Excellent Private tour with Alfredo - Booked a last minute afternoon tour for 2 to Maras and Moray with Alfredo. Had a great time and would totally recommend a tour with Alfredo. He is very knowledgeable about Incan history and traditions. He is a pretty good driver too. We had a comfortable ride in his SUV on a rainy afternoon.

The best ATV trip . - Under the supervision of Alfredo our group of 8 explored 2 historical sites & the area around them. We ranged in ages: 25-67. We all loved it. We were supplied with helmets & light jackets. Alfredo organized the guided, supervised tours. For most of us it was our first ATV experience. We enjoyed the supervised ride & assistance when needed. As well as the knowledge Alfredo demonstrated along the trip. This was our second trip with him as a guide. Knowledgeable, fairly priced & responsible. Highly recommended.
