Great to see - Getting to see Puma Punku and riding in the cable cars were great. It is hot and sunny so remember sunscreen.

Good sites but over priced - The guide and the sites were great but their description of the tour was vague and the tour is over priced for what you get. We thought that there will be some public transporation, such as buses to the lake and archiological sites, but the rest, like getting to the Bus Terminal will be either in private car or atleast cabs, but they used several mini vans and lot of walking. This tour is over priced and they could have used cabs from hotel to Bus Terminal, but the whole trip was using local vans and lot of walking to catch the bus. This made it very hecktic and tiring.
