Great half day tour to Maras, Moray and Chinchero - Very well organized from pick-up to drop-off. Everything on time. Nora, our guide, was lovely. She spoke in English and Spanish. Lots of explanations which I like. The driver was good/careful/safe.
The itinerary was just right. I found the Chinchero demonstration to be educational. I wish they sold the 'natural lipstick' which they showed as I could only fit small mementos in my carrry-on.
This is a good tour to take day after arriving in Cusco to help acclimatise outside of one's hotel.
This is my 2nd Tour with Tarvos Peru Tour. I find them reliable. Gorki is easy to deal with and responds very fast.
Thank you!
