Excellent guided tour to the archaeological monument of Machu Picchu. - The guide Eric gently picked us up at the hotel and accompanied us in every moment of the tour, explaining and showing in detail, very interesting aspects in various points of the ruins of Machu Picchu. He also took beautiful pictures of us, in picturesque places. It was a memorable visit, which was very worthwhile thanks to the excellent service of the guide, very knowledgeable of the history of the Inca people.

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. 😂

Excellent Guide - Eric was our guide. He has a lot of background about Inca culture. He provided us very good insights on Machu Pichu. Used a pace that was well paced and answered all our answers well.

Lost our money; our tour guide never showed up - Our tour guide Eric responded with only sketchy one-word responses to our messages the day before (we wanted to confirm our very early meetup because we had a 6am entry ticket), and then he never showed up. There were a few available guides at the entrance of Machu Picchu so we paid the same (expensive) fee to hire one of them. Luckily, the guide we ended up having (not associated with Viator) was fantastic, so we were happy Eric hadn't shown up (since we were not confident he would have been a good guide!), but we lost our money. Extremely disappointed.
