Amazing experience!

Abhinav_K, Apr 2024

This was a wonderful experience from the beginning to end. Lobo was our guide and he was so pleasant and informative that it made visiting each site that much better. They were timely and I would highly recommend them.

Small group tour

Thomas_M, Apr 2024

I enjoyed a semi-private tour. There were a total of 3 plus the guide in our group, so it was easy to get around the sites efficiently & hear his explanations. He was clearly knowledgeable concerning Inca history and the sites visited. Be aware that like other tour operators, this tour includes a visit to a lama & alpaca "textile experience". While interesting, it's also a captive sell environment.

On time and experienced guide and driver

Robertico_F, Apr 2024

We would be picked up by taxi from our hotel in Cusco. from there we started our tour with a small group. Our guide very experienced. We speak Spanish/English with the guide and he spoke English well. A day before the reservation, the guide sent a WhatsApp message to make an appointment. Taxi (mini) was on time. The taxi looked very clean and tidy. Very experienced driver Helpful and can provide good information about the sights and attractions. Tip: don't forget to ask the guide where the best places to eat in Cusco are!

Great experience and fun tour.

Rakhee_S, Apr 2024

The guide was excellent and very patient. He kept a pace to accommodate everyone. Highly recommended tour.

Great tour

Niall_M, Apr 2024

Our guide and driver were Miguel and Willy, they were excellent. They were very friendly and Miguel was extremely knowledgeable about the sites, about Cusco and about the Incas in general. Would highly recommend this tour.

Very Knowledgeable and Helpful Tour Guide!

Juan_C, Apr 2024

Our tour guide was very knowledgeable, his English was pretty good and he went the extra mile to make us feel comfortable with the altitude. My friend got sick and he got her a Gatorade and advised her to slow down. The ruins were pretty cool to see and enjoyed them even more knowing all the details the tour guide shared with us. 100% recommended.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

The company and its workers always worry about the integrity and health of our clients, which is why we always emphasize that, apart from selling tour services, we always worry about the integrity of our tourists. For us it is a real pleasure to show our clients the history and also recommend what they should do or not do during our visit to our tourist attractions. We also offer short groups so that they can feel very comfortable as much as the guide and the clients. Thank you very much for Highlight the work of our guide. Thank you very much friends. Regards.

Informative and Interesting tour!

Julia_C, Apr 2024

This was a really great and interesting tour. Very small, only 5 people. Our guide, Tito, was knowledgeable and explained historical and cultural details of all the sites. It was fun to see the llamas at the end! Perfect length.

Great tour of many archeological sites at Cusco

Gobinda_S, Apr 2024

We had really good experience with this tour. The operator was highly flexible when we needed to reschedule the tour at the very last moment due to a sickness. The rescheduled tour went flawless. Cusco is a wonderful place by itself to explore. Even after visiting Sacred valley and Machu Picchu we found so many new and interesting things to learn about Incas at Cusco. I highly recommend this tour.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

We are very grateful for your nice comment and we would also like to let you know that the company not only cares about offering services but we are also very concerned about the integrity and health of our clients, which is why we are very flexible when one wants to change schedules. and we also like to feel that the passenger is very satisfied with our service.

Professional Tour with a very personal touch

Henry_T, Apr 2024

It was a very personal and detailed tour by the operator Andes Tours. Lobo, our tour guide was very knowledgeable, provided detailed explanation to our questions. He was very flexible, guiding us around town even after the tour ended.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

We are very excited and we are also very happy to know that you liked the tour that we have offered. We are also very happy. Because you highlight the work of our guide LOBO and for us it is a true honor to hear that you are very satisfied with the work and the work of the guide Thank you very much, we are also very grateful for your comment about the tour service

Very nice tour

Jamil_P, Mar 2024

We had a really nice tour with our tour guide Jose Ttito. He was super knowledgeable and provided us ample information of the history and cultural background of the Inca people and all the sites we visited. This tour price does not include the admission tickets to the ruins, you need to pay 70 soles separately. This tour includes free water bottles which was a good perk. I would say the only thing that this tour company can improve on is their initial communication. There was no welcome message from them or even letting us know about the additional admission fee until I had to ask about it. All other tours I have booked with other companies in Peru provided us with a wonderful welcome message and everything we need to know about the tour. This tour company needs to learn from that.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

For the Andes Peru tours company it is always very good to receive comments and very recommendations to have a better service for all our clients in the future, thank God, most of our clients are very happy from the beginning that we have contact with them but suddenly you have been looking for a little more gratitude Or something similar, please excuse us, we could not meet your expectations of giving you a great welcome suddenly with flowers Or something similar, but we are still very happy because we know that you liked the Tour and also the work of our guide Thank you very much we are very grateful to you we look forward to seei you in the future Your guide. JOSE TTITO. REGARDS.

Fun and educational

Jessica_P, Mar 2024

Fun tour with great communication. Learned a lot about Inca history in Cusco! The altitude at some of the sites (13000 ft for the highest) is no joke so make sure to be acclimated a bit as the mild hike felt to us like a more strenuous one at that altitude—at sea level we wouldn’t have even broken a sweat but it really got our heart rate up.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

very good My friends thank you very much for warning us about the altitude of 13,000 m high it was actually a real challenge for us but we the company always try to take it calmly and also with a lot of humor because these places also have a lot of history to learn and We carried out our challenge. Thank you very much, keep going. Thank you very much to God. Super hickers...

Good introduction to Cisco

Nicolle_S, Mar 2024

Wonderful tour!

Yoruo_C, Mar 2024

I thoroughly enjoyed the Cusco City Four Ruins half-day tour. The guide and driver were friendly, ensuring a safe and comfortable journey throughout. Our guide, Jose, impressed us with his professionalism and extensive knowledge of the sites. Additionally, Jose's thoughtful gesture of capturing beautiful pictures enhanced our overall experience. Highly recommended!

Entrance fee not included. Not 6 hours.

Maria_S, Feb 2024

Advert indicates tour is 6 hours. We barely did 4 hours. Also, no indication was provided about having to pay for entrance fees.

Response from Host, Feb 2024

Good day, greetings, the guide you worked with you, we went to pick you up at 9:30 from your hotel to visit everything that is on the visit list, but you wanted to take a 6-hour tour, please read it carefully. What is included, what is not included, when you are going to hire a service in our case. It is very clear that the tour is 5 hours long. For example, we started at 9:30 in the morning from your hotel and we finished at 2:00 pm in the afternoon, if you count more hours are more than 5 hours the tour that we have given you So the tickets are not included so you have to verify When you are just hiring a tour. In the Tour we have had more participants with you and they were very happy and delighted with the Tour but you suddenly wanted something more. you should tell us before to do this comment that for us it is very surprising because we saw you also very happy With the service we even had to leave you in a very special place Markets San Pedro thanks to your requests and our complacency. So we are suddenly very surprised that you have written this type of comments but also thank you very much for everything.

Adventure of a lifetime, Cusco

Bruce_D, Jan 2024

Our guide, Carlos was incredibly knowledgeable, as well as having the ancestral background of an Inca. His perspectives were amazing. We saw the 12 angle stone, four ruins and an alpaca farm with all kinds of llamas alpacas even condors. Fantastic tour.
