A great way to see Cusco

This was a great tour that covers the ruins and sites around Cusco. Ended up being a more private tour and the guide, Jose was really knowledgeable about the area. This was a great way to see a different side of Cusco I didn’t know existed and some breathtaking views.

City Tour in Cusco Half Day

Great tour. Loved the guide we had for this trip. She explained most of the stuff related to the archeological places we visited and in the end we had an extra stop at a Peruvian textile place which has very nice people and interesting design textile.

Interesting and informative

Great tour to see archaeological sights and buildings of the Inkas in Cusco. The guide was fantastic, super knowledgeable and bilingual. It didn’t feel rushed and there was plenty of time and information given at each location. Definitely recommend.
