Weaving to stonework

Published on Mar, 2025

Pros: Each stop is a feast for both engineer/scientists and those who treasure beauty and organic forms. Delicious lunch at a hacienda (visit the chapel). Cons: Lots of driving. Crowds at some stops (even in the rainy season). Props to our guide Maiki: He kept us ahead of the bus convoys and enthusiastically shared the stories of the sites (in excellent English).

Highly recommend

We had an amazing time during our tour and our tour guide, Karina and our driver were exceptional. What made our the whole experience is learning about each sites and also historical facts about Cusco and the Incas. Karina was extremely knowledgeable and had made the whole experience beyond our expectations. Very enjoyable tour for families of different ages. Accommodations and modifications were able to be made to adjust to everyone's needs. Karina also ensured that for the people that were unable to fully participate in the activities that they were not left out in learning about the historical facts.

Perfect tour and guide

Published on Jan, 2025

I had such a great experience with Vidal and our driver(sorry I forgot his name). The way this tour was set up, we beat all the crowds. Literally as we was we’re leaving, you could see people coming by the boatload. I was really pleased with this because you could have time to take great pictures and take in the scenery. Vidal was so great at explaining things and made the tour so much more enjoyable. He really knows his stuff and really focused on the customers getting to know the area and the history of the sights. The place that we had lunch was really good, complimentary of the tour company. Thanks again for a memorable moment. And side note for people who are concerned on comfort. The vehicle was extremely comfortable and although the ride was long, it didn’t feel that way because of the sights on your way have you looking out of both windows and talking to Vidal was really nice. Perfect guide!!! Definitely recommend this company :)

Sacred Valley Tour day!

Published on Jan, 2025

Maik was such an amazing tour guide. He taught us so much and was so kind and patient letting everyone get the full experience in each place! We loved all the extra stops in between like the chicharia:) We will be recommending him and this tour to our friends coming to visit later in the year. What an amazing day we had!

Fun and Relaxed Tour

Published on Jan, 2025

Our guide, Maik, went above and beyond! He made a stop at a pharmacy for a tour member who had altitude sickness. He made extra stops at local chicherias (local breweries). He was very knowledgeable of all the sites and we didn't feel rushed. Very relaxed and fun tour!
