Avoid at all costs

Booked this through Viator and went for the 6 hour trip. We were supposed to be picked up in the main square at 8.30 which was changed to 8.40 on the morning by the guide. He showed at 08.55. We then had to walk to where we were originally (closer to hostel) going to meet the guide. Waited another 20 minutes. Then the bus came 3/4 full. We proceeded to a hotel where the bus was packed to full. We made a pointless stop at Tipon for a talk about how they cleared the bushes in 1907 at Machu Picchu this wasn't on the itinerary and a wasted stop. Then up to the Inca water works. This was good and interesting. We then left and made another pointless stop about Alpaca wool but more of a hard sell of the products. We then went on to Andahuaylillas, now this was the biggest con. Other tour groups went in to the church for 10 soles but this tour went up the street to a "museum, term used loosely" about corn on the cob and cocoa leaves. Nothing to do with the church at all as advertised. You could skip the museum and go in to the church yourself for 18 soles. Once back on the bus it was at this point we were told they would be stopping for lunch and he would take the orders and should be back in Cusco about 4.30 . We specifically booked the tour without the lunch and that was advertised to be back for 2.30. We made it clear this was not the tour we booked and wasn't happy with the useless stops, the lunch as we had plans at 3.30pm. The guide Marcus got us a taxi and paid the fair back to Cusco as lunch was supposed to be 30 minutes but they decided for an hour and this was at 3.30 pm in Costco at the edge. Didn't see the point of lunch at the end of the tour. Marcus was knowledgeable and a nice guy ( maybe part of the problem) as one Peruvian family didn't listen to him when it was time to get on the bus. They were always late taking pictures, buying stuff doing their own thing when it was time to move on. Even the driver was angry as kept using his horn and revving the bus to get them to hurry up. Of Marcus was firmer things would maybe have ran to plan. We were the only two English speakers on the tour and Marcus had good English and kept using informed sometimes felt less informed than the Spanish speakers. The day before we booked a tour with Get your Guide. Was far superior and would use them again, as the local company they used was excellent. The local company used by Viator for this trip best Peru travels wasn't very well organised. I will be lodging a compliant with Viator as this was not the trip we booked and we missed our other engagement at 3.30pm.

It was so nice, the guide...

It was so nice, the guide spoke English very well. But I thought there is no lunch and could get back to Cuzco around 3, but they had lunch time (the lunch was not included) and was like a scam. Fortunately there was another van that picked me up and I could go back to Cusco without having lunch.

Nice Introduction to Cusco City

This was a very good experience and a helpful trip. Got to see many places some even on the outskirts of Cusco and learnt a lot about the Incan civilization and people. The guide was very helpful knowledable and shared many things those I could not even find in guide books. On my following days as I walked around Cusco city and visited Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu these informatio were extremely helpful.

Tour Valle Sur Cusco: Typon, Pikillacta and Andahuaylillas: questions travelers ask

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

How much does Tour Valle Sur Cusco: Typon, Pikillacta and Andahuaylillas cost?

+

Prices start at $13 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 Tour Valle Sur Cusco: Typon, Pikillacta and Andahuaylillas take?

+

Plan for about 6 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 Tour Valle Sur Cusco: Typon, Pikillacta and Andahuaylillas worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 63 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 7 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Cusco, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

Can I cancel or reschedule Tour Valle Sur Cusco: Typon, Pikillacta and Andahuaylillas?

+

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 Tour Valle Sur Cusco: Typon, Pikillacta and Andahuaylillas suitable for kids and families?

+

The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 6-hour running time when deciding.

How far in advance should I book Tour Valle Sur Cusco: Typon, Pikillacta and Andahuaylillas?

+

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 6-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Tour Valle Sur Cusco: Typon, Pikillacta and Andahuaylillas 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, Excursion to Rainbow Mountain Full Day Optional Red Valley. 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.
