & Sacred Valley start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Lima within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Lima?
+
On Outty we rank every Lima experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Premium Paracas & Huacachina Day Trip from Lima with Sunset Toast, Discover Lima: Love Park, Historic Center, and its Catacombs., Paracas & Huacachina Premium Experience from Lima. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Lima?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Lima?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
