A great adventure.
It was very organized, from the moment they pick you up at the hotel until you arrive at the lagoon. The guide gives you instructions on how to handle the altitude and you are always accompanied.

Together with my family, we had a truly unforgettable experience. From the very first moment, they were always available to help us and find the perfect balance between an affordable cost and unique experiences.
Every detail was carefully organized: the transfers, punctuality, and even the selection of seats, always thinking about how to maximize our enjoyment of each activity.
The commitment, passion, and care with which they do their work is evident. Thank you for making our vacation much more than just a trip; we take away memories that we will treasure forever.
We recommend them with complete confidence and hope to meet again on our next adventure!

My experience with Cusco Peru
From the first day we had an attention of excellence. Gilmer was answering all our doubts and orienting us with the tours to make, costs, mailings of everything in detail. Once in Cusco, Ruben called us before arriving at the hotel to meet us, hand us the vouchers and explain how we would manage. He was sending us whatsapp every day, asking if everything was okay, if we needed something, always on the lookout. Finally the tours. Perfect, the guides friendly and with extensive knowledge of everything related to the visit made. Anyway. I can recommend the agency for the human and professional quality of its members, and the fulfillment of the tours as they offer them.

Awesome and Professional Company
My brother and I just got home from a week in Peru. We booked most of our tours through this company and we loved each one! We booked the 2D/1N Machu Picchu and wayna picchu, Laguna Humantay, and rainbow mountain! This company reached out to me via what’s app when I was looking for the best tour and answered all my questions. The tours always picked us up at our hostel on time and the guides were very welcoming and nice. They purchased all of our train tickets, bus tickets, and entrance tickets so that my brother and I could enjoy the trip! Highly recommend this company if you’re looking for an affordable and safe way to travel around Peru!
