5Highly recommend!
Highly recommend this tour! Our guide Juan Fabrizio made it an unforgettable experience with his passion and incredible knowledge of Peru, especially the Incan culture. He provided the right level of context, answered our questions insightfully and was very supportive and responsive. We’d also forgotten an item on our trip and Juan Fabrizio made every effort going above and beyond to help us retrieve it. He is very kind. Thank you for a lovely experience in Peru!
4In general the tour was organized very well. The tour guide was nice, explained all aspects of our visiting places.
According to the info which we received from Viator the 1th day lunch price was included, but the tour operator told that we need to pay. The price was 170 soles for two persons. I can’t understand why Viator and the tour operator provided different info.
5Best ever tour by an excellent team from start to finish
Incredible experience with 2 brilliant guides as well as great organisation by Fredi from the office. From 2 weeks to the tour Fredi Llamacponcca kept us updated . Timely collection. Knowledgeable guides who were also mindful of our ability to cope with steps and altitude. Day 1 we visited Sacred Valley, including Pisac and Ollantaytambo guide Fabrizio and Machu Picchu day- despite rain and sun playing hide and seek, our guide Edwin Borda was very knowledgeable and patiently answered all our questions. It was one of the best experience we have had on this holiday. Congratulations Team.
5It was great. Everything...
It was great. Everything was planned smoothly, and I really enjoyed the experience. The team did a good job getting everything sorted out so I didn't need to worry about any mishaps.
5I was skeptical about the...
I was skeptical about the price, but didn’t realise how many logistics aswell as other activities were included, was absolutely worth it. Both guides Fabricio and Jose were fantastic in their own ways and we had a group of just 4 which made it much more personable
5Fantastic experience, highly recommended!
Great experience with this tour arranged by Machu Picchu Latin America! From pre trip communications to the last stop of sending me to the airport, every detail was arranged smoothly without any hiccups. Despite heavy rain on day one, our tour guide Juan Carlos did a great job showing us the best parts of the sacred valley, his sense of humour and full engagement with everyone really made day one fun - - we covered a lot of places, sacred valley route is a must see for anyone’s Machu Picchu trip. We had Jose as our Machu Picchu guide on day two, he is very knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the tour, I read a Machu Picchu book in advance, I certainly learned a lot more after Jose’s tour. My daughter was so fascinated, she now wants to come back with her friends in the future. Special thanks to Fredi who customized my trip itinerary as we had to leave early to catch a flight, every detail was taken care of, all my questions were immediately answered, so impressive! There was a big surprise from Latam airlines that cancelled my flight and moved it to an earlier time without sending me any notice, on top of that our train arrived almost half hour late, I was really worried, Fredi kept me updated on the situation, arranged our driver Roman to send us to the airport directly. Roman really delivered under high pressure, we arrived at the airport ahead of planned time, he really helped us a big time! Overall everyone from the tour company made our Machu Picchu experience truly unforgettable, I will definitely recommend them to my friends!

About Cusco
Cusco, the old Inca capital high in the Peruvian Andes, blends massive stone walls with colonial churches and is the gateway to Machu Picchu.
The Plaza de Armas is the heart of the city, framed by the cathedral and the Jesuit church of La Compañía. Inca stonework survives throughout the centre, most famously at the Qorikancha, the sun temple on which the Spanish built a monastery, and in the twelve-angled stone on Hatun Rumiyoc street. San Blas, the artisans' quarter, climbs steeply with workshops and cafés.
Top-ranked sights in Cusco: Aguas Calientes, Machu Picchu, Ollantaytambo Ruins.
