Everything very nice, I went with my family, the service was very comfortable, comfortable clean car, safe driving. Service with Mr. Pedro recommended
I contacted Pedro months before. I asked him for a private tour for nine people from Puno to Cusco, passing through the Palcoyo rainbow mountain and visiting Andahuaylillas. Everything went perfectly, on time, price, and schedule with a great driver (Juan Carlos) and mountain guide. We also did the Sacred Valley (Chinchero, Maras, Moray, Ollantaytambo) with them, as well as the Pisac tour and five archaeological sites in Cusco (Qorikancha...), and everything was punctual and at a fair price. Likewise, he provided us with transportation from Ollantaytambo to Cusco after visiting Machu Picchu and the final transfer to the Cusco airport. Good service, Pedro's kindness, and they fulfilled what was agreed upon. I will only say that the 10-passenger van is not comfortable for nine people, and it is better to hire the 14-passenger van for a better experience. Recommended agency, kindness, immediate response to questions, and good service. Thank you, Pedro.
We spent 3 days with Don Pedro between Puno and Cusco, and I highly recommend both the trip and the guide. He knew where to go, was never reluctant to bring us in more remote areas, genuinely in love with his region/country, and also very kind. Gracias Pedro

An excellent experience from the start. The tour through Qoricancha, Sacsayhuaman, Qenqo and Tambomachay was incredible, each place has its magic and a lot of history. Pedro was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable, always willing to answer our questions and give us time to explore and take photos. The organization was punctual and well coordinated. I highly recommend this tour if you want to see the best of Cusco in a short amount of time!
