    Best trip ever

    Best trip we had. Everything is so well organized. Yuri - the owner was very trustworthy, punctual and knowledgeable and flexible since we had 7 year old and some hikes were hard and we were very sow. We did not have to think about anything but buying plane tickets to Lima. If I had to do it myself , I would definitely spend months and months of planning and probably would send more. Prices are very competitive as well. Highly recommend

    Response from the operator: Hello dear Yuli: We are very glad to hear that you had a good trip Thank you very much for using us Best regards Peru Trek 4 Good

    EXCELLENT company for touring Cuzco/Machu Picchu area!!!

    EXCELLENT company to hire for all your tour needs in the Cuzco/Machu Picchu areas, we hired Yure for a private 3 day tour, everything from the pick up/drop off at the airport, to all of the in between was outstanding! Extremely knowledgeable in all of the rich history of the region, we felt we made the most of our short trip by hiring the best guide. We ended up as friends, and would love to be able to go back to see what we may have missed with Yure again. HIGHLY recommend Peru Trek 4 Good for all your guide needs in the area :)

    Response from the operator: Hello dear Diana and Diego: It was a pleasure, I was very happy with you Thank you very much for the review!!

    Excellent Guide for Cusco and Machu Picchu!

    I picked Yure Chavez for my tours in Cusco and Machu Picchu based on 2 previous TripAdvisor reviews. We connected via email and what’s app. Yure’s prices was very competitive for our family of 3. Yure was very good at advising on timing and trips he recommended prior to my arrival in Peru. He was patiently waiting for us at the Cusco airport. He did a wonderful job organising all our tickets and even getting us to the covid testing site the day before we left. The restaurants he took us to were excellent! I requested a trip to Rainbow Mountain only to struggle up the mountain 🤣. He surprised me by taking some spectacular pictures of us and sending them to me after each tour (see his photos below). I do recommend him and I would definitely approach him again to guide us if we ever returned to Cusco. Addendum: He did ask me to help him bring along a few items from Amazon which were not available in his country. These were simple items like sunglasses, vitamins. I was happy to do so. Trip to Cusco/Machu Picchu in Dec 2021

    Response from the operator: Hello dear Ting: Glad to hear that you had a nice trip !! I was very happy with your nice family Thank you for your time and the review Best regards Peru Trek 4 Good

    3 Best Private Tours of Cusco: City Tour, Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.

    How much does 3 Best Private Tours of Cusco: City Tour, Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu cost?

    +

    Prices start at $620 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Cusco usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does 3 Best Private Tours of Cusco: City Tour, Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu take?

    +

    Plan for about 72 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Cusco is not rushed.

    Is 3 Best Private Tours of Cusco: City Tour, Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 56 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 6 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable culture & history in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule 3 Best Private Tours of Cusco: City Tour, Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is 3 Best Private Tours of Cusco: City Tour, Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 72-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book 3 Best Private Tours of Cusco: City Tour, Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu?

    +

    Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Cusco can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Cusco and add a light layer if any part of the 72-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does 3 Best Private Tours of Cusco: City Tour, Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Cusco within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Cusco?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Cusco experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Sacred Valley Full Day Tour, Full-Day Humantay Lake Trek (Meals Included), Cusco: Rainbow Mountain & Red Valley Premium Day Trip with Meals. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Cusco?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Cusco?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
