I don't know where to begin.My parents took a Yampu trip to Peru 15 years ago and never stopped raving about it. My husband and I finally had the chance and we are so glad we did. Jose & his team were constantly available during the planning phase. Accommodated our requests gave up exactly what we were hoping for.Things I didn't expect during our trip was how VIP we were treated. There were upgrades in hotels that we didn't even know about, the guides and drivers were all delightful and excited to teach us. I had a strange request related to my career and the team was able to pull it off for me, even better than I had hoped for.Something I must say is that I have never taken a trip coordinated by a third party. I have traveled much through my life, and every other time my family planned the trips. There's something to be said about giving that work away and letting someone else deal with those headaches. Coordinating rides, calculating schedules, meals, figuring out which places are the most important to visit... Yampu shouldered all of that and I was MUCH less stressed before the trip. I definitely recommend Yampu, especially if you are going someplace super different and unfamiliar. Or if you are not a fan of coordinating lots of tiny details.Or if you want to feel like royalty while on your trip :)
We have been using Yampu for close to 20 years to plan our many trips. Stephanie is the most helpful, responsive and thoughtful tour planner! She gave us an itinerary for Japan that exactly met all our requests. Even while we were travelling, Yampu's local partners were able to make changes or modify our schedule "on the fly." We can't wait for our next Yampu trip! M & J, New York
We had another wonderful experience with Yampu, thanks to the expert skills of Stephanie in creating and organizing our intensive itinerary. She listens carefully and is sure to provide an experience that meets and exceeds expectations. The in country local Yampu were excellent in addressing last minute changes to the schedule, so our travels were worry free. We will definitely continue to work with Stephanie and Yampu and highly recommend both.Sally and Keith
I would like to thank Yampu Tours for assembling a wonderful nine-day trip to Chiapas and Oaxaca states in Mexico in February, 2025.The sights for which Yampu arranged visits and the accomodations they chose were unique, fascinating and charming. The schedules were busy and full of interest but not overwhelming. The tour guides were warm and accommodating, deeply knowledgeable and fluent in English. The drivers were interesting and skilled at traversing the mountain roads and all those topes! The two states of Chiapas and Oaxaca, and their marvelous colonial-era cities of San Cristobal de las Casas and Oaxaca city are colorful, historic and highly scenic, and the ruins of Palenque, Monte Alban and Mitla amply illustrate the rich, diverse and deeply ancient cultural roots of Mexican civilization.I would especially like to commend the in-country guides Gabriel (Palenque to Agua Azul), Jesus (Palenque to San Cristobal), Angelina (San Cristobal to Sumidero Canyon), and Alex (Oaxaca) for their extensive knowledge and kind company. Yampu’s choices of hotel—notably Piedras de Agua in Palenque, Guayaba Inn in San Cristobal, and Hotel Pug Seal in Oaxaca—were unique, comfortable small inns with large, comfortable rooms and lovely garden courtyards and nice breakfasts.AeroMexico’s flights booked by Yampu, despite the inevitable 3-hour layovers in Mexico City International airport, were efficient, cordial and comfortable and delivered me to my destinations on time. AeroMexico’s terminal 2 at Mexico City is crowded but has ample shopping and food choices to pass the layover time; it is substantially more comfortable for transit than terminal 1. Paying the surcharge for AM-plus seating is worth the cost for the extra leg room and early access to the overhead bins for carry-on luggage.Working with Yampu's management and staff, and their in-country colleagues to assemble this tour was easy and delightful.
Yampu Tours and Monica knocked it out of the park! My Wife and I had such a good time in Thailand it was a once in a lifetime trip for us. As for the hotels they chose we were very pleased, every place was unique and clean and the staff were very nice and accommodating. All of our guides were amazing and friendly and knowledgable. The speed boat trip to James Bond island and the elephants in chiang mai were hands down the best highlights of the whole trip. We really appreciate that Monica was able to work within our budget and I don’t think we could’ve had a better time.
This was another great vacation for us! Stephanie Rudolph did her magic again and created a perfect vacation for us! After working with us for so many years, she knows exactly what we like and never disappoints. Her vacations for us are always a real treat to see what special things she has planned that make it both what everyone needs to see when visiting a location, but also what the locals love or do not have a chance to experience. Even our local guide got to do a few things she had never done before and she loved our excursions also. It was a great vacation - THANK YOU Stephanie, you are the BEST!!!!
