Hi guys here i leave a note on how to recognize a legal and a good travel agency, remember that twe what that u have an excellent experience while you stay on our country ... I hope they serve to help and to come soon! ... if you have any questions, feel free to leave comments.

What we need to consider before hiring a tour? If you want to leave home and enjoy a relaxing time away from home. There are days when, in the company of family or friends-are useful to know new cities and explore its tourist attractions, and for that many times are we going to an agency to handle the tours. Before hiring a service must be sure that our choice would be good and do not run risk of being deceived or cheated us. How to recognize which agencies are formal and which ones are not? "What any user should have in mind is that the agency has a municipal license and registration with the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Tourism (Mincetur). These are certificates that are displayed to the public by a legal nature, "said Publio Santander, president of the Peruvian Association of Travel and Tourism (APAVIT). With these two licenses users will have the certainty that will be able to raise a claim for bad service or breach of contract. So what happens if agencies are licensed only local but not the corresponding Dircetur? "These agencies are not necessarily formal and could not respond in the event that the client wishes to file a claim," he explains in dialogue with elcomercio.pe.

Typical dance of peru: La Marinera

Telling a story...

The music starts and they look at each other in the eye, through the distance that measures the assumed challenge. She, the female always safe, always graceful, always first, raises his handkerchief and waving with matchless grace smiling at love and life and looking, in short, slow ride, all the charm, you know, the man wants to conquer . From afar he greets her hat in hand and announces, with its elegant and decisive step, which knows no escapes or negative, and that great connoisseur of the game, is dying of impatience to win ...Just start the game and players are impatient. And is that after having looked into the eyes, approaching almost afraid, greeting in the short meeting, the withdrawal does nothing to turn the desire. Now both are looking for the new contact, but now closer, more intimate, to enjoy a bit of sweet pleasure of mutual closeness. So retirement is brief, ephemeral, because music is close accomplice who announces the time expected, desired, almost pleading with the smile and the tissue in the fingers like a graceful dove flying to meet her lover .. .Now it is. The happy couple approaches, airy, between the challenge and the truce, between desire and fear. A turn around a sense, a return to re-join. The nimble feet take them very close to each other but cautioning that there is always a distance between the two, it is not prudent to give everything without having waited long enough. And while looking into his eyes he surrounds covering it with his arm and his hat, and inviting her to be his, only his and his movements salerosos she left, giving your man a pledge to achieve.Satisfaction and joy. Those who initially were distant dancers moved by a natural desire stirred with a little curiosity and a mischief, is now a happy pair, a pair of intrepid enthusiasts who enjoy the music license granted to seduce and lure another, with a smile, eyes, arms entangled playing, she holding the female skirt, he wearing his manly bearing, Conqueror conquered. The movement of the legs are stronger, more energetic, because the blood rushes hurriedly, through her veins, and its rapid pace and no one can stop it.A stomp away! Euphoria, elation, the immeasurable pleasure of shared joy, the joy of heartfelt unison. The chest brimming with enthusiasm and their faces full of happiness and excitement, face to face, smiling, happy, I say without words. She gathered her skirt seems to free the nimble feet "brush" the ground with the fury and the passion of her joy. The, I expressed content with the power of footwork and fierce delivery. It is a fact, there are no more truces, and music, with its end sound accompanies the couple on their most intimate union. The arm holding aloft the scarf, eyes bound, total surrender

Today we can distinguish three types of seafood, national dance is the ultimate expression of Peruvian Creole. 

The Marinera of Lima, in a major key, happy and lively, usually ends with a "slippery-and-run" faster motion. 

 The Coastal Marinera (from the North and South of the country) during the development of which is passed from the lowest to the highest pitch before returning to the lower run moving more alive than the Lima and it is always played twice, the birthplace of said "no first without the second". 

The Marinera Serrana, usually in a minor key and slower motion is repeated also adding to it, sometimes, a "leak wayno" whose vivacity, contrasts with the somewhat sentimental character of the first part. While accusing the maritime mountain, logically, traits of Indian origin in the coastal and seafaring in Lima you can find certain characteristics of Spanish origin, but giving them exceptional personality is his undoubted Negro past. A pircardía grace and music, something mocking the intent of your letter, join the melody turns typical cheerful and inviting, while the complex rhythmic interplay is reinforced by the drawer.

The influence of black has been established also in the choreography, where the courts and harass man, woman and causes elusive.  The musical accompaniment to the seafood is traditionally made with a set that consists of four guitars (custom are two such instrumentalist who also performed the vocals) and drawer, not ever missing the classic "slap" of singers and spectators.
