Friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate, he brought the region’s history and culture to life as we explored the Maras Salt Mines, Ollantaytambo, and other stunning sites. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, with fascinating insights, delicious food, and plenty of time to enjoy each stop. Alfredo’s clean, comfortable vehicle and attentive service kept us relaxed throughout the day. We highly recommend this wonderful experience to anyone visiting Cusco.

    Amazing experience in the Sacred Valley!

    Our Sacred Valley day tour from Cusco exceeded every expectation. Our guide, Alfredo, was respectful, incredibly knowledgeable, and made the entire day both fun and meaningful. We visited the breathtaking Maras Salt Mines, Ollantaytambo, and other incredible sites, but what made this tour special was learning about Inca history, customs, and meeting local people along the way. The vehicle was spotless and comfortable, the food was excellent, and every stop felt thoughtfully planned. If you’re visiting Cusco, don’t miss this tour, we couldn’t recommend it more highly!

    Response from the operator: Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We are thrilled Alfredo and the team gave you an unforgettable Sacred Valley experience. We always strive to deliver top-notch service, comfortable rides, and deep cultural connections. When you're ready for your next Peruvian adventure whether it's Machu Picchu or beyond—you know who to call. We'd love to plan your next trip! Thanks. The Peru Andes Discovery Team

    Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private Tour: questions travelers ask

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

    How much does Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $98 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Sacred Valley usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 7 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 Sacred Valley is not rushed.

    Is Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 25 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Sacred Valley, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private 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 Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 7-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private Tour?

    +

    Around 9 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 Sacred Valley 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 Sacred Valley and add a light layer if any part of the 7-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private 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 Sacred Valley 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 Sacred Valley?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Sacred Valley experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Best Private Sacred Valley Tour in Cusco ( with Pisac), From Urubamba & Ollantaytambo: Sacred Valley Day tour with Lunch, Machu Picchu Guided Tour from Aguas Calientes. 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 Sacred Valley?

    +

    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 Sacred Valley?

    +

    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 Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private Tour?

    +

    Included: Professional bilingual tour guide (English / Spanish); Hotel pickup and drop-off in central Cusco; Pre-tour briefing and consultation; and Round-trip private transport in air-conditioned vehicle. Not included: Peruvian buffet lunch in Urubamba; Dinner; Sacred Valley Tourist Ticket; and Maras Salt Mines entry fee. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 9 listed pickup locations in and around Sacred Valley. Be ready about 30 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.

    What languages is Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private 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 Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private Tour?

    +

    Is Full Day Sacred Valley of the Incas Private Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Infants are required to sit on an adult’s lap. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
