Top Cusco Day Trips - page 41

This was a great experience to see Machu Picchu while staying in Cusco, and there is nothing for you to plan besides being ready for pick up in the morning! The panoramic train ride was beautiful on the way to Machu Picchu, and the guides at each transition point were great. We had Roy as our tour guide for Machu Picchu and he was wonderful! Highly recommend for those wanting to see the world wonder, but find the planning process/getting there daunting

It was amazing tour. The guide Robert was very nice and friendly guy who took wonderful pictures. Travelling time is too much from Cusco so if you guys manage it stay overnight at Machu Picchu. It was long journey about 5 hours going and 5 hours coming back but a couple of hours at Machu Picchu was worth it.

The 2 days Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley tour was very worth it. There are so many things to see, but the time allocated for each site is sufficient, there is no rush from places to places, everything was well organized and the instruction is clear. Our guide Christian is very knowledgeable and friendly. He shared a lot of things with the group and patiently answer our questions. This tour is highly recommended if you do not have the luxury of time to explore the area.

This was an amazing way to see the Sacred Valley, Moray and Maras Salt Mines. The ATVs were fun and our guide was helpful. We had some confusion initially about the pick up point and time but were picked up at our hotel in the end. I was also confused about how much cash was required for admissions and a local tax. This did not take away however from the amazing adventure.

With an outstanding guide leading the way, the breathtaking scenery unfolded majestically, and riding tandem on the ATV, I felt invigorated by the adventure and captivated by the opportunity to document our journey. The archaeological sites stood as a testament to the ingenuity of the Incas' sophisticated agricultural practices, making it an unmissable destination for anyone passionate about history and ancient cultures.

What a wonderfully organized tour and such a great value! Our Tour guide Jonathan was great. He kept us safe and informed. The hike is difficult, I would highly suggest renting the horse for the trek up (90 sols). You will need the energy for the hike down which is quite long. Bring plenty of water, plenty of high calorie snacks, a poncho/rain jacket and hard-wearing shoes as it can be very wet and muddy. What a spectacular excursion, the lake is majestic and the hike up equally so. I will remember this forever!

Everything went very well from start to finish. Daniel, our guide, and Jorge, our driver, were excellent. From the very beginning, I felt safe and well taken care of. It’s important to be patient during pickup time since they collect other travelers as well, but the process was organized and smooth. I highly recommend dressing warmly, especially during the rainy and cold season. In our case, it even snowed. The altitude didn’t affect me, but Daniel and his team were always attentive, checking in to make sure everyone was feeling okay and explaining clearly how to handle the ATVs. The food was delicious—I honestly ate more than expected because everything tasted so good. The transportation was comfortable, and since the trip to and from the mountain is done by van, you can leave extra belongings there. Bringing a small pillow or blanket makes the ride even more comfortable. I’m very grateful for the entire experience and strongly encourage supporting the local team with a tip. I highly recommend this tour—the ATVs make the experience much easier and allow you to fully enjoy Rainbow Mountain.

Outstanding experience, friendly and sensitive guide, we took horses for the way up and therefore didn’t have any problems (exercise is not a good idea at this altitude) Be prepared for wind and the cold. Don’t miss this experience - higher than the highest mountain in Europe!
