Fabulous Day, fabulous tour guide - We just returned from a perfect tour day. Our guide Jonathan, was incredible! Very knowledgeable, flexible and such a nice young man. And our driver, Percy, was excellent. We plan to refer this tour company and specifically Jonathan to others we know who are considering such a trip. Thank you, Jonathan!

Great Sacred Valley Tour - We did a private tour of the Sacred Valley with Inkayni Peru Tours. They were a great company to deal with as they kept us informed from the day we booked to the day of our tour. This is a great tour as it goes in the opposite direction of other Sacred Valley tour companies. We had Jaime-Yiyo as our guide and he was fantastic! He was knowledgeable, informative and spoke perfect English. He knew a lot of history. Our driver Bernardo was excellent and drove with safety in mind.

Excellent Tour and Guide - Excellent tour and guide. It's the only way to see the area with an understanding. You really can't do it on your own. We had a great bus and driver and guide for our party of 4. Our guide spoke perfect English and was quite knowledgeable. I will say, when you see how the wool is made and have an opportunity to buy you really should take full advantage. We bought a few scarves thinking we would see the same quality and prices other places, but we really didn't. The quality and prices were unmatched. It's a full day from Cusco. Take some cash. You'll pay an Enterance fee the first place you go and they'll give you a ticket. Keep the ticket; it's your Enterance fee to other stops as well. We felt this was very good value for our money. We highly recommend this tour.

Outstanding Service and Experience - Our travel advisor with Tierra Viva Hotels organized our private tours for us. She arranged tours with the best guide in the Sacred Valley, Dionel Baca Collantes. Dionel was our guide for the tour of the Pisaq ruins and town/market. He is exceptionally knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the Sacred Valley and brings it to life right before your eyes. Dionel goes above and beyond to personalize the experience too, which we truly appreciated. We requested Dionel for other tours during our stay. So, he also gave us tours of Ollantaytambo and the Cusco City Tour too. Dionel made each experience feel special. The Scared Valley is a region that can offer transformational experiences, so it is important to have a tour guide that truly cares about his clients and their experience. In all of me travels, Dionel has been the best tour guide!!!

Memorable and Informative - Kennedy and our driver picked us up at 8 AM at our hotel. They gave us each a company Peruvian satchel with water. Driving time between each stop is about an hour long. Kennedy spoke good English, was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I would take this tour again and specifically request Kennedy! We had a buffet style lunch, which was better than I expected. Overall, we all had a great time.

Great Tour! - I have never used tour services abroad before so I was a bit hesitant at first. However, this was a great decision. We had a private tour with our guide Franco. He is very very nice and knowledgeable. He was kind enough to stop with us for breaks while we were hiking. The ride was also very smooth. This was definitely money well spend! Would highly recommend using this company and you would be lucky if Franco is your guide!

Superb introduction to the Sacred Valley and the history of the Incas - After researching trekking companies extensively, I selected Inkayni Peru Tours. As a former educator, I was impressed with their mission and vision. They are committed to giving back to the families and communities where their porters reside. From my first inquiry, the staff (Alex, Edwin, Lisbeth), made me feel that we would have a special experience. And indeed we did! Paul, our guide and our driver, Flavio (sp?), picked us up at 5:15 am. at our Airbnb, and off we went. Paul was very knowledgeable about each of the sites we visited, and he tailored his focus to our areas of interest. His respect for the Incan culture and wisdom, was evident. I had trouble climbing to the top of Ollantaytambo because of the thin air. Paul was so patient and encouraging all along the way. During the drive between sites, he also pointed out other landmarks and told us about present day life in the Sacred Valley. For example; we learned about the blessing of new cars, and watched a local cook barbequing Cuys. We felt right at home with Paul. He was so friendly and relaxed and made us feel that nothing was more important then sharing these beautiful ruins and history with us. On the drive back to Cusco, Paul had Flavio pull over so that he could show us some of the constellations in the night sky. An added bonus was the delicious buffet lunch! I would highly recommend Paul for any tours you are considering. Thanks again!!
