Machu Picchu Hele Dag vanuit Cusco

Julio is a very knowledgable person and i really enjoyed my visit to the Mach Picchu with him

A convenient way to see Machu Pichu from Cusco for travellers on a tight schedule. Organisation on the day was very good with a car ride from Cusco to Ollantaytambo then onto Peru rail to Agua Callientes with a final 30 minute bus ride up to gates of Machu Picchu. Without the guide meeting us from the train in Agua Callientes to get to the sure bus we would have missed our allocated entrance slot to Machu Picchu. We had an entrance slot between 8-9. This also meant a very early start from Cusco with pick up at 4.00am. The downside of doing thus trip from Cusco was that while it was advertised as duration of 11-13 hours we were in fact 19 hours. A very long day with too much free time in Agua Callientes. I can only assume return tickets on Peru rail were not booked early hence limited availability for earlier return journeys to Ollytaytambo. The two other participants on this trip booked two days beforehand.

Great experience all the way around. From beginning to end everything went like clock work! Top notch service and professionalism.

Very good guide and small croud

The tour was amazing and well-planned. The experience has actually outweighed my expectation, everything was smooth. I highly recommend this team, they are helpful and professional. They have made our experience memorable and highly fulfilling.

This was the best tour. Julio was great from start to finish. He knew a lot about Machu Picchu, but explained everything in a relaxed and interesting way, not like a rehearsed lecture. He was patient, easy to talk to, and made sure we stopped at the best spots for pictures. He also took some really good photos of us. We had an amazing day and would definitely recommend him.

We had a stress-free and amazing experience with this day trip. The operator came to our hotel to explain how the day would work, booked everything in advance and gave us all the information we needed to make the day go seamlessly. The driver who picked us up was prompt, drove safely and we even ended up early for our train, which had wonderful views as well. Our guide Luis at Machu Picchu was so knowledgeable and explained everything we wanted to know, and was a great photographer too! We booked two circuits to maximise our time at Machu Picchu and they arranged it so that we could go one after the other and then take our train back without delay but just enough time to pick up lunch. It was straightforward and let us have lots of fun throughout the long day.

This full-day Machu Picchu tour from Cusco was truly the experience of a lifetime. I booked it last minute in June during peak season after finding out tickets on the official website were sold out for months, and somehow everything worked out perfectly. It ended up being one of the best days of my life. It was definitely a long day, but every single minute was worth it. Everything was so well organized from start to finish. The transportation, transfers, timing, and communication were seamless, so I never had to worry about anything. Our guide, Julio, was absolutely amazing. He was incredibly knowledgeable, funny, and made exploring Machu Picchu even more memorable. He answered every question I had, shared so many interesting stories about the site, and even took a ton of photos for me that turned out Instagram-worthy! If you're thinking about visiting Machu Picchu, I can't recommend this tour enough. It was such a magical experience, and I'd happily do it all over again—especially with my friends next time.

Smooth communications between the tour guides. They picked me up with a taxi at my hotel and drove to Ollantaytambo. The driver made sure I waited on the correct area for my train before he left. Once the train arrived at Aguas Calientes, someone with a sign was waiting for me. Had some time to grab a quick lunch and then i met with the guide and she brought me to the bus bound to machu pichu. When I got to machu pichu, my tour guide Julio was waiting for me at the entrance. We walk through the curcuit B and he took a lot of photos for me. He also gave me a run down of the history (very informative). Julio was considerate and responded to my questions.

Minkas Travel provided a wonderful experience. They picked us up and dropped us off at the airport. The travel to Machu Picchu was enjoyable with the beautiful views and unique train experience. When we arrived in Machu Picchu city, the tour guide met us and took us to a delicious restaurant that he had already reserved. We had plenty of time inside a Machu Picchu to soak it in, learn from the tour guide, and take lots of pictures. I would highly recommend traveling with them!
