Great tour of Cusco and Machu Picchu
I would highly recommend this tour and travel agency. Jhordy and Rayza were a pleasure to deal with and were so helpful and responsive in organizing the tour. Our guides Justino and Victor were great and super knowledgeable. You come to feel as if you are being given a tour by friends rather than a tour guide. Our drivers Jorge and Martin were very friendly and helpful. All of them helped to make this trip a wonderful experience. I will definitely be looking forward to working with them again for my future trips.

Dont think twice about booking this amazing tour
What can I say - if you are nervous and not sure what to do in Perú do not look any further than Fly Cusco. We had a wonderful 6 days in Lima and Cusco with Jhordy and his team. Victor was our guide for Cusco and the Sacred Valley and Jorge was our driver - we had a fantastic time and really appreciate the time and personal approach this team has. We asked for a change to the itinerary on the day to include something of specific interest to us and that was no problem for Victor and Jorge who were more than happy to include this in our schedule. We had a long delay in our train journey to Machu Picchu which was out of the control of Jhordy but he kept in close contact with us and organised our tour guide to meet us much later than originally scheduled. Yvonney was there with a big smile even though this was late and we all had a very early morning the next day and she escorted us to our hotel and got us checked in and explained the process for the next day. She then conducted a magnificent tour of Machu Picchu and adjusted it as needed for our adjustment to the altitude. She also made sure we got the best photo spots and took so many photos that she transferred to us at the end of the tour. Patricia was also excellent in Lima and gave us a very good overview with a half day tour. If you would like a trip that you don’t have to worry about transfers, guided tours and tickets etc but still like to have a bit of freedom to explore on your own and do your own thing once the tours are finished then this is the tour for you. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this tour to all our family and friends in the secure knowledge they would be looked after like family but not in a suffocating way. Thanks again to Jhordy for his amazing organisation and his team for their dedication in ensuring we had the most fantastic time in Peru.

Special 5-Day Machu Picchu and Highlights of Cusco: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Cusco.
How much does Special 5-Day Machu Picchu and Highlights of Cusco cost?
+
Prices start at $480 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 Special 5-Day Machu Picchu and Highlights of Cusco take?
+
Plan for about 120 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 Special 5-Day Machu Picchu and Highlights of Cusco 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 3 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Special 5-Day Machu Picchu and Highlights of 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 Special 5-Day Machu Picchu and Highlights of Cusco suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 120-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Special 5-Day Machu Picchu and Highlights of Cusco?
+
Around 1 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 120-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Special 5-Day Machu Picchu and Highlights of 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, 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.
