A delightful excursion - This was a total upside surprise! While we expected some stops on our way to Cusco, the quality of the tour was way above what we expected from the Expedia website. Our guide had a solid command of English and was absolutely faithful in giving equally complete English explanations even though the majority of guests were Spanish speaking. The small museum at the beginning of the tour included a number a high- quality exhibits, and our guide’s discussion brought a lot of perspective to what we were seeing. We stopped at what might be considered as a cloister for the “chosen” Inca girls who were taken from their villages to serve the interests of the Inca; it was a different perspective than we gained from other parts of our visit to Peru. Again, the guide thoroughly enriched the visit. Lunch was great. Later, we visited a small church which had wall-to-wall murals that showed how the church tried to reach out to the indigenous population; it was quite different from other churches that we saw in Peru. Again, the guide made the difference. And he kept everything on time!

Long but comfortable and enjoyable journey - Very comfortable seats and headrests, reclining also have USB ports to use to charge your devices. Unfortunately no hot/cold drinks available to purchase on board as advertised; but this didn’t cause any issue as we stopped off every 1.5-2hours on the journey. Guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, you are able to purchase a map of Puno and Lake Titicaca on board the bus (10 soles) and this has some interesting information about the history and the route which the bus is taking. Lunch was buffet style, very tasty & at a gorgeous restaurant with live music performers and a garden with a waterfall. This is a very long journey (approx 11 hours) but is a really good way to travel from Cusco to Puno as the stops allow you to visit more places as well as break up the journey a bit. Wifi on board worked but was very limited due to the areas that we were travelling through - do not rely on this Wifi for you trip, make sure to download something to watch.

perfect trip - Excellent service, the bus is comfortable with very large windows that allow you to appreciate the landscapes. The guide on board is very fun showing you each place on the route. The buffet lunch was excellent, the stops were interesting, Andahuaylillas was the place that impressed me the most. Recommended

Cusco to Puno by bus with stops for museums and attractions - A one day bus ride through the Andes, starting from Cusco and ending on the banks of lake Titicaca. The bus tour was superb with an excellent guide and made 5 stops along the way which helped us better understand Incan history through museums and even pre-Incan civilization in Peru. The sights of the Andes were magnificent and we even stopped ~4200 m above sea level for a quick peek to take in the snow capped peaks, plateaus and llama farms! Great guide, comfortable bus service and very punctual with timing. Staff was very hospitable and easily reachable by whatsapp. Maintained good social distancing protocols/mask protocols during travel. Would recommend this trip if considering visiting lake Titicaca from Cusco over flying/rail.

Very nice tour and comfortable bus ride as well. - The tour was nice and we went to 5 places on the way. However, it would have been better if we has just 1 language speaking guide in order to grasp better. Also some time was lost for local shopping stops. The church, the temple, the view point, lunch and museum were v.nice. It would have been great too if they had stopped at the Puma view point which was on the way to Puno too. But overall all was great and the buses were very comfortable.

Best transportation from Cusco to Puno - Well planned with total of 5 stops. Adequate time for each stop. I didn't get tired at all! I traveled on Sept 22, 2022. The wifi is weak, I was able to connect once for couple minutes, quite disappointing for a 10 hour ride. Hence 4*
