An unforgettable visit! - Pleasant and indispensable support to fully understand and enjoy the visit of Machu Picchu.
Our guide was efficient and friendly, she managed our visit to enjoy the views and monuments with the impression of being almost alone, letting groups leave faster.
His explanations allowed us to grasp many elements of the history and architecture of the site: without our guide, we would have missed a lot of things

Eric was our tour guide... - Eric was our tour guide for the day and he was very knowledgeable about the history of the Inka Empire and Machu Picchu. He graciously waited several hours with us for the fog to clear to get the perfect picture at Machu Picchu. While at times we were pessimistic that the fog would clear, he continued to be optimistic and it turns out it cleared out enough to get a great picture. Not only he’s a great tour guide, he’s also a very good photographer as well. 😂

Informative and Insights to Peru in the modern world - The tour was informative and well paced. The guide, Eric, provided information not only to the historical significance of Machu Picchu, highlighting its architecture and archeological importance. While waiting for the fog to clear, conversation flowed easily as Eric provided insights to the socioeconomic situation of Peru in the twenty-first century. This provides a glimpse into the local lives that allows one to understand deeper on the customs, culture and diversity of the community. This is much appreciated to be able to understand more about Peru as a nation in the modern world.

BEST TOUR GUIDE - Eric was an absolutely amazing and knowledgeable tour guide! My friends and I asked him a bunch questions throughout the tour, and he had an answer for everything. He explains things so clearly and truly made us appreciate Machu Picchu on a deeper level.
He also knew all the best photo spots, and even though the weather wasn’t ideal, we still left with amazing pictures.
If you haven’t booked your tour with Eric yet, do it!

Private Guide to Machu Picchu - We marked on the time and worked out. We met at the entrance of Machu Picchu, after we combined by whatsapp. The Guia Diego is very experienced and provided an incredible experience, with explanations and made our beautiful photos. We think that without a guide the visit would lose a lot.

Amazing tour with Sophia - Sophia, our guide, was amazing! We had circuit 3 and she explained everything in detail. Honestly, without a guide we wouldn’t feel the place the way we did
