Unreliable

Alfonso_R, Feb 2026
They didn't come to pick me up. I double checked that my booking was correct, as well as the pick up location. They said that they didn't find my reservation

Great tour with William!

William - The Best Guy with Best Tour

Definitely recommended. It was such a perfect experience and "William" has made it more fun with his knowledge and sense of humor. Awesome guy who loves his job.

The tour guide, Rony, was friendly and knowledgeable. The views were beautiful and the buffet lunch was very good. I had a great time. The only slight negative point was the confusing communication from the tour operator about where the tour pickup spot would be.

Sacred Valley

Good full day tour to see some of the other popular ruins and cities around Cusco. Tour guide was informative and knowledgeable about the history of Peru, The Inca and their society.

Great day out

Katherine_W, Jun 2025
The trip is great and you do see everything that is listed. The guide was very encouraging and helpful. Would recommend this tour

Great Sacred Valley tour

This was an absolute incredible tour!! Very informative, and we got to see all the major sights! It was a long day, but well worth every penny and every minute spent.

Excellent!!

Nicole_M, Apr 2025
I wasnt sure about this tour at first. There was a lack of communication prior. Once the tour guide queoma started talking i knew it was going to be good. David the driver was excellent as well! It was the smoothest bus ride. Queoma had so much information on the history and culture of peru. The pace of the tour was perfect. There was an option to get off at ollytambo instead of going back to cusco which i would do next time. The bus was big and comfortable with big windows to take pictures.

Amazing guide and very well planned and organized. Would recommend to friends looking to check out Pisaq and Ollantaytambo!

Not impressed

Nicolas_S, Aug 2024
I am very surprised this tour got such good ratings and suspect that Viator is selecting the reviews? The tour guide - although very nice - didn't speak good english and the content shared was not very informative... We spent 40mins in shops, which when you pay £40 for the tour, i dont think is acceptable.

Sacred valley highlights

Kathleen_M, Aug 2024
Loved all the background information from our guide, all the stops were great. We never went to the textile factory which was one of the reasons I booked this tour over some of the others so I was disappointed in that. The silver jewelry making was interesting but mostly just another stop to shop, we got some local food which was some of my favorite in Peru at that little town. Ruins and temples were amazing - some stair climbing required but not terrible. Would do this tour again!!

Amazing Day

Rebecca_E, Apr 2024
The Scared Valley Full Day tour was great. Adrien was very knowledgeable, helpful, and entertaining. He went the extra mile to help us locate a pharmacy. It was a great experience. The sites were breathtaking and lunch was delicious as well. I highly recommend this tour.

Silvia_M, Sep 2025

Bueno solo por el guía y valle sagrado. Muchas fallas

Pamela_S, Sep 2023
El Valle sagrado es hermoso! Tuvimos un excelente guía de touristas. No nos vamos muy contentos porque no siguieron el itinerario marcado, no pudimos bajar a Awana kancha como menciona, tampoco conocimos Urumamba, en donde solo paramos a comer, pero no vimos nada. El chofer maneja muy mal, ni frena en los topes. En el itinerario menciona que si quieres tomar el tren de 4:30 les avises para que te lleven. Yo les comenté que tenía mis boletos de tren 4:30 pm y me hicieron cambiar mis boletos de tren. El día del tour si me llevaron temprano a la estación de tren y hubiera podido tomarlo a tiempo. Mala comunicación por parte de la agencia.
