Highly recommended - Our guide Freddy was extremely knowledgeable, open-minded and friendly, ready to go an extra mile to accommodate our needs and offer a little something extra. The tour itself was well arranged, providing a great overview of historical sites in Cusco and its surroundings, giving a deep insight into the history and culture of Inkas.
P.s. Freddy’s great camera skills are also worth mentioning

Private Tour Cusco & surrounding - It was too detailed guided tour. Guide was knowledgeable & super friendly! Each & every site he explained in detailed manner.
For single person - I felt it was expensive tour just for 5-6 hours with $190; I would have selected cheaper available options! however the amount of knowledge one would get after 6 hrs would be too much! It helped me for my next 2-3 days at Cusco & other tours! I was able to connect the information that I received on this day with my other 3 days tour at Cusco/Machu Pichhu! I felt it was worth it!
