Amazing Private Tour of Sacred Valley - The tour of Sacred Valley with Cesar was amazing. Cesar was so incredibly knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. We did a full day private tour which started early in Ollantaytambo and then headed up to Chinchero, had lunch at Mountain View, and continued on to the Salt Mines and then Moray circular terraces. Cesar had a real sense of history – both ancient and modern – that truly engaged not only us parents but our teenage boys. Kudos to Cesar for not only knowing everything there about Sacred Valley, Incan history, and Peru but also for knowing how to deliver it so engagingly!

10/10 Highly recommend! - Oscar is the best tour guide we have ever had. Not only was he super knowledgeable, a great guide, and flexible, but he went above and beyond in helping us out and fixing a snafu with a part of our trip that was independent from him. He was strategic about our visits, which helped us visit places at beautiful parts of the day with less travelers. He was also easily able to accommodate the food allergies of someone in our party. Cannot recommend him and his company highly enough.

Sacred Valley Tour Was Incredible - The tours were very detailed and fitted to our physical capabilities. We got to see really interesting sites at our own pace with someone who could answer all of our questions. Our guide was very friendly and informative.

AWESOME TRIP! - This tour was absolutely perfect. Miguel was lovely company and very knowledgeable. He picked us up promptly at our hotel, took us throughout the entire Sacred Valley, knew all the best places for photo ops. The trip was highly educational and fun. We absolutely loved our time there and Miguel made it that much better. Would highly recommend this to anyone for their 1st or 2nd day in Cusco.

Best tour of the Sacred Valley! Book this! - My sister and I took our 82 year old dad on this trip of the Sacred Valley! Oscar our tour guide is absolutely amazing! He was raised in the area and is very astute to the history, culture and traditions of the area! We learned so much that added to our knowledge of the Inca people. He also made it very accommodating for our dad. Highly recommend. The restaurant at the Mountain Experience and lodge was fantastic! Pictures do not do it justice but the memories will last a lifetime!

Excellent Sacred Valley Tour - Miguel is a fantastic host. Our family of 3 had the best day exploring Ollantaytambo, Moray, Moras, and Chinchero. Miguel gave us much information about the sites to further our understanding. In particular, we found his explanation about agricultural experimentation at Moray fascinating. He was also expert at locating venues for terrific photos. It was a full day, but time flew. He wrapped up the day with the most amazing churros from his favorite bakery. We highly recommend this tour!! Thank you Miguel!

Incredible Tour with Raul! - My wife and I had the most special day with our amazing guide, Raul! He was incredibly kind and organized, and had expert knowledge of all aspects of the Sacred Valley. He made Inca history come alive to us, sharing details and stories that we'll remember forever. He gave thoughtful answers to our many questions about each site, and even did an amazing job being our photographer to capture special memories from the day. We've done tours all of the world and Raul is truly one of the best, most knowledgeable guides we've ever had.
