The best guide we had - The experience was fantastic. Edu was by far the best guide we’ve met in Peru! He has broad knowledge of Inca period and Machu Picchu history, bringing relevant and scientific facts about it. He’s also an amazing photographer, he knows all the best spots to take pics! Edu, thank you so much, you are the best!

Great service, if you want to do more than walk through ruins without understanding - Ruth was awesome; knew her stuff and was happy to share. Did not crumble against our onslaught of questions, and provided a genuine appreciation and understanding of the world wonder that is Machu Piccu.

Very organized and informative tour - Edu was everything we were looking for in a guide for Macchu Pichu - extremely knowledgeable, patient and engaging. He was very accommodating and communicative prior to the tour, and ensured we walked slowly for my parents, who are older. We would highly recommend Edu and this tour to others.

A great experience - I booked this tour guide last minute and made a few changes but they accommodated and give great advised, really appreciated. On the tour itself, Edu was very knowledged and share all the information which is very helpful (you would not have gathered/know alot if you go by yourself). The whole tour was not rush at all and have ample of time to take pictures. Highly recommend.

Machu Picchu com Nancy - We went with Guide Nancy. She was excellent and explained everything in Portuguese, something hard to find in Cusco. It was our best ride in the whole trip

Machu Pichu tour - My friends and I had a great time exploring Machu Pichu with our private guide. Edu is a great guide! Very knowledgeable, knows the history of Machu Pichu by heart. Communication was also great before and after the tour. A plus is that he knows all the great spots to make beautiful pictures. Many thanks, Edu!

Ruth is the best! - Our guide, named Ruth, was a wonderful and knowledgeable person. She spoke clear English, matched the pace of the tour we wanted, and even helped us find our backpack we lost early into the tour! She also took wonderful pictures. My finance and I got engaged during the tour, and she took many good pictures of us! 100% recommend 😀

Expert on history and taking amazing pictures - Our tour guide was Edward. Our train was delayed due to unforeseen reasons. He was patiently waiting for us and guide us on how to buy the bus tickets. We had hard time walking around the secret valley because we didn’t give enough time to get acclimated to the altitude and he was very patient to take the necessary breaks.
He was very knowledgeable and his explanations made the visit worthwhile. He offered to take pictures and advise us where to take the pictures. We were exhausted due to the early train ride and coming home and reviewing the pictures made me value the visit even more. I highly recommend to take the tour with Edward.
