Cusco walking tour
Nancy_A, Apr 2024
Fabrizio showed us the most beautiful views of Cusco and gave us an excellent tour of San Pedro market including tips on food to enjoy and food to avoid. He took us to the best place for tamales in all of Cusco, which was a tiny kiosk in the square - Delicious! He was entertaining and informative, but most of all he was aware of our need to take it easy as it was our first day in Cusco and we needed to acclimate. Well, done, Fabrizio!
