Great experience with Pauld. A terrific guide, informative and generous with his time. Finished with a wonderful pisco sour. Highly recommend the experience.

Knowledgeable, kind guide, but left feeling short changed. Even for such a cheap tour. There was no pisco sour apart of this tour, and it ended 90 minutes earlier than scheduled. We were told be organizer before tour started that not many had signed up, but they were going to have the tour for us anyway, but that we must tip the tour guide. Wish I would have booked another tour.

Walking tour is a nice opportunity to know more about Cuzco and explore the city. It makes more sense doing it with the tour guide, kinda find another meaning when walking around the city after. Tour guide Nillo was very friendly and kind

Fun and informative

The guide, Alci?, was friendly and very knowledgable. We visited a good mix of sites and went at a comfortable pace. I enjoyed the tour - thank you!

Great tour

The tour was great and very insightful. It was a great way to get around the city and see sights that we would’ve otherwise missed. Nilo did a great tour, and it was at a very good pace.

Wonderful!

Robert_F, Apr 2025
Tour was relatively lackluster - we saw the sights, but we didn’t really learn much history and it was more people than advertised (closer to 20 vs the 10 max). Also no advertisement that the guides only work for tips - especially since we were hustled for a larger tip than we felt the tour warranted. Overall disappointing experience.

Perfect for first timers in Cusco!

Abraham_V, Jun 2024
Ernesto was really professional and informative. We could feel his passion for doing the tour and really helped us get acclimated to Cusco. Would definitely reccomend!

Amazing walking tour!

Alana_B, Jun 2024
This city walking tour was incredible! So much history I learned in one day. And also came across so many new beautiful sights while on this tour! Kevin (guide) was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. He also took some great pictures! Thank you for such an amazing day!

Decepción
