With his help I was able to get my bracelet replaced.. he went above and beyond to help me and ensured that I was taken care of!!!

Amazing tour with a very knowledgeable guide! - Had an amazing and educational tour with our super guide José/Tito around the (pre)inca ruins of Cusco! Very comfortable and safe ride in the bus with the Peruvian Michael Schumacher behind the wheel! Both our driver and our guide brought an amazing positive energy and i would highly recommend taking this tour!

Excellent pace with quick background knowledge of the Inca culture - The guide, Jose, did an excellent job in providing us with brief history, explaining the culture and answering our questions. We felt very comfortable with the pace, without feeling being rush or herd around. Highly recommend this tour.

Cusco Archeological Marvels - Our guide took us to 4 sites in Cusco. They were all amazing and the information given was excellent. The pace of the tour was good. We were also then taken to an extra site in the city centre and given more info about that. I would highly recommend this tour BEFORE going to the Sacred Valley sites and Machu Picchu.

Very entertaining city tour - Very interesting to visit the historic center of the city, as well as Sacsayhuaman, Puca Pukara and the llama sanctuary. Cusco truly is a very rich city in terms of its architecture and history.
