Sacred Valley of the Incas - Had an excellent day with Oscar of Exclusive Inka Tours touring the Sacred Valley of the Incas starting from our hotel in Urubamba. Oscar was adept at storytelling and giving us an in depth understanding of Inca culture and the importance of Ollantaytambo, Moray, Maras, and Chincero. Highly recommended for a comprehensive private tour of the sacred valley!

Excellent service: on-time, friendly, knowledgeable - Cintya did a terrific job of making the arrangements ahead of time. Everything ran like clockwork and she frequently checks on progress and satisfaction. BTW, her English is excellent. Tour guides were on-time, knowledgeable and enthusiastic to share the proud Inca history and traditions. I did Sacred Valley tours, Machu Picchu, and Cusco tours. All good! Cintya even arranged good weather for my visit. My first visit to Peru, so a bit nervous about visiting a new area and people. But you will be in good hands with Cintya and her team.

Amazing tour of the sacred Valley - This trip was amazing. Our guide, Oscar, was incredible, one of the best guides we've ever had on a tour anywhere. His knowledge of the history of each of the sites as well as Incan history in general was amazing and made for a really interesting trip. There are a number of different sites in the Sacred Valley, each beautiful and incredible in their own way. Book this one, you will enjoy it!

Sacred Valley Private Tour - We took a private tour of sacred valley with Cesar. We had a great time visiting Chincero, Moray, Maras Salt Mine and Ollantaytambo. We particularly enjoyed the textile demo in Chinchero. Cesar was very patient while we bought some Alpaca goods, very good prices. Cesar passed along a lot of knowledge during our tour. Wood definitely recommend to others. The private tour allowed us to travel at our pace.

Great Way To Travel/Tour Ollantaytambo to Cusco - Miguel was knowledgeable about all aspects of the sites we visited. He and his brother operate their family tour company in a very personal and accommodating manner. At the pickup at our hotel in Ollantaytambo, we provided our flight time in Cusco and the Sacred Valley sites we had already visited. Miguel took us on a perfect itinerary to fill our day and make our flight.
