Perfect guide to dive in Inca’s culture - Our tour with Patricia was an amazing 360 degrees dive in the culture of Incas. She is so knowledgeable but was telling us not just historical facts but also some fun information! We enjoyed our 4 hours and they actually seemed like it was a full day because we have done so many things! If you want your time in Cusco to be meaningful , it is the best investment!

Wonderful guides. A must do for Cusco! - My wife and I highly recommend this tour, it is a great way to take in all the major archeological things to see around Cusco, there are many. Our guide was a wonderful lady from the area who was quite knowledgeable and pleasant. Sacsayhuaman was the highlight and we spent 2 hours wandering through the massive megalithic stones. Truly an amazing place.

No queues, private guide with no crowds. - Ruben was a fabulous guide, very knowledgeable, funny and made our family (with two sons 20 & 22yo) 4 hour trip very enjoyable. We loved having his driver on call and not waiting in queues. Would definitely recommend.

We had a great tour... - We had a great tour around the sites. There was a good variety of Inca sites, am amazing Cathedral in town and a wonderful tour around a Llama and Alpaca farm. Reuben our guide was very friendly, spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable. Finally we were still suffering the effects of altitude sickness at the time and were tempted to cancel this trip. We are so pleased we didn't as the tour is a nice mix of bus and walk, with the walks, never too far.
