A lot of History Packed into One Day

Ryan_J, Nov 2023

Frank was an excellent tour guide. Very informative and relaxing. He translated to me in English after explaining to the group in Spanish. It is a busy day trip as you see several places with a lot of Inka culture. Really enjoyed my experience.

Great tour to see more ruins!

sharon_n, Oct 2023

As an only English speaking American— do not be surprised if you are the only one or just a couple in a group of about 15. I was the only one but Julio did not rely on my Spanish speaking husband to translate for me. He made sure to do a special translation for me at each location. We went to 3 ruins, a salt mine and a couple stops to learn and (if we want) shop for local textiles. We had a lunch at a buffet where obviously all the tours stop at but there lots of food options and even desserts. There are bathrooms at nearly all the stops. Things to Be aware — the “hotel pickup” was someone who worked at this tour company coming to get you at your hotel but we still walked a few blocks before actually arriving at the tour bus. it was a full bus! — the hotel drop off at the end was near the Plaza De Armas —Do not be afraid to speak up and ask for AC/ fan to be turned on because after a few stops the bus did get uncomfortable for me and we were starting to sweat with all the walking/ climbing. — some parts of the bus rides are very long and very bumpy! Especially the last ruins at sunset. We were nearly not able to go in but our tour guide (with the help of another) was able to talk them into letting us in for a few minutes.

Fun packed day in the Sacred Valley

Nancy_B, Sep 2023

The tour guide was wonderful. I was the only non Speaking Spanish person and she spent a lot of individual time with me. Amazing sites and history of the Inca and pre Inca cultures. Good demonstrations of weaving and dying, salt mining and silver smithing. Nice buffet lunch.

Go book this tour with another company.

Hazel_C, Oct 2022

This tour felt rushed! It wasn't in the description that there would be a lot of walking up the stairs and back on a couple locations. The tour guide did a lot of talking that we couldn't even stop much for a photo op. He didn't give us time to take pictures. He'll do a history then on to the next stop. We also felt that non-Spanish speakers be put in a separate tour with English speakers only so that the guide doesn't have to take too much time in translating. He didn't even say anything to a fellow tourist who was rude and was talking loudly on the shuttle bus.

Good overview

Titus_C, Aug 2022

It's a great way to see a lot in one day - we were impressed by the archaeological sites, everything was included when it comes to entrances. Our guide was a bit rushed to best the crowds, but other than that the trip was great.

Sacred valley in a very full day!

David_B, Jul 2022

Great tour for those with limited time. Was a full activity packed day covering the key sites in the valley. Guide was knowledgable and kept use busy and entertained. Recommended.

Worthwhile experience.

keith_g, May 2022

It was very complete. A lot was packed in to this tour but there was sufficient time to appreciate the sites. Our tour guide Mike was knowledgeable and helpful. It was strenuous at times

ollyantetambo and Pisacca tour

Fernando_R, May 2022

The guide was fantastic, she was able to give us a wonderful history to the Inca and coral civilizations that primarily developed great agricultural products. Namely the corn and the potato. We saw a variety of very important archaeological areas that help protect certain aspects of the Inca empire. I would highly recommend this tour.

Excellent job and we had a great time!

SiongMing_W, Aug 2021

We had a great tour - very comprehensive-visited a lot of places. The tour was very responsive to our chat via Viator app. Our tour guide was Raul. He did an excellent job of taking us around, very knowledgeable, keeping the group together so we were all on schedule, pleasant, helped with the pics... And, some free samples along the ways....

Great tour

Ruth T, Oct 2019

As a solo traveler this was the cheapest tour to see all of the Sacred Valley as other operators quoted me almost $60 more You really do see everything and it was a fantastic lunch. The company is great and arrived to pick me up in time and even worked with me to get me to the airport on time. Excellent communication. And the tour guide was wonderful, knowledgeable and so nice. . My only criticism is that the tour guide had to do interpretation for both Spanish and English guests. It mightve been easier if it was an English guide for English speakers and a Spanish guide for Spanish speakers. However, that doesn't take away from the fact that this was a great tour.

Response from Host, Nov 2019

We are very grateful for your valuable opinion about our service. The entire Eco Path trek team is very happy to have done the tour with us.

Fabulous Tour - Most comprehensive itinerary for 1 day tour

AllisonA_L, Jan 2019

Julie was our tour guide. She did a fabulous job of taking us around to all the sites in the Sacred Valley. She was very knowledgeable of all the history in the area. There was additionally time for shopping at several of the locations, which I loved. The trip included Chincero, Moray, The Maras Salt Mine, Ollatyambo, and Pisac, and a stop to a textile maker, and Pisac market. Excellent day, and well worth the money spent. I highly recommend. Lunch was included.

Excellent tour - Highly recommend

AllisonA_L, Jan 2019

Julie was our tour guide and did an excellent job showing our small group around. They pick you up from your hotel. I chose this tour because it was the most comprehensive and went to the most places in one day. We even had time to take in some shopping at the market in Pisac. I highly recommend. This trip exceeded my expectations. Loved every minute. I really enjoyed interacting with the people and getting to experience the cultural side of Peru.

HERMOSA EXCURSION. PERO ESTAFAN CON LOS PRECIOS.

AliciaElizabet_L, Oct 2022

El recorrido es hermoso y muy completo. Los pueblos visitados son bellos. El guía Junior excelente. El almuerzo mediocre, restaurant con muy poca variedad de alimentos. Además nos ESTAFARON. Una excursión que comprándola en Cusco nos pedían 100 soles, es decir 26 dólares, a nosotros nos cobraron 79 dólares.

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Estimada Alicia agradecemos su cincera opinión sobre su experiencia en el tour de Valle Sagrado. Pero queremos aclarar que nuestro tour para el valle sagrado que nuestra empresa organiza incluye boletos de visita a los atractivos, almuerzo, guiado y transporte . Por lo cual cumplimos en brindar todo los detalles según nuestro itinerario de viaje, pero también queremos aclarar que el costo del cual menciona nosotros no cobramos todo ese valor, en un sistema de reservas por aplicativos de viajes usted además está pagando costos administrativos e impuestos. Si hay personas que le ofrecen otros valores, debo hacer referencia que muchos de ellos son personas informales quienes no pagan ni personal ni impuestos haciendo una competencia desleal.
