Travelling with a friend instead of a guide
Great trip that includes the highlights of the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu. Christian was a fantastic guide, it felt more like travelling with a friend than with a guide! Even though Machu Picchu was a bit rainy, he made our visit truly unforgettable. Highly recommend!

The way to explore!
We did the 2 days 1 night tour to secret valley with Machu Picchu and Wayna Picchu mountain and we recommend Action Peru Treks! We had a very good service from the beginning to the end of our tour. The service was very professional, with clear explanations of all the steps, English speakers guides all the time ( super knowledgeable, friendly and kind) excellent choices of hotel for the overnight and restaurant for dinner. Highly recommend their services and this option of tour if you wish to explore this amazing area without camping and / or staying many nights around.

Sacred Valley Tour to Machu Piccu
Action Peru Treks is a premier Trek operator and did an excellent job with our small crew. I enjoyed the the professional guide service and the attention to all the details by the entire crew to making our journey exciting and comfortable. Would recommend this outfitter to any group looking to embark on this adventure.

Private Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu.
Odon was our guide and he was awesome! This tour and this company is highly recommended. The food, the sights, the mountain people, all excellent! Our private tour of the citadel was outstanding. The trains in and out were a nice touch. Communication before and during the tour are topnotch!

Extended Sacred Valley Tour
We did this activity with Action Peru Treks. We had a very positif and nice experience with them. They are very professional in following up and sending you emails about how to get ready and what to bring with you in advance.They picked us up from our hotel on time. Our Tour guide Kliser was very informed and pleasant and nice. He was very passionate about his job and it reflected in the way he explained and demonstrated things. To top it all; he has a very cute British accent and he knew all the perfect spots to take your picture and was very patient with us. Even the chauffeur was so polite and courteous, he would put a step for us to come down from the bus, which was spotless and very clean and comfortable. We were 4 and they took us on a private tour. It is an amazing tour to do to explore this area in Cusco. The landscaping is outstanding and all the stops were very interesting places to visit. My favorite was the salt pools. We did this before trecking the Inca trail the next day which was a very smart idea to get you used to the altitude. I would definitely recommend this company and would use them again if we go back to Cusco.

Why this scores 57
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Extended Sacred Valley Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Extended Sacred Valley Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $320 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 Extended Sacred Valley Tour take?
+
Plan for about 10 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 Extended Sacred Valley Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 57 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 last minute in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Extended Sacred Valley Tour?
+
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 Extended Sacred Valley Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 10-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Extended Sacred Valley Tour?
+
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 10-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Extended Sacred Valley Tour 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 Extended Sacred Valley Tour?
+
Included: Box Lunch; Round-trip transportation; Hotel pick up and drop off; English-speaking Tour Guide; and Lunch. Not included: Tourist Ticket for entry into archeological sites; and Entrance fee for the Maras salt mines. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Does Extended Sacred Valley Tour include hotel pickup?
+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 419 listed pickup locations in and around Cusco. Be ready about 20 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
What languages is Extended Sacred Valley Tour 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 Extended Sacred Valley Tour?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
What happens to Extended Sacred Valley Tour if the weather is bad?
+
It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Cusco. Standard cancellation terms apply: free cancellation up to 24 hours before the start.
What do travelers say about Extended Sacred Valley Tour?
