Great service in the entire Cusco area.
I contacted Pedro months before. I asked him for a private tour for nine people from Puno to Cusco, passing through the Palcoyo rainbow mountain and visiting Andahuaylillas. Everything went perfectly, on time, price, and schedule with a great driver (Juan Carlos) and mountain guide. We also did the Sacred Valley (Chinchero, Maras, Moray, Ollantaytambo) with them, as well as the Pisac tour and five archaeological sites in Cusco (Qorikancha...), and everything was punctual and at a fair price. Likewise, he provided us with transportation from Ollantaytambo to Cusco after visiting Machu Picchu and the final transfer to the Cusco airport. Good service, Pedro's kindness, and they fulfilled what was agreed upon. I will only say that the 10-passenger van is not comfortable for nine people, and it is better to hire the 14-passenger van for a better experience. Recommended agency, kindness, immediate response to questions, and good service. Thank you, Pedro.

Puno à Cusco 3 dias
We spent 3 days with Don Pedro between Puno and Cusco, and I highly recommend both the trip and the guide. He knew where to go, was never reluctant to bring us in more remote areas, genuinely in love with his region/country, and also very kind. Gracias Pedro
Response from the operator: Mil gracias, por haber confiado, en nuestro equipo de trabajo tambien como persona estoy muy satisfecho de haber cumplido con su expectativas en este Tours que realizamos con su familia, gracias por la confianza a este equipo de nuestra empresa, esperando una vez mas otra aventura.

"Excellent tour to see the essentials of Cusco."
An excellent experience from the start. The tour through Qoricancha, Sacsayhuaman, Qenqo and Tambomachay was incredible, each place has its magic and a lot of history. Pedro was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable, always willing to answer our questions and give us time to explore and take photos. The organization was punctual and well coordinated. I highly recommend this tour if you want to see the best of Cusco in a short amount of time!
Response from the operator: Kilder, gracias por conocerte y por esa confianza, de alagarme, del equipo que brindamos a todo nuestros clientes, no me despido solo hasta luego , mil gracias..

Why this scores 67
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay cost?
+
Prices start at $20 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 City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay take?
+
Plan for about 6 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 City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 4 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 6-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay?
+
Around 1 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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay 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.
What is included in City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay?

Included: Pick up from your hotel; In-vehicle air conditioning; and Tourist guide in English or Spanish. Not included: Ticket to Qoricancha (20 soles per person); Partial tourist ticket (70 soles per person); and Lunch. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
What languages is City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay offered in?
+
It is offered in English and Spanish. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for City Tour Cusco Qoricancha Sacsayhuaman Qenqo Tambomachay?
