3 days with Andes Peru Tour & Adventure
We could not have asked for a better tour guide! What started as a trip for 2, became a trip for 6 and Jose was patient and informative every step of the way. We kept in communication since October and he helped me build the perfect itinerary. Being this my second trip to Cusco and Machu Picchu, it was very important to me to be in contact with the person providing my tour rather than a tour company that would connect me to a tour guide later on. There are so many visitors trying to see the same sights and after doing a non private tour last time and being moved from sight to sight with so many people, I knew a private tour would be what I wanted. We are so glad we chose Jose!
We did a 3 day tour- Cusco City tour, Sacred Valley, and Machu Picchu/Huayna Picchu. Having a private tour meant we could be flexible with the timing and it made a world of difference. We were able to see sights before they got too crowded, as well as request more time at some that we wanted to spend more time in. Jose (and our driver Roberto) even drove us to the pharmacy and to exchange money because we hadn't had time to do it on our own.
We opted to climb Huayna Picchu and while it was difficult and scary at times, we were happy to have Jose. It was amazing reaching the top. We saw tour guides that waited for the group at the bottom of the mountain but I’m so grateful he came up with us. My husband had a panic attack halfway up (he’s afraid of heights and I may have forced him to do it) and Jose stayed with him until he calmed down and helped him find a spot where he would be comfortable waiting for our group. As we got higher up, I was thankful to have him update us on what was to come and get our mind ready.
As we ended our trip and talked about all the amazing sights we saw, we kept coming back to the fact that it would have not been as amazing if it wasn't for Jose. We didn't have to worry, stress, or feel that we missed out on anything because of him. I highly recommend Jose and Andes Peru Tour & Adventure!

Nice trip to Machu Picchu
After doing a lot of research we settled with this option since it included both Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley. This was cost effective and time saving. I really admired Jose our guide for his energetic nature and willingness to share knowledge on Incas and history.

The best!
Jose guided me though the tour to Machu Picchu through the Sacred Valley of Incas. Jose is abolutely awesome. He was a great source of information all they way. Well informed and well mannered. He was kind and did all efforts to make this a positive experience. He always mentioned that ¨I want to make this tour a positive impact on you that you will always remember having a guide like me¨. I admire his enthusiasm.

Extremely pleased
We came across Andes Peru tours and adventure and were convinced after reading through the reviews of other travellers. Jose met us on arrival and was extremely kind. He drove us to our hotel in Cusco and offered us some coca tea to acclimatise. We felt extremely secured being with him. His knowledge and enthusiasm was impressive. The trip to Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu was a great option as we got to see both prime attractions at one go. It was a great way to see Machu Picchu as during the Sacred Valley tour Jose highlighted the Incan culture and how the country has recovered from colonisation. We recommend them !

All in one!
We were looking for a trip to Machu Picchu and Jose,the owner introduced us to this excellent programme.This covered both Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley under one trip in two days. Bingo! We went for this option. Jose himself guided us all the way to Sacred Valley and onwards to Machu Picchu. This was undoubtedly the best experience we had. We stopped at a local restaurant in Ollantaytambo before boarding the train to Aguas Calientes. The lunch here was included in the package and it was an authentic Peruvian food. Jose´s dedication and kindness is commendable. We highly recommend Andes Peru.

We are very excited for your beautiful words and gives us more strength to continue providing quality service.

5 Star Experience
Not just the tour,every moment was joyful. The pick up from my hotel was ontime. We drove through the Sacred Valley and Jose Tito, our guide brought in a great energy. He was extremely helpful and went beyond his way to help and share information. The accomodation in Aguas Calientes was spectacular. Jose was always around checking if everything was organised well. On the second day of the trip we woke up a bit late and Jose was at the lobby of the hotel patiently waiting for us. Such is a guide that every traveller would want on their trip.

Well organised!
I booked this tour online through their website. Jose from their company assisted me with the booking he was attentive and took every thing into consideration. Upon my arrival to Cusco he picked me up from the airport and gave some tips on climatising. The tour to Machu Picchu was joyful and informative.
