"Unforgettable Machu Picchu Journey with an Exceptional Guide!" - John was the perfect guide for our journey from Cusco to Machu Picchu! From the start, he made everything smooth and enjoyable, picking us up from our hotel and ensuring we were comfortable and ready for the adventure ahead. Thanks to his planning, we arrived at Machu Picchu early, avoiding the crowds and enjoying the stunning morning views. The weather was fantastic, and John's deep knowledge of the history and culture made every moment even more memorable. His explanations brought the ancient Incan sites to life, and he guided us thoughtfully through the walk at Machu Picchu, pointing out details we would have missed on our own. Throughout the entire day, John was attentive, patient, and incredibly helpful. He truly went above and beyond to make our experience unforgettable. Highly recommend!

The trip you have dreamed about done the right way! - A lifetime experience that did not disappoint. We did a private tour with Bernabe. We were picked up at the airport, and taken to the sacred valley. The ruins, the scenery, the history, the shopping, the food was all amazing. Day two, we went to Machu Picchu. I was so glad we used this tour group; we are very satisfied from everything.

Wonderful Experience - We chose this company as they were highly recommended in one of the FB groups for people travelling to Peru. As soon as I reached out to John, he promptly responded to my request and provided all the information for the two-day tour to Machu Pichu from Cusco. John was helpful and very professional from the beginning and answered all my questions, provided the itenary and all the details of the trip. Our guide, Edwin, was friendly and knowledgeable. We nearly spent four hours in Machu Pichu since it was raining and had a lot of cloud cover. He was patient and recommended that we wait until the rain stops and clouds clear so that we could have the best views of the area. Booking the tour with this company and having Ediwn as our tour guide has relieved us from all the stress about figuring out the timings for entering the long lines to get on the bus to MachuPichu and the entrance at Machu Pichu as well. He was answering all our questions and definitely put our mind at ease. We would strongly recommend Machu Picchu Tours if you are planning to visit Peru.

Excellent service - We chose this company as they were one of the few that actually responded to our request for information. From the beginning John was professional, helpful and efficient, ensuring we were always aware of the stage of booking, itinerary and payments. He was always available for questions or concerns either by message or phone call. Our itinerary was well put together and lodging were very comfortable. Our guide, Edwin, was prompt and friendly. He was very knowledge and was very willing to share information and answer our questions. Having Edwin to accompany us through long lines of other visitors erased the stress and worry. He always managed to take photos of us that made it look as if we were the only people at the site. Mr Edgar, our driver, was very safe and we felt comfortable with him in charge of our car. We would not hesitate to recommend Machu Picchu Tours.

Well arranged trip - I arranged a 7 days vacation with John of Machu Pichu tours. It included hotels, airport transfers, excursions and some meals. Overall, had a good time. I was traveling alone with my 10 years old son. My tour guide Edwin and driver Edgar were punctually and very respectful. They took good care of my son in Cusco when he developed severe altitude sickness. I chose 3 star hotel options but they were very basic. John was very responsive and available all the time for any questions and concerns I had. I would definitely recommend his company for any family friendly travels.
