Juan is the best! - Juan was our tour guide and he is the absolute best. He answered every one of our questions and was deeply knowledgeable. Taking this tour early in our trip was a fantastic idea because it gave us a lot of knowledge for the remainder of the trip. I would recommend Juan to everyone!

Wonderful tour of the city of Cusco - We had the team pick us up from the airport and take us through the various archealogical sites. The knowledge of the sites and the information they provided was amazing. Thank you for an amazing time.

Excellent - We had a fantastic Cusco city Tour with them. Communication with them was so smooth. Their representative kept in touch with us throughout booking the tour. Our guide Manuel was great. Peru is once in a lifetime holiday experience and Andean adventures made it even better.. even more memorable.

Very nice surprise! - We hired Amazing to guide us to the archaeological sites Q'engo, Tambomachay, and Saqsayhuaman and who guided us was Dany. He and his brother picked us up at the hotel and took us to see the main sites of Cusco. Dany is a very attentive and delicate guide and knows a lot about the history of each place. We recommend Amazing for these tours. Above average.

We were hesitant about booking this... - <p>We were hesitant about booking this tour, due to the fact that there were only five reviews in total. I am so glad we did! Erica, our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly and helpful. She picked us up from the hotel and clarified our itinerary. Usually tourists start at the bottom, in Cusco, and end up in Sacsayhuaman instead Erica reversed the order of the five destinations. This way we avoided the crowds.</p> <p>Our five stops were all interesting. I just wish the powers that be would allow us to take photos. Cusco and probably the Peruvian government are very protective of their interior relics and do not allow any photos to be taken inside of buildings. So instead I purchased a booklet of postcards of the artwork of the Cathedral.</p> <p>If you can ask for Erica, do so!!!!!<br/> My favorite part of the tour was at the end when we asked Erica for a restaurant recommendation. We said we wanted to have lunch where she would take her family, NOT where tourists would go. I wish I had taken a picture of the menu so I can recommend that restaurant to everyone.</p>

We booked this tour to see the ruins... - <p>We booked this tour to see the ruins around Cusco. We wanted to have a guide that understood the history, and would give us a personalized experience. Our guide did just that. He took us around in an order that seemed to avoid the hoards of tourists. He was very attentive and knowledgeable. We could have spent a little less time in the churches in Cusco, but i'm sire that is personal preference. We had been to the market the day before so we talked him into taking us to the best Peruvian doughnut shop in Cusco. I wish I could remember our guides name because he was fantastic.</p>

Very fast - Cusco Cathedral, Qoricancha - the Sun Temple and Archaeological Temples in an afternoon is madness! Very fast! It is worth taking 1 day only to the Cathedral and Qoricancha, the Temple of the Sun. And an afternoon to the temples.
