We Saw So Many Places - This 12 hour tour took us to so many gorgeous places throughout the Sacred Valley. A delicious lunch was included. Reny, our guide, was very informative. He shared so many facts about the locations as well as cultural history and current norms. He was very respectful of his country and shared that appreciation. I loved it that we got out of the van at each of the sites and hiked up into each location.

The tour was a wonderful experience, from the kindness and warmth of the agency’s guys to Marcelo our Lead Guide who knows the history and conveys that passion for the ruins and sacred sites of Peru. We would definitely book again on my next visit. See you soon Peru!

100% recommended 💯💯💯 - I did a tour with Yapa Explorers to the Sacred Valley in September and it was an unforgettable experience. From the start, the service was excellent. The tour was very well organized, allowing us to enjoy each place without rush, but with enough time to explore and learn. The Guide, Marcelo, was exceptional. His knowledge of the history and culture of the Sacred Valley, combined with his passion for sharing it, made every site we visited come alive. Marcelo not only showed us the places, but made us feel part of the story, with detailed explanations and full of enthusiasm. Every stop was a gem: Ollantaytambo, Chinchero, Pisaq, all presented in a pleasant and enriching way. Thanks to Yapa Explorers and Marcelo, I take with me indelible memories and a deep appreciation for this wonderful region. I recommend this experience without hesitation!

Renaldi is the BEST - I did the Sacred Valley Tour with Renaldi, he was by far the best tour guide of my Peru trip! He was knowledgeable, so so knowledgeable! He knew his history, and no matter what you asked him about Peru in general he knew. He shared so many stories and I learned so much more than I could have ever expected. I did not realize we would be climbing to the top and I am trying to overcome my fear of heights. We had not even began to climb but he saw my face and saw my fear. He was patient, he was kind, he helped me when I needed it and gave me encouragement when I needed it as well, he was so kind, you could absolutely tell he loved what he does. The group that I was with was also super cool and the stop we made for lunch was ridiculously good!!! If you are ever fortunate enough to do a tour and have him as your guide you will see his 20 year experience naturally shine through!!!

Sacred Valley Tour with our guide German - Our guide, German was having great insights about Inca / Peru. We really enjoyed our tour. German had planned it well but we felt like we should have given some time to take pictures. I think we could have cut some time for lunch, just like other things, he could have told that we have 1 hour lunch that way people would have there mind set.
