Cusco MTB Tour
I had a fantastic solo experience exploring the best singletrack, Inca ruins, and even urban downhill with Kinti in Cusco. He was an incredible guide - knowledgeable, patient, and fun. Leading the way through beautiful and technical trails that gave me a great feel for the region. There is a fair amount of techinical terrain so I wouldn’t recommend it for beginners, but Kinti did an excellent job breaking down each section and explaining what to expect. My rental was great and Kinti had all the gear you need. I’m already looking forward to returning and riding the Sacred Valley trails next time!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re really happy to hear that you had such a great solo riding experience with us in Cusco. It was a pleasure sharing the trails with you and showing you a mix of singletrack, Inca history, and some urban downhill fun. The trails around Cusco are truly special, and we’re glad you enjoyed the technical sections and the challenge they bring. We always try to make sure every rider feels comfortable and confident by explaining the terrain, adjusting the pace, and sharing tips along the way. Thank you for recognizing that — it means a lot to our team. We’re also happy to hear the bike and equipment were perfect for the adventure. Taking care of the details allows riders to focus on enjoying the landscapes and the ride. We’ll be waiting for you when you come back to explore the Sacred Valley trails! There are many more epic routes and adventures waiting for you here in Peru. Until next time, keep riding and see you on the trails! 🚵♂️🏔️🤘

Sacred ride of the Incas
These guys were great! They picked us up at the hotel took us on several different trails. They were knowledgeable about all the local ruins, farm land and history. They provided snacks and drinks. They took a bunch of pictures and videos and sent them to us. Mountain Bile were quality brands. In addition, they were great mountain bikers as well.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for all your words amigos, we really loved riding with you and showing our city around to you. thank you so much for choosing us and we wish you the best.

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cusco by Bike: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Cusco by Bike cost?
+
Prices start at $87 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 Cusco by Bike take?
+
Plan for about 3 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 Cusco by Bike worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 21 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 Cusco by Bike?
+
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 Cusco by Bike suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 10. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 3-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Cusco by Bike?
+
Around 7 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 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Cusco by Bike 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, Peruvian Cooking Class Cocktails and Market Tour in Cusco, 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.
