Sacred Valley and Ollantaytambo
The organization was very easy and friendly. They arrived on time at our hotel and we were able to tour the places we wanted, surrounded by history that Javier interpreted for us with precision and great knowledge. We ate delicious food at a good buffet and enjoyed immensely going up to the Temple of the Sun in Ollantaytambo with Javier explaining every question we asked him with great clarity. It was a great experience! We definitely recommend it!
Response from the operator: ¡Muchas gracias por compartir su experiencia y por recomendarnos! Nos alegra muchísimo saber que disfrutaron de cada momento del recorrido y que la organización fue fácil, puntual y amable desde el inicio. Nos encanta saber que Javier pudo acompañarlos con sus conocimientos y explicarles la historia de cada lugar con claridad, haciendo que la visita fuera aún más especial. También nos alegra que hayan disfrutado de la gastronomía y, especialmente, de la visita a Ollantaytambo. Compartiremos sus bonitas palabras con Javier. Para nosotros fue un placer ser parte de su viaje y esperamos tener la oportunidad de recibirlos nuevamente en Cusco y mostrarles muchos más lugares increíbles de nuestro Perú. 🇵🇪✨ ¡Muchas gracias por confiar en nosotros!

Amazon Guide for our trip of the life time!
Jason is a very knowledgeable, patient, and informative tour guide! My wife and I had a great time in the Cuzco and Machu Picchu area. I learned a lot about Inca history and culture from Jason's deep knowledge. He also always had a cool story to share from his personal life! All in all, I will definitely have Jason as my tour guide again — and you should too for your bucket-list trip!
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure to guide you and your wife through Cusco and Machu Picchu. I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed learning about Inca history and culture and that my stories helped make the experience even more memorable. Your kind words about my patience, knowledge, and enthusiasm mean a lot to me. Sharing the history, traditions, and stories of Peru with travelers is something I genuinely love doing. I would be delighted to be your guide again on your next trip to Peru! Thank you for trusting me with such an important bucket-list experience, and for recommending me to other travelers. 🇵🇪✨

An unforgettable experience in Machu Picchu thanks to Jeison
I had an incredible experience during my visit to Machu Picchu. Our guide, Jeison, was absolutely exceptional. From the very first moment, he was very kind, professional, and attentive, ensuring that the entire group was comfortable and well-informed. What stood out the most was his impressive knowledge of the history and culture of Machu Picchu. He explained every detail with passion and clarity, making the visit much more interesting and enriching. We learned a great deal thanks to him, and that knowledge was an extraordinary added value to the entire experience. Additionally, Jeison took care of all the coordination, instructions, and logistical aspects during the tour, making everything easy, smooth, and worry-free. Thanks to his organization and attention, we were able to fully enjoy this magical place. Without a doubt, I recommend this tour and especially Jeison as a guide. His professionalism, kindness, and deep knowledge made our visit to Machu Picchu unforgettable.

Compartiremos tus palabras con Jeison, quien seguramente estará muy feliz de saber cuánto valoraste su trabajo. ¡Gracias por confiar en nosotros y por recomendarnos!

Why this scores 51
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Full day tour in Machupicchu: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Full day tour in Machupicchu cost?
+
Prices start at $440 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 Full day tour in Machupicchu take?
+
Plan for about 20 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 Full day tour in Machupicchu worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 51 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 culture & history in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Full day tour in Machupicchu?
+
No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.
Is Full day tour in Machupicchu suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 1. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 20-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Full day tour in Machupicchu?
+
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 20-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Full day tour in Machupicchu 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.
