Nice tour, however our guide was not particularly in a good shape that day. But very eloquent and instructed. We had the impression that he expedite the end of the tour.
Very good
Tour was good and the guide was very knowledgeable.
Incredible tour. it was the the perfect tour after arriving two hours prior to the tour. The sites we visited were well chosen to give a great view and cultural knowledge of Cusco. Our guide had a tremendous amount of knowledge and provided insightful cultural and historical context at all the sites we visited. A must tour to select for your first day.
Good tour with a good overview of the incan-spanish buildings. visiting the markets was fun too. unfortunately one of the sights were closed on account of the holidays and we could not see them.
