bonjour,
Nous souhaitons partir au Perou en aout 2016 sur trois semaines
Nous aimerions avoir le témoignage de quinqua qui sont partis sans passer par une agence
Pour le moment nous ne sommes pas encore décides (agence ou pas)
merci pour toutes les informations que vous pourriez nous donner
Claudie et Jean mi
Bonsoir,
Nous sommes sexas et notre témoignage pourra sans doute t'intéresser. Nous avons organisé notre voyage nous-mêmes (ce forum est une mine d'informations) en faisant le très classique tour du Sud Pérou : Lima, Paracas, Nasca, Arequipa, lac Titicaca, Cusco et Machu Picchu.
La partie Pérou de notre blog commence ici.
Je suis assez tranché sur le sujet : pourquoi passer par une agence, qui va vous demander de payer un prix exorbitant, pour quelque chose que vous pouvez organiser par vous-même, sinon mieux ? Car avec une agence, ce sera un circuit classique, sans charme, avec des hôtels et des restaurants touristiques fréquentés par beaucoup de monde, le tout au pas de course dans un groupe plus ou moins important. Bof bof…
Je vis au Pérou depuis maintenant 8 ans et je peux vous garantir que c’est un pays parfait pour partir à l’aventure, au gré de ses envies et coups de cœur : l’offre hôtelière est conséquente, les transports sont adaptés aux grandes distances, et la multitude de choses à découvrir en terme de sites, de culture, et de gastronomie entre autres, vous permettront de voyager en indépendant, pour moins cher et mieux.
Beaucoup de récits de voyage sont consultables sur la toile pour vous donner des idées.
Bonjour Marie Claude
Si tu peux me donner des infos;
quels documents administratifs faut il pour aller au Pérou et si escale dans un autre pays?
Quelle visite à Lima, dormir dans le centre ou quartiers plus retirés
Taxi: combien cela coute de l’aéroport de Jorge Chavez au centre de Lima? Peut on utiliser d'autres transports?
Transport bus Métropolitano, est ce pratique avec les cartes magnétiques a recharger ou quels autres transports utilisés
Pour visiter Machu Pitchu? comment as tu fait avec tes bagages dans le sens ou tu ne peux pas dépasser 5 kg de bagage pour prendre le train
Es tu parti seulement avec un sac a dos ou comment gerer ses bagages quand on change chaque jour de destination
Faut il réserver les hôtels , les billets pour les visites via internet si possible ou sur place, sachant que l'on va partir trois semaines en aout
Voila, si tu peux medire comment tu as organisé ton voyage.....
Dans l'attente de te lire,
Claudie
quels documents administratifs faut il pour aller au Pérou et si escale dans un autre pays?
Passeport en cours de validité, avec une date de validité postérieure à ta date de retour (beaucoup de pays demandent six mois mais cela ne semble pas le cas ici)
Je te conseille de lire les mises en garde du gouvernement français à propos du Pérou. Inutile de s'angoisser outre mesure mais il faut garder les risques à l'esprit et agir en conséquence : préférer les compagnies de bus spéciales touristes, ne pas quitter ses bagages des yeux (genre poser son sac par terre pour avoir les mains libres pour faire autre chose...) et surtout écouter les conseils des locaux, sur les taxis notamment). Très honnêtement, on les avait un peu oubliées après quelques jours (sauf pour les taxis) car on ne ressentait pas d'insécurité particulière mais bon, ce n'est pas forcément une bonne idée!!!
Quelle visite à Lima, dormir dans le centre ou quartiers plus retirés
Le centre ville de Lima est très sympa. Si vous disposez de peu de temps, vous pouvez vous contenter de deux jours à Lima, plutôt à la fin du voyage pour être sûrs d'êtres rentrés à temps pour votre vol retour (il peut y avoir des grèves ou des intempéries)
Nous avions choisi de dormir Chez Elizabeth qui est dans le quartier de San Isidro, non loin de Miraflores. C'est pratique pour aller à Miraflores et/ou dans le Centre car c'est tout près d'un arrêt Metropolitano et également très près de la gare de départ des bus Cruz del Sur.
Taxi: combien cela coûte de l’aéroport de Jorge Chavez au centre de Lima? Peut on utiliser d'autres transports?
Nous avions choisi de nous faire attendre par Elizabeth qui prend 60 soles pour le trajet. Ce doit être 10 soles de plus que le trajet en taxi normal mais c'est beaucoup plus sécurisant. Le quartier de l'aéroport a une très mauvaise réputation.
Transport bus Métropolitano, est ce pratique avec les cartes magnétiques a recharger ou quels autres transports utilisés
Très facile à utiliser, on recharge aux bornes. Je crois que nous n'avons utilisé que cela mais il y a aussi des bus.
Pour visiter Machu Picchu? comment as tu fait avec tes bagages dans le sens ou tu ne peux pas dépasser 5 kg de bagage pour prendre le train.
Nous avions laissé le gros de nos bagages à notre hôtel à Cusco. Les hôtels sont habitués, aussi bien à Cusco qu'à Ollantaytambo.
Es tu parti seulement avec un sac a dos ou comment gérer ses bagages quand on change chaque jour de destination
Oui, nous avions chacun un sac à dos plus un petit sac, nous avons pris l'habitude de voyager léger...
Faut il réserver les hôtels , les billets pour les visites via internet si possible ou sur place, sachant que l'on va partir trois semaines en aout
Il me semble que août est plutôt une période chargée (nous y étions en janvier), donc il est sûrement préférable de réserver. Il est très rare qu'un hôtel ou maison d'hôtes péruviens demandent une avance ou une garantie, il est donc préférable de réserver et de penser à annuler si on change ses plans. Il y a beaucoup d'hébergements et ils ne sont pas tous sur Internet donc on peut aussi laisser de la place pour l'improvisation. A vérifier avec ceux qui l'ont fait en août.
J'avais beaucoup réservé à l'avance (contrairement à nos habitudes) car notre timing était assez serré et on avait réservé un billet d'avion global incluant les vols internes.
Pour le détail de nos hébergements, tu peux regarder sur mon site, dans le menu à gauche, il y a le compte-rendu de notre expérience + des notes que j'avais glanées sur ce forum et dans les guides. Pour l'itinéraire, c'est à ces pages : programme et cartes.
Bonne suite de préparation et n'hésite pas à revenir pour des compléments.
Marie-Claude
Ce n'est pas obligatoire de passer par une agence pour visiter le Pérou, vous pouvez le préparez par vous même ou prendre les agences sur place si vous parlez un peu d'espagnol. Il y a même des agences qui ont des guides français à votre demande. La route typique, on vous a déjà dit, effectivement est approximativement en jours: Lima (2 jours), Paracas, sa réserve et la Huacachina (2 jours), Nasca (1 jour), Arequipa (4 jours) lac Titicaca (4 jours) Cusco et Machu Picchu (4/5 jours) puis vous devez vous donner un marge de quelques jours pour les imprévus et temps de voyage.
Si vous restez deux jours à Lima, vous pouvez vous loger chez ma mère, elle aimerait faire de sa maison une maison d'hôtes donc, j'essaye de l'aider. Moi, je suis péruvienne, mariée avec un français, j'habite à Lille. Si ça vous intéresse, vous pouvez consulter mon blog personnel sur facebook: "bienvenue au Pérou": www.facebook.com/voyageperoulima/.
Si vous vous logez chez elle à Lima avec plaisir elle va vous donner des conseils sur les lieux à connaître et visiter et si vous voulez elle peut même vous accompagner sans compromis pour vous promenades sur Lima, elle aime faire visiter sa ville et se promener! Enfin, vous pouvez venir sur mon blog personnel et me demander des informations en interne. Sinon mon adresse mail est:
nady_o@hotmail. Avec un "o" pas un zéro.
Je suis à votre disposition si vous le souhaitez!
Au plaisir d'avoir de vos nouvelles!

Hi everyone! So happy to be back on this forum—it’s packed with such useful info! 🙂 My husband and I are planning a 2.5-week self-drive trip to Colombia at the end of the year, including some domestic flights. My first question is: is it possible, easy, and safe to do a road trip in Colombia?
Below is our draft itinerary (with questions at each stop):
29/11: France → Colombia. Overnight in Bogotá.
30/11: Exploring Bogotá: La Candelaria and Montserrate.
01/12: Gold Museum (closed on Mondays). Drive to Zipaquirá (1.5 hrs) to visit the Salt Cathedral. Then drive to Villa de Leyva (3 hrs). Explore the town. Overnight in Villa de Leyva.
02/12: Return to Bogotá via Laguna de Guatavita (5 hrs). Is it worth the detour? Overnight in Bogotá.
03/12: Flight to Pereira. Drive to Salento. Overnight in Salento.
04/12: Cocora Valley (hike among the wax palms) followed by a drive around the area. Are there any waterfalls or other sights nearby?
05/12: Visit a coffee finca—any recommendations? Then explore the surroundings: Filandia, Manizales, waterfalls? Hot springs? Which ones?
06/12: Flight to Medellín.
07/12: Exploring Medellín: Centro, Plaza Botero, Comuna 13. How do you visit Comuna 13? Is it easy to get around Medellín? Metro? Buses?
08/12: Drive to Guatapé (2 hrs). Visit the town, stroll around the lake, then El Peñol. Overnight in Guatapé.
09/12: Return to Medellín.
10/12: Flight to Santa Marta. Drive to a hotel near Tayrona Park.
11/12: Tayrona—El Zaino entrance.
12/12: Tayrona—Palangana entrance, then Bahia Concha and Santa Marta. What do you think?
13/12: Drive to Minca (45 mins). Can we reach the village by car? Pozo Azul and Marinka waterfalls. Overnight in Minca (or back in Tayrona?).
14/12: Drive to Puerto Nao (5 hrs). Stop in Ciénaga on the way + boat tour in Nueva Venecia and/or Buena Vista? Not enough time? Overnight in Puerto Nao.
15/12: Exploring Cartagena: Centro, Getsemaní, the walls + La Boquilla if we have time.
16/12: La Boquilla (is it really worth it?) if we didn’t have time yesterday, then back to the beach.
17/12: Return to France.
So, what do you think? Is this doable, or should we tweak it? Thanks in advance for your invaluable feedback and tips! 🙂
Hi there, we’ve decided to head to Brazil at the end of March for 2.5 weeks with our 13-year-old son. From what I’ve gathered from some research, Rio seems like a great destination at this time of year, and I’m thinking around 4-5 days to explore it—does that sound right to you? Copacabana, Ipanema, Sugarloaf Mountain, Christ the Redeemer, maybe a favela tour, or any other ideas?
How’s the best way to get around locally? I’ve heard about Bonito or Angra dos Reis and Ilha Grande—what do you think of those? Fernando de Noronha for snorkeling or even diving? Is Recife a good option at this time of year?
If you’ve got any suggestions, we’re all ears—it’s for our 50th birthdays! :-) Thanks so much for your help and tips. See you soon.
Hi there, I’m looking for recent info on a boat trip with sleeping accommodations from Belém to Santarém. I don’t want a "luxury cruise for wealthy tourists"—just a bed with a minimum of comfort seems great to me🙂. I didn’t find any up-to-date details with Amazon Star. Do you have any companies, guides, or prices for this route to recommend?
I’d love to hear tips and feedback on this trip, especially since I’m traveling solo. I’d like to get a sense of what to expect and ensure some basic safety with transportation.
Thanks.
Hi everyone,
We’re planning 40 days in Uruguay and Argentina in February and March, trying to avoid as much rain as possible.
We’re thinking of starting in Buenos Aires, then heading to Bariloche, and from there flying to Córdoba, Mendoza, or Salta. Maybe by bus or renting a car to explore each region.
Do you have any suggestions or tips for us? We love picturesque, historic cities and landscapes. As seasoned travelers, we’re used to planning our trips ourselves.
Thanks in advance!
We’ve planned our road trip in Chile, and the only thing left is to book the TABSA ferry from Punta Arenas to Puerto Williams.
Problem: the ferry that leaves Punta Arenas at 1 AM isn’t available for booking, no matter the day or month. All the other departures can be booked, though.
On top of that, Tabsa isn’t responding to any messages.
We’re planning to explore Peru’s main highlights and were wondering if anyone could share insights on the quality and comfort of overnight buses. If so, which bus company should we trust?
Hi,
My wife and I are heading to Brazil from November 6th to December 2nd. We’ll be stopping in São Paulo, Paraty, Ilha Grande, Rio, and Salvador de Bahia.
Could you recommend some nice, non-luxury places to stay in each of these spots?
Also, any suggestions for places to visit would be great.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Marc
Hi there.
I already posted a message asking for advice about our upcoming trip to Chile.
Details: Getting around by bus or train.
Starting from Valparaiso, heading north, passing through cities and places to visit, then returning to Santiago via a different route.
Avoid the beaches...
Thanks
Hello,
my wife and I will be in Cusco for a week in March 2027.
I’d like to organize the visit to the site on our own, combining the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu.
We’d leave Cusco on Day 1 to arrive at the site in the morning, then stay in Aguas Calientes or Ollantaytambo, and on Day 2 return to Cusco while visiting the Sacred Valley.
Is this doable?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Cédric.
Hello,
We’re spending 3 weeks in Rio between February 20 and March 15, 2027, to visit our son and daughter-in-law. We’re thinking of one or two "escapes" from Rio—3-day trips to get away from the city (so not too far, max 3–4 hours by car or bus). We’re all ears for suggestions! We love beautiful nature and authentic experiences, not so much the touristy spots... even though those spots are often in beautiful places, we’d rather avoid them.
Thanks for your insights!

Hi there,
I’m planning a trip with my partner (no kids this time—thanks, Grandma!) for two weeks to celebrate her 40th birthday. I’ve been thinking about Chile. We’re looking at leaving around September 18, 2027, starting in the south and returning in early April.
Here’s what I had in mind:
8 nights in a van in the Lake District and the start of the Carretera Austral (up to the Chaitén area). We’re set to arrive in Puerto Montt around 2:00 PM. We don’t want to go too far south since we’re planning to explore the heart of Patagonia (Chile and Argentina) with the kids when they’re older. The idea is to spend 3 nights discovering the lakes (up to Cochamó) and 3 nights in Pumalín Park. I’ve also added two transition nights.
7 nights in the Atacama to experience another side of Chile (San Pedro), taking a domestic flight from Puerto Montt to Calama in the early afternoon. We’ll depart for France in the early evening from Santiago.
IMPORTANT NOTICE for those planning to take a bus to another city, state, or destination from Salvador!
Starting January 20, 2026, the intercity bus station Rodoviária is changing its address!
The Rodoviária is leaving the Iguatemi area and will now be located in ÁGUAS CLARAS (about twenty kilometers from downtown Salvador).
A brand-new station (the most modern in Brazil) has just been set up there, accessible by car/taxi/Uber/metro.
Allow for much more transfer time (especially during rush hours), so leave early if you're heading to Chapada Diamantina or other Brazilian cities by bus.
Remember, there are also private transfers (even French-speaking ones) that can take you directly from your hotel in Salvador to your hotel in Chapada. Sure, it’ll be more expensive, but you’ll save on transfer time and comfort.
Tropical greetings from Salvador,

Hello,
We’re thinking of spending 1 month in Chile, maybe doing a loop?
From 12/23 to 01/22.
What are the must-see sights, given we’re more interested in the country’s cultural side than the beaches?
Thanks
Hi everyone,
We're planning a trip to southern Chile in November. Here's our tentative itinerary:
Day 1: Arrival in Santiago, then a flight the next day to Balmaceda where we'll pick up a rental car to reach Coyhaique.
Day 3: Walk in the Coyhaique National Reserve, then continue to Puerto Chacabuco. Return to Coyhaique for the second night.
Day 4: Drive to Villa Cerro Castillo for a hike in the national park. Continue to Puerto Tranquilo and stay there for 3 nights.
Day 5: Boat tour on Laguna San Rafael.
Day 6: Day trip to Monte San Valentin Glacier.
Day 7: Excursion to the Marble Chapels, then drive to Puerto Guadal. We'll stay there for 3 nights.
Day 8: Walk along Lago Carrera and return to Puerto Guadal.
Day 9: Rio Baker Valley and, if possible, a glacier excursion.
Day 10: Drive to Cochrane and hike in Tamango National Reserve. We'll stay 2 nights in Cochrane.
Day 11: Walk in the Chacabuco Valley.
Day 12: Drive to Caleta Tortel. We'll stay there for 2 nights.
Day 13: Cruise in the Rio Baker delta.
Day 14: Return to Cochrane.
Day 15: Return to Balmaceda in two stages.
Day 16: Continue the return journey.
Day 17: Return the rental car and head back to Santiago.
After this, we're also planning to explore northern Santiago. I'll post about that part once I have a clearer idea of the route.
What do you think of this itinerary? Is it doable in 17 days?
Thanks in advance for your tips and recommendations.

Hi there, I’ll be in Brazil from December 10th to the end of February.
I’ve sketched out a rough itinerary but I’m not sure how to arrange it—considering the climate, year-end holidays, and Carnival.
Basically, I’m thinking of the Amazon, the Northeast coast with Lençóis Maranhenses National Park (but skipping Chapada Diamantina),
Ouro Preto, Paraty, and Ilha Grande—but no Rio visit.
Is this doable in 3 months?
Which direction should I take for this itinerary?
Thanks in advance!
Hi everyone, does anyone know the agency Ventura Travel Agency (not ventura travel)? After lots of research and quotes, it’s the only one offering Uyuni at a reasonable price while meeting all the criteria: transfer to the border, private-room accommodation, and a very fair rate. Other agencies or guides either offer shared rooms, no border transfer, or prices that are way too high. But I’d love to hear some reviews about this agency. Thanks in advance!
Hi everyone,
We're planning a trip to Chile to visit the Atacama Desert and then head toward Putre, Lauca, Salar de Surire, etc.
Which would be the better time to go, April or November?
Is an SUV enough?
Looking forward to your tips!
Hi everyone, French travelers in Chile—what credit cards do you use for your various car rentals in the country? I’m traveling in September and was planning to switch my regular debit card (a VISA PREMIER in deferred debit mode) for the deposit guarantee.
My rentals are with Figal in Punta Arenas, Econautos in Arica, and Chilean Rent a Car in Temuco, and all of them want the deposit on a credit card. For me, deferred debit *should* work, but I’ve read comments saying the opposite.
How’s it actually working on the ground with these rental companies right now? Will a deferred debit card work, or not at all?
In France, banks don’t issue credit cards, right—or am I mistaken?
Hi everyone, is it still possible to travel in Ecuador outside the Amazon region? If so, do you have a reliable agency to recommend? All your recent experiences from the past few months would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much
Hi,
We’re heading to Buenos Aires for 3 days in November and would like to do a guided tour of a few neighborhoods. There are "free" tours, but none in French. Does anyone have a guide to recommend so we can really get to know the city beyond just the architecture?
Thanks
Hi there,
I’m desperately looking for info on the schedules and routes of (shared) boats to visit the islands of Lake Titicaca.
From what I’ve found, there’s a *combi* (bus) that leaves from Puno to go to Llachon. Where do you catch it? What are the schedules and frequency? Does it take about 1 hour?
Then in Llachon, you can take a boat to Amantani (45 min). Same question—where do you check for frequency and schedule?
After that, from Amantani, boats go to Taquile and then Uros. Do you have enough time to visit the islands between two boats? Frequency and schedule?
The goal is to do this tour independently (no agency) over 2 days. Thanks for any tips you might have!
I just got back from a trip to Bolivia and wow—what a wake-up call. It’s not the easiest country, but it’s absolutely stunning.
I started with Isla del Sol, perfect for easing into the altitude at a relaxed pace. Try to stay in the northern part of the island—it’s quieter and the views are insane. And the trout there? Unreal. Quick tip: bring cash in small bills; they almost never have change, and cards are rarely accepted.
Next up, La Paz. The city’s pretty wild, built in every direction. I did a few hikes in the area, including the famous Charquini Lagoon (the blue lake) at over 5,000 m—let’s just say I struggled 😅 but it was so beautiful it was totally worth it.
After that, I headed to Sajama. It’s cool, especially for the hot springs, and I stayed in Tomarapi. But honestly, if you’re short on time, you can skip it without too many regrets.
The highlight of the trip: the Salar. I did it starting from Tupiza, and I *highly* recommend going Tupiza → Uyuni. Way less crowded at the start and the landscapes are super varied. For the tour, I used SplitYourGuide to find a group, and it worked out great. Super handy for splitting costs and meeting people.
I wrapped up in Sucre—this city is gorgeous, all white, with such a chill vibe. And the salteñas + ice cream? Next level 😋
Bottom line: Bolivia’s a bit rough around the edges, sometimes exhausting (shoutout to the altitude), but it’s 1000% worth it.
If you’ve got questions or need tips, I’m happy to help!

I was planning to go to Réunion and stay in half-board accommodation with non-professionals, but it seems that’s not really the custom there—or maybe my budget isn’t big enough.
So, since I’ve already traveled around Ecuador and Peru, I’m now looking at Argentina, especially for its mountains (like the ones in Réunion that tempted me, even though—frustratingly—I could only admire them from below).
I plan to get around by bus and don’t know in advance where I’ll sleep, so I won’t book ahead. If I like a place, I might stay for several days.
I know that in Chile, it’s easy to find half-board accommodation, but what about in Argentina?
I’d like to stay with locals in half-board without it being a professional setup. I’m not sure if this is common practice there. It’s up to me to find someone willing to host me.
What do you think?
What would be a fair price (keeping in mind that 40 to 50 € is the max I can spend on accommodation, breakfast, and dinner)?
Hi everyone,
We’re heading to Patagonia for three weeks in November, starting from Coyhaique in Chile.
We won’t have a car, and I’m struggling to find information about transportation options for a few parts of the itinerary we’d like to do:
1) From Perito Moreno (the town, near Los Antiguos), we’d like to travel down Ruta 40 to visit Perito Moreno National Park and then cross into Chile via the Paso Roballos (at the latitude of Bajo Caracoles) to reach the road to Cochrane. Without a car, it seems we’ll need to use private agencies to get to the national park—do you have any recommendations or suggestions? Also, does anyone know if it’s possible to cross into Chile via Paso Roballos (from Bajo Caracoles) without a rental car? That is, without having to go all the way down to El Chaltén or back up toward Perito Moreno/Los Antiguos, etc.?
2) The second stretch that seems a bit tricky (though still easier, in theory) is from Caleta Tortel to Villa O’Higgins on the Chilean side. Do we have to go back through Cochrane, or are there ways to get directly from Tortel to Villa O’Higgins?
3) Finally, we’d like to hike into Argentina (El Chaltén) from O’Higgins. Any recommendations for this? Do we need to go through an agency? What’s the estimated duration of the trek?
As you’ve probably gathered, we want to visit some off-the-beaten-path spots but don’t have a car, so we’re looking for the best possible compromises.
Thanks so much in advance for all your suggestions!

Hi,
we’re planning a round trip from San Pedro de Atacama, Chile, to Salta, Argentina, in two months. On the way there, we’ll take the northern route via Susques, Route 27, then 52. But for the return, we were thinking of taking the southern route via San Antonio de los Cobres, Route 51, then 23. Is it similar to the northern route in terms of road surface? How busy is it, and are there gas stations? Basically, should we be worried about doing it in an SUV that’s supposedly 4x4 but has regular road tires and no second spare wheel, obviously...
I’ve seen that we can stop over in San Antonio de los Cobres.
Thanks for your feedback.
Raf.
Hi,
we’ll be in Calama at the end of March 2026, and I’m looking for a reliable car rental there for a 7-day road trip to Salta, Argentina. But I’m struggling with the car rental agencies in Calama because the reviews can be scary. I saw Gyg, which has great ratings, but I’m a bit wary (5/5 from 59 reviews—either the guy’s amazing or it’s fake...), but I can’t find any recent reviews on VF in general.
For Punta Arenas, I booked with Dachelet and didn’t have any issues with email exchanges.
Thanks in advance.
Raf.
I’m planning the trip of my dreams for next November—Chile!
I’d love to get your thoughts on my potential itinerary. I know it’s a big investment in terms of both time and money, so every bit of feedback, suggestion, or info helps immensely. Thank you in advance!!
