Rough Guides Tailor-made trips reviews

Our tailor-made trips are all planned by local experts – who work for tour operators on the ground – so that all the pesky planning details are taken care of for you. Their know-how, and 24/7 support, makes travel truly stress-free. But don’t just take our word for it: these reviews are all written by real travellers who have booked a tailor-made trip with Rough Guides. Every traveller is asked to leave a review after their trip, but you can leave one before you go, too.

“I would like to sincerely thank your Ms. Camila and her team for planning such a wonderful and unforgettable private trip to Bolivia for me. Though the weather was colder than that I expected, every part of the journey was thoughtfully arranged, and I truly appreciated how smoothly everything went from start to finish. Your care, attention to detail, and support made me feel completely at ease, allowing me to fully enjoy the beauty and unique experiences of Bolivia. It was such a special trip, and I will always remember it fondly. Thank you again for all your hard work and dedication and I am truly grateful for everything you have done to make this journey so memorable.”

21-day couple trip to Peru

“The experience we had in Peru was outstanding. From the outset the organisation of the trip by Rough Guide was perfect and we did not have to worry about any aspect of the holiday. Maria Jose and her team in Peru were responsible for this organisation which went according to plan. One of the aspects of the holiday we enjoyed was the structure of the trips to various sites in which different agents were used so we met a variety of people through the course of the holiday. Each trip had an experienced and informative guide. This was the first time we used Rough Guides and were rewarded with a excellent holiday that we will always remember.”
