Memorable
Our tour guide Danny was extremely knowledgeable, very pleasant and we enjoyed thoroughly. Terri was the organizer and she was professional, gave us all the relevant information and followed up about the trip arrangements at every step. The only drawback was the accommodation provided at Aguas Calientes which was not good.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review. We appreciate your business. We are sorry to hear your accommodations were not as expected. The regular hotel we use in Aguas Calientes was sold out and we were referred to the one you stayed at. Again, our apologies and wish we would have known sooner, perhaps we could have changed your hotel. Thank you again for the review and information.

2-Day Tour: Sacred Valley / Pisac / Ollantaytambo / Machu Picchu
Juan was extremely knowledgeable as our guide for my wife and I and was able to fill in the few gaps I had based on my own research of the entire Andean civilizations. I probably enjoyed more just listening to Juan's info flowing from within & conversing with him about my numerous questions rather than staring at the sights!! Fortunately, my wife was taking a plethora of photos for sharing!! Thank you & two thumbs up!!
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We appreciate your business and the kind review. We know you have a choice in tour operators, and we are happy you selected us. I hope the rest of your time in Peru and Colombia was very nice.

An unforgettable experience with an incredible guide
I couldn't have dreamed of better. An exceptional site, with incredible weather conditions and a wonderful guide. Ruben is a very invested person, always listening, very professional and above all in love with his country which spreads very quickly. I fell in love with these wonderful landscapes thanks to him! Always good advice to have an authentic and unique experience! From the hotel, through the journey, continuing towards the choice of stops upon arriving at the different hikes I have nothing to complain about. It always adapts to you and knows how to slow down or stop when necessary. I recommend it 1000%!

Juan of Amazing Andean Adventures was amazing
My friend & I spent 4 days with Juan - a Cusco city tour and the surrounding archeological sites, Scared Valley and Machu Picchu. Juan was very knowledgeable, patient, and fun. We had a great time exploring Inca culture and he made sure we were comfortable. His restaurant recommendations were all great and I felt we were in good hands!
Response from the operator: Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I enjoyed spending the time with you both. We worked on your plans so long ago, it was nice to finally meet you and share the sites of Peru with you. Thank you for your business

Amazing trip with very knowledgeable and fun guide
Juan was a perfect guide for us. He knew the area and history very well, and he was very accommodating. He never dictated what we did; he just kept us informed of when we needed to be places at any specific time, and he was happy to accompany us to any places we wanted to go while at our destinations. He recommended perfect restaurants who were very welcoming and had delicious foods, and he seemed to know more about Machu Picchu and the area than many of the other guides. Our driver was also excellent, and knew where to park or wait to get us out of places before the crowds. We would definitely recommend Amazing Andean Adventures and Juan for anyone who wants to have the full experience of the area!
Response from the operator: My friends, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. Allowing our clients to explore on their own and spend time in the areas of interest to them is important to providing you with a memorable vacation. I thank you for your business and am happy to hear you enjoyed your time while with us on your Peruvian adventure. Come back and see us anytime.

Why this scores 49
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How does Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight Tour compare to similar tours in Cusco?
+
It ranks #7 of the 7 similar experiences we compared in Cusco, with an Outty Ranking of 49. At $735 it sits above the typical similar option ($308), so book it for what is included rather than price. Best for families and couples.
Who is Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight Tour best for?
+
It suits families and couples best, based on its 48-hour length, all-ages access and non-refundable terms.
Is Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight Tour good value?
+
It is a premium pick. It starts at $735, above the $308 typical for similar experiences in Cusco.
How much does Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $735 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 Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight Tour take?
+
Plan for about 48 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 Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 49 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable nightlife in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight Tour?
+
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 Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight 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 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight 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), Full-Day Rainbow Mountain Trek (Meals Included). 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 Machu Picchu and Sacred Valley Overnight Tour?
+
Included: Round trip train ticket on the Vistadome or Expedition train; 1 night in Machu Picchu town of Aguas Calientes at the El Mapi hotel or similar; Private transportation in all tours; Breakfast; and Entrance ticket to Machu Picchu. Not included: Entrance fees to Ollantaytambo & Pisaq ruins not included. Must be paid in cash at sites; Meals - except breakfast that is included with your hotel in Aguas Calientes; and Gratuities for Guide and Driver.

+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 290 listed pickup locations in and around Cusco. Be ready about 15 minutes before the start time. You can also enter a custom pickup address when booking.
