“El tour al Valle de Nepeña fue una sorpresa enorme. No esperaba encontrar tanta historia y naturaleza tan cerca de Chimbote. Las ruinas, los petroglifos y el paisaje del valle son fascinantes. El servicio de Kuyaiki fue muy atento y puntual. Es el tipo de tour que te hace redescubrir el Perú profundo.”
