Best experience in Cusco - Primoroso attention!! Machu Picchu tours gave us all the necessary support, we did not worry about anything, hotel, transfers, tickets, etc. John and Elaine gave us precious tips from the first contact, during our stay in Cusco and until the final moment. Tips like where to buy the best coffee, where is the best ceviche, among others. Luis is a very attentive guide, gives a lot of information and likes when you ask things, because of the chance to pass more information yet. I highly recommend!

Thanks Machupicchu tours!! - I've decided to do this tour by myself after doing a little bit of the inca trail, hoping i can enjoy more a little bit of the local people, the costums and the folklore of Perú, and thats what i've found, Machupicchu tours was really such an amazing choice, the knowledge of the tour guide, the service, the food, all was incredible and, no much common on Perú, everything just on time. Thanks to everyone.

Excellent experiencw! - We had 2 days MP trip. Despite railway accident on the route between Ollantaytambo and Aguas Calientes John unfortunately were not alloved to board on the train (overcrowded, tourists were let first on the train after trafic resumes). There are no other posibilities to get to Aguas Calientes. It was a bit scarry moment as we were alone in the stuck train, however John was keeping to provide instructions via Whatsup and managed to arrange the alternative pick up service from the train station and alternative, very knowledgeable guide Rafael for next morning at 6.30 am. That despite Rafael just finished 4 day Inca trail! All this demonstrated highest responsibility, John's team spirit and hands-on approach so that we felt very comfortable of whats going on. As a result, we had not only very interesting excursion trough MP, but also an excellent climb on the Wayna Picchu. Higly recommended!.

Great trip - We had a great two day tour with our amazing tour guide Lenin. Everything is tailored to our needs, and we enjoyed learning Lenin’s thoughts on history, culture, and politics of Inca/Peru. Highly recommended!

A phenomenal journey... - I wanted to go twice towards Machu Picchu by 2-day walk and by train really both options are incredibly wonderful. I am very grateful for the impeccable organization of my tickets, transportation and guides.
Thanks to John who made possible this wonderful tour of one of the wonders of the World. I recommend the services of Machu Picchu Tours agency as they are very organized and very attentive with all the details.

Our unforgettable trip to Cuzco, Machu PIcchu, Rainbow mountain and the Sacred valley - First of all, photos cannot do justice to how amazing this place and the country of Peru is, and how connected to Earth the people are.
We did both the visit to Machu Picchu and the climb of Huayna Picchu. The views from up top were amazing. Our guide Luis and our driver Gonzalo were amazing with their punctuality, friendliness, accommodating nature, good humor, knowledge of the local culture, and rich history. Both of them were very fluent in English which helped tremendously in learning about the rich heritage of the Incas and even the pre-Incas, architectural differences between the different eras, without losing anything in translation with our rudimentary Spanish. Although, I could only choose one of the tours from the dropdown, but we also did the sacred valley tour and the rainbow mountain tour with them. Within just that one week of spending time with them almost every day and how nice they were through and through, we felt like we were parting from family members by the end of that week. I truly hope we would be able to go back to Peru either to repeat same tours or even others. Peru is so full of historic and archeologically significant places, one trip is not enough to experience Peru in its entirety. When we do go back, we would like nothing more than having Luis and Gonzalo help us learn more about Peru. I wish the rating could allow more than 5 stars :) I will give them a 100.
