"We had a wonderful experience"

We went to Peru and Bolivia, Lost World Adventures agents lined out the itinerary just the way we wanted and the local tour agents and drivers were all on time and very nice and informative. I was very nervous about trusting an online travel ageny . But everything was wonderful. I would use them again.
