The guide Eduardo and the guide Silvana were very attentive and taught us a lot. Thank you very much for everything. We will recommend Waka to our friends from Brazil to come to Peru.
We are very happy with Efrain. He is very knowledgeable and experienced.We went with him to the Sacred Valley. We recommend him as the best tour guide in Cusco.
Efrain was an amazing tour guide !!!!!! We were travelling as a family and did 3 separate tours with him (Cusco city tour, Sacred Valley tour and Pisac tour). He answered all our questions and was very knowledgeable.
It was a nice day with Efrain. Everything was as discussed and very punctual. In addition, Efrain was very friendly and helpful .
The Sacred Valley of the Incas was amazing! Great viewpoints (mirador) along the route which took us from Cusco to Pisaq, then Ollantaytambo via Urubamba. The ruins at both these sites were breathtaking and Efrain our guide (Wakas Adventure) walked us through both sites, telling us about the significance of the different structures. Good hour or so long hike with amazing views and architectural details. Despite heavy rainfall we also stopped at the textile center at Chinchero which was a nice experience, fascinating to see how the locals make bright color dyes from plants, vegetables and other organic. Efrain is a very knowledgeable, communicative and punctual guide and was very flexible with our schedule. Made for an unforgettable experience and great start for our subsequent Inca Trail hike!
Efrain the guide of Waka’s Adventure was very friendly and explained us a lot. We went with him to the Sacred Valley and to Machu Picchu. The trips were very nice! I recommend this agency!
