A spectacular day on tour. - We had a wonderful experience on this tour of the Sacred Valley, Moray and the Salineras de Maras. Each place was stunning, with spectacular scenery and lots of history to learn. Everything was very well organized, with adequate times at each stop and a very pleasant atmosphere throughout the tour. We would like to thank Felipe and Fernando, who were excellent guides. Very friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. They were always on the lookout and made the experience excellent. We recommend this tour 100%.

Highly recommend - I’ve never had a car door opened so often for me, thanks to driver Angel. Guide Rueben spoke excellent English and was super friendly and knowledgeable. The vehicle was extremely luxurious and clean, perfect for not being bounced around on the dirt roads. Would highly recommend, as we saw a lot in a short time frame, punctual, safe driver and great lunch included. 5 stars.

Amazing private tour Cusco to Ollantaytambo - Amazing day. Our guide Ruben was very knowledgeable and friendly, with great English. Rubén and our driver Fernando were very accommodating. Highly recommend, made it a low stress day, especially after lots of flying and with the high altitude. Would definitely use again for future tours.

Great experience with our tour guide Manuel! - I loved this tour! I booked 8pm the night before and Manuel our tour guide messaged me straight away to remind me about our 6:20am start the next day. They came on time and were very mindful of the time throughout the day! Manuel was very informative and was a great guide and spoke it both Spanish and English! I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to discover epic places near Cusco

Very nice experience - A combined experience, with different villages and all wonderful landscapes. In addition, Chinchero’s display on how alpaca wool is worked loved it: very dynamic and entertaining. I really enjoyed it. Besides, our guide Jhon was very nice. There was a small downside before departure due to an internal misunderstanding in the reservation, but in the end they resolved it, so it is somewhat minor. What is the activity was wonderful.

Great day! - Great tour! Our guide, John was very friendly and knowledgeable. The sites were very interesting and I loved the salt mine experience. In my opinion, the ollantaytambo ruins was the highlight. The lunch spot was beautiful lots of options but not as many for vegans. Highly recommend this tour for a taste of all the sites!
