I had an amazing trip to the bridge and cave with our wonderful guide Juan Carlos and our driver Milton. We had a great time at the bridge and cave. Juan Carlos is extremely friendly and very helpful. The bridge was the first stop and we were told all the stories that comes with the last Inca bridge. It is right over top of some amazing views. He included us in his traditional ceremony before our decent into the cave. The walk to the cave was about 10 minutes and we were provided with all gear. He made sure that we were comfortable with going through the cave and prioritized safety at all times. I would truly recommend the company and Juan Carlos as a guide. Also he takes really great pictures which is a plus. Milton made sure we were safe in the vehicle and helped us with our bags and safely navigated the crazy roads. Both guys really put in a lot of effort to make our experience great. I have already spread the word to fellow travelers and some locals who now are interested as they never heard of this tour. And I hope more people go on this tour as it is one in a lifetime experience.

Cusco best cave tour!
This was an amazing tour!! The tour guide was great, knowledgeable and very fun!!! Take an extra pair of socks and a small water sealed backpack as you will get wet.

Awesome experience!
We have had many adventures across the world and were so impressed with CrossoverPeru! The staff of three was amazing. Kevin was knowledgeable, prompt, courteous and sweet. On our way to the bridge, he handed our bags of food to the villagers high up who have no access to the town. Adorable! The Inca bridge was impressive and the caving was awesome! We loved this cave that few have seen and even fewer have explored. We were in there for hours and went as far as we could before the water prohibited us. It was a blast!

Brilliant day with great guide!
Beautiful day with Juan Carlos, great guide! Interesting and beautiful old style bridge, wonderful cave with underground river. Perfectly accurate in time, caring stuff - also the guide and the driver. All the adventure is well organized - they give you the equipment for the cave, and organize the place and time to eat. Highly recommended for the cave lovers.
