Good choice to see the 4 ruins around Cuzco - Well organized. Excellent value for money. There was no pickup at my hotel, because it was outside the center, but I looked for another one a 10-minute walk that did. I was advised in advance by wsp of the exact pickup time. Other tours make a very short visit to Sacsayhuamán. In this case, it is a reasonable time, although there you can be several hours if you want to see everything.

Convenient Transport to Ruins - Nice way to get to the ruins around the area. A little slow paced with periods of waiting for others to wrap up (but that's to be expected in a group tour). Complimentary water on arrival was nice.
