Four wheel fun!
What a great experience! Our guide was so helpful giving instructions to our small group of 60 something’s! It was easier than I thought and the views along the way were magnificent! Our driver made an extra stop on the way back and we got a textile tour, which was excellent. Highly recommend!

Andes, Amazon & Machu Picchu — 16 days of pure magic with family. Peru delivered beyond every expectation. 🇵🇪
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Exceptional Experience from Start to Finish We just returned from a 16-day trip through Peru with What a Trip, and we cannot recommend them highly enough. Our family of five traveled from Lima to Huaraz, Cusco, the Sacred Valley, Machu Picchu, and the Tambopata Amazon — a demanding itinerary that required seamless coordination at every step. What a Trip delivered on every single one. Our representative Nicolas was outstanding. He handled every detail with precision and professionalism: transfers, hotels, meals, guides, and everything in between. When unexpected changes or challenges came up along the way (as they always do on a trip like this), Nicolas dealt with them quietly and efficiently, often before we even noticed there had been an issue. He also went well beyond the logistics, personally recommending hikes, restaurants, and experiences that made the trip truly special. What impressed us most was how genuinely he cared. That kind of attentiveness is rare in any service industry. If you’re planning a trip to Peru and want everything handled with expertise and heart, look no further than What a Trip — and ask for Nicolas.

Above and beyond
What a Trip indeed. They went above and beyond. Did roughly four activities with this agency and all of them exceeded my expectations. They communicate clearly the schedule, what’s needed and pick up time. They even set up a custom activity. I recommend them to all my friends, family and will definitely be booking with them again. Thanks for the great adventures.
Response from the operator: Hi Jessie🙋🏻♀️! Thank you so much for sharing your experience with such warmth. We are truly delighted to know that you enjoyed your activities with us and that everything met your expectations. It was a real pleasure for us to accompany you on this journey, and we will be happy to welcome you again on your next visit to Peru. We truly appreciate your kind words and the gesture of recommending us to your loved ones. See you soon! 🌈 The What a Trip team 🌍✨

Fun and adrenaline in the right amount
Beautiful landscapes and attentive guide. Worth the experience! We've been wearing helmets all the way. The guide indicated us the right marches to drive, since we had no experience in the direction. It was very fun!

Why this scores 70
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Cusco Sacred Valley ATV Adventure Tour with Experienced Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Cusco Sacred Valley ATV Adventure Tour with Experienced Guide cost?
+
Prices start at $42 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 Sacred Valley ATV Adventure Tour with Experienced Guide 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 Cusco Sacred Valley ATV Adventure Tour with Experienced Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 70 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 14 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 Sacred Valley ATV Adventure Tour with Experienced Guide?
+
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 Sacred Valley ATV Adventure Tour with Experienced Guide suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 12. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 6-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Cusco Sacred Valley ATV Adventure Tour with Experienced Guide?
+
Around 5 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 Cusco Sacred Valley ATV Adventure Tour with Experienced Guide 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.
