North Coast Tours, Tickets & Excursions

"This company was super helpful from the time we booked the tour till we completed the tour. Our tour guy is very knowledgeable and knows all the history however his presentation can be better. We would like to be informed along the way about going to the next destination. He was quite quiet but still very goo about the history."

"Well-informed guide. Alfredo not only knew about the archeological artifacts and historical records, he was able to answer all questions that our group asked."

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about Runa Turismo! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and well read about the places we visited and the history. We enjoyed our tour so much we scheduled another for the next day. Seeing the Lord of Sipan museum, Ventarron, Tucume, Eten, and other amazing places made our trip so wonderful. Runa was accommodating of our travel with an infant and our guide was patient whenever we needed to attend to the baby’s needs. He showed us many parts of archaeological sites that might otherwise be overlooked and even took some amazing photos of the birds and wildlife in the carob forest outside of Huaca de las Balsas. We learned so much and had an amazing adventure. If you’re considering a tour, you should absolutely go with Runa, I can’t imagine that you’ll get a better experience elsewhere."

"Great experience. Long day and it was great learning about the different civilization. In the middle of the trip we ended up going to a restaurant with a cute dance. I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. -Entrance tickets were not included but were reasonably priced. I would def book again."

"This tour is a great intro to two pre-Incan civilizations that are virtually unknown outside of Peru. Plus a side trip to Huanchaco and an excellent seaside lunch. Our guide was very knowledgeable and his enthusiasm was very contagious. Great tour!"

"Clara our guide was lovely, with passion and in depth knowledge of Trujillo and the Chimu people. Only downside was no port pick up or drop off for cruises, so suggest you pre book a taxi from port to town. It's about 45 mins, and should be 15 to 20 dollars."

"El guia es excelente y lo recomendo por complento! Es muy amable, cuida muy bien a sus clientes. I recommend this tour and this guide to everyone, very professional and well informed, and even helped me to plan other parts of my trip to Northern Peru!"

"This was my first visit to Peru and the tours that I had set up while visiting friends were fantastic. Our Guide for the Batan Grande Tour was extremely knowledgeable and very Friendly. I suggest if you do take this tour you ask for Rosario, she was the best. Her years of experience made the tour extremely interesting while walking through dried out river beds and scant forest areas. December was the pre-summer months with little tourists around and the weather was beautiful summer in Peru compared to the Frigid temps in NYC. Rosario helped all along the tour always asking if we had any questions. My girlfriend and I had many stories to tell after the tour and both agreed that we would take the tour again only if Rosario was the Guide."

"We had one full day in Chiclayo and this tour was the only one that we could find that covered all the places we wanted to see. Our tour guide, Miguel was punctual, knowledgeable, attentive, and friendly. Our driver, Elmer, was also friendly and a safe driver. We went to all the stops listed on the itinerary, which does not always happen. The museums were exceptional and the archaeological sites amazing.. we highly recommend this tour!"
