Great private tour

We booked a private half-day tour of Chinchero and Ollantaytambo. We loved how Jisa worked with us to customize the trip we needed (one-way from Cusco to the rail station in Ollantaytambo). We especially loved our tour guide, Juan, whose sense of humor and English proficiency were both superior to other guides we’ve had in the area. Additionally, we appreciated his flexibility and his knowledge of the history, topography, industry, and culture of the area. Highly recommend!

Response from the operator: Thank you very much for sharing your experience with us! We are delighted to know that the customized tour met your expectations and that you enjoyed your visit to Chinchero and Ollantaytambo. Creating flexible experiences tailored to each traveler’s needs is something we truly value. We are especially pleased to hear your kind words about Juan, and we will be sure to share your comments with him. Thank you for trusting Jisa Adventure. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable experience in Peru!

You can’t miss this one.

Our guide, Mihai (might be spelling it wrong) was funny, informative, enthusiastic, and very kind. I accidentally booked the Spanish tour, but he was kind enough to give a special English translation just for me. His jokes were solid as well. In my opinion, the sights on this trip are underrated gems. Machu Picchu gets the most attention in Cusco, but Ollantaytumbo is a vast and impressive citadel that should get a lot more love. You will not regret this trip. A wonderful, memorable way to spend a day.

Spectacular from start to end, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Absolutely amazing tour From the private transportation with Luis, which was able to get us in and out quickly from each major stop. While others waiting to board busses. Lunch in Urubambo was an amazing buffet in a beautiful location, Resto Muña. To top it all off, Johnny Walker was top notch excellent guide, extremely knowledgeable, kind, patient and caring. Each stop was amazing and learned so much about Incan culture/history. Honestly surprised by how 5 star this tour was. Phenomenal work Team JISA!

Response from the operator: Thank you so much for such an incredible review! ⭐ We’re thrilled to hear that your experience was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Luis’s efficient private transportation, helping you move in and out of each stop with ease, is exactly the smooth service we aim to provide. And we’re delighted that you enjoyed the beautiful buffet lunch at Resto Muña in Urubamba — it’s one of our favorite places too! A very special thank-you for your kind words about Johnny Walker. His deep knowledge, kindness, patience, and genuine care truly elevate every experience, and we’re so glad he made each stop memorable while sharing the richness of Incan culture and history. Hearing that the tour exceeded your expectations and felt like a true 5-star experience means the world to us. Phenomenal guests like you make our work even more meaningful. Thank you again — we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable adventure with Team JISA! 🇵🇪✨ — Jisa Adventure Team

Guided Tour in The Sacred Valley of the Incas Cusco: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Guided Tour in The Sacred Valley of the Incas Cusco cost?

+

Prices start at $100 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 Guided Tour in The Sacred Valley of the Incas Cusco take?

+

Plan for about 12 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 Guided Tour in The Sacred Valley of the Incas Cusco worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 75 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 141 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 Guided Tour in The Sacred Valley of the Incas Cusco?

+

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 Guided Tour in The Sacred Valley of the Incas Cusco 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 12-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Guided Tour in The Sacred Valley of the Incas Cusco?

+

Around 49 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 12-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Guided Tour in The Sacred Valley of the Incas Cusco 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.
