Amazing tour, the whole experience was nicely planned, with enough time at each location. Great food that was included and an awesome tour guide Marcelo, highly recommend!
This tour is highly recommended, we covered the key sites and had enough time to explore and take photos. Our guide Marcello was super insightful and made us feel welcome. Everything was well communicated from the day prior via whatsapp and clear instructions with the itinerary of the day. Highly recommend!
A very relaxing trip, not exhausting, with an excellent guide, Reny, who gives it his all to ensure you have a great time; he knows a lot and is very attentive.
The day was perfect. We had the time to visit each site (Pisac, Ollantaytambo, Chinchero) without pressure, as well as a weaving workshop (Manos de la comunidad) with a presentation of the four types of camelids (llamas, alpacas, vicuñas, guanacos). The included dinner in Ollantaytambo was excellent. Angel, our guide, provided excellent explanations of historical facts and took care of everyone. The vehicle was very comfortable compared to others we took for different activities. I highly recommend this expedition with Angel.
5 star, learned a lot about the incas
Great excursion we all enjoyed it very much. We saw three historical sites and also along the way stopped at artisean shops one was a silversmith and also a weaving studio. Luncj was included and was great. Very worth the price of the excursion.
All wonderful, amazing day, very worth the experience, especially to see and learn more about the Inca empire.
We did the 1 day sacred valley tour from Cusco ! Our tour guide Reny was amazing he knew so much about the history and culture and we learned so much about the Incas ! We also got delicious food included! I definitely recommend - Ciara
Excellent tour to get to know more about the Inca culture! And the tour guide (Jose Luis) is a really nice guy, lots of knowledge and very helpful the whole time!
We did the 1 day Sacred Valley tour with a small group, guided by Primo. Primo is all you can wish for in a guide; energetic, kind, speaks great English and he knows so much about the Inca culture, the Valley’s history and more! Highly recommend booking your tour with Primo if you’re looking for a fun and informative tour!
