Our bus driver was amazing managing thoes mountain roads and Arequipa traffic! It's a long day tour from Arequipa and the drive back was a challenge but I would recommend the tour and would do it all again. 5 stars 🌟”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 174 reviews · 13 hours (approx.) · from $47

Review of a 13-hour Sacred Valley tour from Cusco with Pisac, Ollantaytambo, Moray, Maras salt mines, buffet lunch, and hotel pickup.

“Our guide was very informative, this is a very much a speed run tour, made me wish to come back and stay in some of these towns for longer. If you want to dip your feet into Peru history, this is an amazing way to start off your trip, and hopefully help you snowball to more ideas. I would start my trip off with this, so I can see the main points of the area, and come back around for longer stays in towns around Cusco”

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 146 reviews · 15 hours · from $27Best value

Review of Arequipa’s 15-hour Colca Canyon tour, with condors, Andean villages, hot springs, meals, costs, and practical tips.

“This daytrip with David to the Colca-canyon was amazing. David told is lots of interesting facts of the places, it was worth to ask him questions since he used to live in the mountains. The only thing we didn’t like is that on the way back we needed to be hurry because of one person who has to reach her airplane. We didn’t find it fair since no one asked the group about it and the whole group had to adapt to one single person. All together I really recommend this trip to everyone who only has 1 day for the Colca Canyon.”

Review of a full-day Machu Picchu tour from Cusco, covering train travel, guided ruins, costs, timing, transport, and key booking concerns.

“Machu Picchu is undoubtably worth a visit - for the nature, the history or even the personal photos. The tour planned out all the stages of getting from Cusco to Machu Picchu and back. The guide was responsive via text message in advance to confirm all the details. Our guide at Machu Picchu was great - giving a lot of history and information. The train travel was in the executive car and comes with delicious snacks and drinks while you overlook the gorgeous scenery. The only thing I wish that this tour had was a guide with you from start to finish, as it was a bit confusing how we…”

“Escursione? Sostanzialmente è stato un servizio di transfer. Nessuna spiegazione dalla guida che non ci ha seguiti durante il tragitto. Inoltre, si è persa un turista causando un ora di ritardo a tutto il gruppo. Infine, non è stato dato il tempo per visitare la red valley.”

Review of a private Machu Picchu day tour from Cusco, with train travel, a private guide, lunch, costs, timing, and practical tips.

“Knowledgeable guide. Spectacular views best I've seen in my life. The guide new exactly what vantage points to take us to. The pick up person provided an envelope with all our tickets and explained everything very well. The train ride was terrible. There was a strong odor of gas all the passengers in our car were feeling ill our eyes were burning that we could barely open them. On the way back the train was almost 3 hours late. All the locals were shocked this happened so I would highly recommend this trip as we believe the train break down was an anomaly. This was a trip of a lifetime.”
