A long and exhausting day, but absolutely worth it for the views and experiences. We were picked up around 5:50 AM and didn’t return until about 6:15 PM, so be prepared for a very full day. One important tip: the altitude in the Sacred Valley is even higher than Cusco, so I strongly recommend waiting at least a full day before doing this tour to acclimate. Many people in our group, myself included, dealt with headaches or nausea from the altitude, so definitely bring any altitude sickness medications you use and don’t underestimate the value of coca tea/coca candies.
The roads are very winding and bumpy, so if you’re prone to motion sickness, come prepared. The day is also very physical — my phone logged the equivalent of 55+ floors climbed between the ruins, stairs, and walking paths. Combined with the altitude, it can definitely wear you out. There aren’t many opportunities to rest in the itinerary other than on the bus. Still, I wouldn’t change a thing about the itinerary.
Every stop felt unique: we watched a fascinating local weaving demonstration, sampled salt from the famous mines, saw tons of alpacas and guinea pigs, and explored incredible ruins throughout the valley. The scenery constantly changes and there’s so much history packed into one day.
A few recommendations:
* Bring multiple water bottles — there aren’t many convenient opportunities to buy more.
* Dress in layers. I went from a tank top in the sun to a winter jacket once the wind picked up.
* Sunscreen and sunglasses are essential at this altitude.
* Bring altitude sickness remedies and motion sickness meds if you’re sensitive to either.
Our guide, Lily, was fantastic. She shared so much history and cultural context throughout the day, and she did an excellent job keeping the group moving efficiently so we stayed ahead of the biggest crowds. Overall, an unforgettable experience and one of the highlights of the trip.

This was a great way to see the Sacred Valley! Pickup and the drive was seamless, everything was planned out really well. Lily was a great tour guide, she’s really passionate about educating her guests about the history.

We enjoyed it very much. We visited several exceptional places. The trip was perfectly organized, and our guide was full of enthusiasm, offering us plenty of information about the sites.

The tour itself was wonderful - being able to see all of these places in one tour was great. However they need some organization in the pick-up process. We were literally forgotten - told the pick-up would be at 6:30am, after 15min then 30 min, then an hour I was messaging / calling the company about our pick-up. Finally 1.25hrs later they sent a taxi to meet up with the tour group that was already at the first stop. I’m thankful they were able to get us there, but to forget us with no apology was not okay.
I’d recommend this to a friend but confirm pick-up multiple times.
