Review of Cusco’s 3.5-hour city tour, from San Pedro Market and Qorikancha to the Cathedral, with practical tips on price and pacing.

“Most of this tour was spent bumping around in Cusco traffic. We went to another hotel on the other side of town presumably to pick up other passengers - they were presumably no shows but there was no explanation. After a brief tour of the markets we navigated back to the same hotel to pick up a couple who by now were presumably an hour late in a 3 hour tour - again no explanations or apologies or introductions. More traffic - a few stops and ended up back within 50 meters of our hotel to start the walking component. At no stage did the guide outline the itinerary or…”

Explore Cusco, Sacsayhuaman, Qenqo, Puca Pucara, Tambomachay, Qorikancha, and the Cathedral on a compact bilingual tour.

“We have been on several Viator tours in different parts of the world and have been impressed by the quality and expertise of their guides. The tour with Niko was a revelation, rich with history, humour and a clear passion for the Inca culture. It was no surprise to find out that he was previously a professor of history. He so fired up our interest and imagination that it was almost as if we were living the history of the Inca civilisation and the centuries that preceded and followed it. It was a profoundly rewarding afternoon and we left feeling immensely grateful to have had the privilege of his wisdom…”

“The tourist tickets required in Cusco are a bit confusing. I purchased the 10 day ticket expecting that it would cover everything but it didn't and I still had to buy entry into some of the sites visited. The tour did not start on time as the guide was half an hour late and we waited for some other people. The tour apart from that was excellent and tiring and the guide was excellent.”

“Franklin was an amazing, knowledgable, patient, emotionally intelligent tour guide. Perfect combination of information and stepping back to allow tourists to absorb and appreciate the views, sites and information. Would HIGHLY RECOMMEND that anyone request him BY NAME. We had him for our Cusco City Tour, Sacred Valley and the Machu Picchu mountain hike after viewing Machu Picchu and we wouldn’t have made it without his guidance, support and encouragement. Thank you for EVERYTHING! You went above and beyond far exceeding our expectations!”

Ride Peruvian horses through Sacsayhuaman’s hills, Inca caves, forests, and city views with transport, helmets, guide, and snacks included.

“Riding a horse has been a dream of mine for a long time. And I'm so glad I got the chance to fulfill it in this way. The experience is very relaxing, almost meditative. The guides were very informative and helpful all the way. And the scenery along the course is just mindblowingly marvelous! Also it's newbie friendly - even if you are inexperienced, everything will be explained to you in detail, and your horse will keep following the rest of the group. So you don't really have to be a pro rider.”

“Jessica, our driver and guide was great. Overall a great experience with her. She made up for the shortfall which was a situation out of her control. The vehicle was not a comfortable fit for 4 adults. Jessica called GYG and the person advised that they thought the tour was for 2 people even though we paid for 4 adults and the confirmation from GYG was for 4 adults. We highly recommend Jessica. Knowledgeable and a lovely, kind person. Thank you Jessica!”
