Besides the good choice of the script and good time of visit in each place, the tour guide, Léo Alvarez, was sensational. When visiting archaeological sites without a guide you lose a lot. The guide is fundamental to the true understanding of what one is seeing and Leo was very good.
Everything was excellent: Eric, our assigned guide, welcomed us at the Cusco airport and began our experience in the Sacred Valley. He explained each place and its history, took care of our well-being and health, with details at the level of a true friend. We want to mention the outstanding professionalism of Sonia, whom we contacted initially and who designed the entire trip. We took home a beautiful memory!
¡Gracias Ana Laura! Que Eric haya estado presente desde el aeropuerto hasta el último momento, y que Sonia haya podido diseñar todo de antemano para que solo disfruten, es exactamente lo que buscamos en MACHUPICCHU Travelers. Que lo hayan vivido como una amistad y no como un servicio es el mejor cumplido que podemos recibir. ¡Esperamos que se lleven ese recuerdo por mucho tiempo! 🌟
We had a wonderful tour with Carlos! He took us to all the hotspots, had several picture books to go along with his extensive knowledge of the history of his culture & Peru! He was fun, wise & thorough! We’d highly recommend his tour.
Thanks Jody! Carlos has a great way of bringing history to life — the picture books are such a thoughtful touch that most guides skip. Really glad that depth came through for you at MACHUPICCHU Travelers. Hope the rest of your trip was just as good! 📖🌟
I am very grateful, it was a very good experience, my guide Erick always pending any eventuality, helped and advised me in everything I needed, highly recommended because they take care of everything and one only enjoys Cuzco, from my experience 100% recommended, and clearly I will return; thank you very much Erick for your willingness for your help
¡Gracias! Erick hace exactamente eso — acompañar de verdad para que uno solo disfrute Cusco sin preocuparse de nada. Que te hayas sentido así de respaldado es lo que buscamos en MACHUPICCHU Travelers. ¡Esperamos que te lleves los mejores recuerdos! 🌟
Very pleasant walk sharing cultural information about the city. Highly recommended
¡Gracias por la recomendación! Cusco siempre tiene algo nuevo por descubrir y nos alegra haber sido parte de tu visita con MACHUPICCHU Travelers. ¡Esperamos que el resto del viaje haya sido igual de bueno! 🌄
Really great tour with many impressions! I can only recommend you tour with Carlos.
Vielen Dank, Julia! Carlos freut sich sicher über dieses Feedback — schön, dass die Tour so viele bleibende Eindrücke hinterlassen hat. Genau das möchten wir bei MACHUPICCHU Travelers erreichen. Wir hoffen, der Rest deiner Reise war genauso schön! 🌄
Walking tour of Cusco. Very informative tour with loads of information on various parts of the city from cultural to historical to musical aspects. Erick was an excellent guide
Thanks Eric! Cultural, historical and musical all in one tour — Erick really covers it all and it shows. Glad you experienced Cusco that way with MACHUPICCHU Travelers. Hope the rest of your trip was just as good! 🌄
Erick the musical tour guide was awesome! 10/10
Thanks Mitchel! Erick's music is one of those things that catches everyone off guard in the best way — really sets MACHUPICCHU Travelers apart from a regular city tour. Hope the rest of your time in Cusco was just as memorable! 🎶
Great tour, Erick gave us loads of information and was helpful and friendly
Thanks Kevin! Erick has a way of making the history of Cusco feel alive — glad that came through for you. That's the kind of tour we love running at MACHUPICCHU Travelers. Hope the rest of your trip was just as good! 🌟
I was very well taken care of by Erick. He promptly helped put together my tour schedule in Cusco, removed ALL my doubts and was extremely kind and caring. I also highlight the professionalism of the guides: Sofia, Miguel and Rosa. All well-educated, dedicated, and that gave me a great experience on my first visit to Peru! I recommend!!!
Muito obrigado pelo seu comentário! Erick, Sofia, Miguel e Rosa vão adorar ler isso — cada um à sua maneira fez parte de tornar essa primeira visita ao Peru algo especial. É exatamente esse cuidado que buscamos oferecer na MACHUPICCHU Travelers. Esperamos que o Peru tenha ficado no coração! 🇵🇪
