Sacred valley tour with Charly Machi Picchu tours - The tour was very well planned and communicated, Charley and Machu Picchu tours and our drivers Alfred, Ferdinand took care of everything - pick up from hotel, a comfortable van for our family, prearranged tickets, coco tea/candy for us ready in van, all our food and language considerations taken care of. We covered Pisac, Ollantaytambo, Maras and Moray and even included a great lunch at one of the best Peruvian buffets. Our guide Charley is super knowledgeable, patient friendly, great with kids, has a passion and zeal for his culture and eagerness to share every detail. Definitely recommended 5 stars!

Amazing Inca culture, excellent guide - Exceptional personalized tour! Despite being the only participant, Adolfo, the guide, made the experience incredible. His deep knowledge and attention filled the tour with lively insights into Inca culture. Visiting 5 sites might seem rushed, but it’s worth every moment, especially for those short on time in Cusco. Highly recommended!

Excellent Private Tour of Maras Moray - Amazing experience with Bernabe and our driver for a private tour of Maras Moray. My friend and I were picked up from our hotel at 8am and driven to each site, returning about 2:30pm. The tour included a visit to Centro Texti URPI where we got to feed guinea pigs, alpacas and llamas and learn about weaving and textile traditions. We stopped at a beautiful viewpoint overlooking the Sacred Valley and visited Maras and then the salt mines. Bernabe was extremely friendly, knowledgeable and happy to answer all questions we had about Peruvian culture and history. He was very open and had good humour making the tour feel like having a conversation with a friend showing us around. Would highly recommend Machu Picchu Tours and would look to book with them for any future adventures in Peru!

A trip like no other - I am intrigued the way John organised the tour. It was a perfect combination of fun, sightseeing and information. We visited five sites and each had its own story and prominence during the Inca times and some continue to be even today. John had a very good passion for the history and in explaining things in detail. He also spoke good English. The lunch they served during the tour was very nice and freshly prepared which gave us a detailed introduction to the Peruvian gastronomy.
