Dear Ely

A quick note to thank you,  Kristy and everyone who was involved in making our trip to your country so memorable. We had a wonderful time and all the arrangements were perfect. There was only one slight hitch in Cusco when we were unsure of the time of pick-up but apart from that everything went according to plan. The staff was unbelievably helpful and prompt and our hotels were excellent.

Particularly helpful and knowledgeable were Dante in the Sacred Valley and Renan in Sun Island. These two were excellent guides.

We will send you more comments later.

Once again our thanks

Phil

Jessica,

First, thanks for taking care of us upon our arrival.  The switching in flight times was inconvenient, but you resolved quickly and for that we thank you.

I just wanted to follow up and give you my impressions of my trip.

Overall, it was the best vacation my wife and I have ever been on in our life.  We have been to Thailand, Korea, Ireland, etc…and this topped them all bar none.

As for the vacation:

Liberatador (Cusco) – great hotel, would recommend more guests there

Sumaq (Aguas Calientes) – best hotel we stayed in….rooms, restaurant, bar, etc were all great, wish we could have stayed longer

Mancora Bungalows – very nice beach hotel, views were terrific, the staff was terrific, especially Javier

Cusco 

·         Fernando was terrific, great guide and was very attentive to us

·         Guide for the City tour was great (sorry, do not have a name), wish there was more time at Susquayam

·         Sacred Valley Tour – could do without Pisac, market nothing special, saw the same in Cusco, the guide was just ok, nowhere near as good as the City tour guide, time could have better spent at other places

·         Machu Picchu – tour guide was good, but was way too short.  Maybe if people are spending the night, offer a full day tour option so that you can get more into the details.  One Complaint – the buffet at the Machu Picchu lodge was terrible, we ate downtown the next day and the buffet at Todos was much better and much cheaper

·         Mancora – great beach town, wish we could have stayed more time

·         Lima – city tour was good, guide was very knowledgeable and knew Lima well 

Other recommendations 

·         Arriving in Lima, the wait would have been too long to go to Cusco especially after flying from the US

·         Also, having to fly from Cusco to Lima and having an 8 hour layover to go to Mancora was way too much…..would have been better to fly out later from Cusco

·         LAN airlines was superior in our travels

·         Aerocondor – flight times stink, service was ok, and flight from Tumbes was cancelled which caused us to take a 3 hour taxi ride….I would never vacation again in Peru if I had to use this airline…sorry, but you should go with LAN for business. 

But in closing, thank you for a great vacation. 

Thanks.

Dearest Ana Fiorella,

I just wanted to say THANK YOU so much for everything you did to make my dream come true.

I had the most beautiful experience in Peru, in Machu Picchu, and I even climbed to the top of Wayna Picchu on July 7th, 2007! It was the ultimate experience! 

The tour guides were wonderful and everyone was so kind and courteous and caring, and I really did fall in love with the people of Peru!  

My favourite place besides Machu Picchu was Aguas Calientes....I would love to live there! 

On the train ride down the mountain on July 7th, there was a fashion show, and I bought myself an Alpalca Shawl...it is beautiful! I know I will use it this winter....sometimes it is -40* here in Northern Ontario in January, so the shawl will be a reminder of the warmth of the hearts of the people in Peru..... 

I told the people at the Hotel where I stayed in Cusco, that even if it appears that the Spaniards took all the gold out of the City of Cusco, they didn"t take it all, because the people I met there in Cusco and Aguas Calientes and Machu Picchu all have hearts of gold....the gold is in the hearts of the people....Peru"s greatest treasure is its people! 

Now my heart is saddened and grieving when I hear of the people who have suffered this earthquake in Peru....and my love and prayers are with them. 

Thank you so much, Ana Fiorella, for doing so much and working so hard to help me on my journey to Peru, and giving me so many beautiful memories..... 

Love, 

Martha Charmaine Gagnon

Dear Jessica,

Thank you for a wonderful, wonderful trip!

The sites you picked were fantastic, the guides were thorough and
knowledgeable, and the transportation was excellent.

We noted that every thing was on schedule, right on time, and we were
always given proper information.

This trip introduced us to Peru and we loved it!  The Peruvians we met
were really welcoming, friendly and helpful.  Because of GSateway Travel,
we felt like we got a great cross-section of the country.

So, thank you so much for your assistance.  We liked having emergency
contact numbers in each place and also knowing that we could reach you.

Peru is beautiful in all its aspects.  Thank you, thank you, thank you for
making it the trip of a lifetime.

Sincerely,
Alexis Crow and group

ps  Hope you didn"t suffer too much from the earthquake.  We were very
sorry about Ica.  We met a nice doctor in Cuzco that Maggie is going to
help with his medical care for the mountain village children.  Great fun!

Dear Angella, 

I hope this note finds you and your family well.  I am so sorry to hear about the terrible earthquake you have experienced in your country.  Please know that we have been praying for you and all who have suffered. 

You have made our trip to Peru wonderful and memorable.  I can't thank you enough for the smooth and easy experience.  We marvelled at the drivers who were there to drive us to our next location.....they were easy to find and always where we needed them to be.  And all of our reservations at hotels were perfect and very comfortable. 

I would recommend your travel company to anyone.  Christine and I both thank you so much for making our stay in Peru very enjoyable. 

Bless you, 

Gail Soave and Christine Griffin

Dear Christy,

Linda and I returned to Chicago last night exhausted, but very pleased with
our vacation and with the services of Peru Gateway Travel. With the
exception of one problem (our not being picked up at the Lima airport
following our return from Cusco on Friday the 17th) everything went as well
as could be expected. Your staff was friendly and competant. We were
impressed with the various tours that we took and the tour guides. The Inca
Trail was beyond our expectations, we were probably too old and out of shape
to try it, but the excellent guide (Angel Meza) did a phenomenal job of
helping us to succeed. When we wanted to change plans in the middle (one
fewer night in Agua Calientes, and an extra night in Cusco) your local
representatives put it all together.

So, I am writing to say thank you. And, to give you permission to use my
name or to refer potential clients who have questions to give me a call. I
will be happy to tell them that they will be in good hands if they make
their plans through your agency.

I forgot to include my gratitude to Fernando of Perugateway in Cusco.  His
help and humor were invaluable!
Thanks, again.

Peru Gateway 

Hola Amigos! 

We completed a trip organized by your group in early June.  We cannot tell you how pleased we were with the accommodations, meals, quality of guides, transportation and itinerary.  Everything went without a hitch.  Your staff, with whom we came in contact, was extremely friendly and helpful.  The size of the groups for our tours was perfect.  The staff who did the pick ups was very punctual and courteous.  When we decide to return to South America, we definitely will contact you for assistance.  We have already recommended your service to several of our friends, and will continue to do so. 

Thank you, again, for making our excursion into Peru such a delightful experience.

Sincerely, 

Art and Linda Wilson

Hi Jessica,

Just wanted to thank you and your company for all the great service you treated us to.  Everything went so smoothly and we had a super time.  As a matter of fact, we are hoping to get together again within a couple years for another journey to Peru -- to even more different areas -- as we have now found that Peru offers so much!   Also Paola, her husband and son were terrific and we were always so happy to see their smiling faces greeting us after every air trip.

With Kindest Regards,
                    Deborah Filcoff
