IZI PERU

IZI PERU, a local tour operator for excursions across Peru

IZI PERU presents itself as a local travel agency based in Miraflores, Lima, dedicated to organising excursions throughout Peru. Its catalogue is broad: the company states that it runs over 200 excursions in more than 21 cities, spanning well-known destinations and places it describes as removed from mass tourism. The agency frames its offer around authentic travel, preserved cultures and landscapes that, in its own words, few travellers have had the chance to see.

Its activity covers day trips, multi-day treks and cultural stays, with departures linked to cities such as Lima, Cusco, Arequipa, Iquitos, Nazca, Mancora, Ayacucho, Puno, Ica, Huaraz and Chachapoyas. The company presents itself as a national tour operator and says it combines standard itineraries with exclusive experiences.

How the agency presents its service

The company argues its case for booking through it on four points: competitive rates, positive customer feedback, its status as a national tour operator with exclusive experiences, and customer support available every day of the week via WhatsApp. It also states that its team assists travellers in planning the journey and in reaching destinations it considers still unspoiled.

The website includes sections for a travel guide, frequently asked questions, terms and conditions, and a contact form for questions, enquiries and reservations.
