What people love about Peru Tours from Cusco
If you can go to Peru GO! I had an awesome guide and driver while I visited Cusco, Scared Valley, Machu Picchu and Pisaq. I’m a solo woman traveler and always felt safe during my visit. Carlos was very knowledgeable and a great person. When heading to Puno, I was on a bus tour. I guess I was really spoiled by having a private tour that the bus tour was ok. It was rushed and I didn’t get much out of it. Once I was in Puno, I had a great hotel over looking Lake Titicaca. The tour guide to Uros and Taquile island was really good and learned a lot from him. I had extra time before my flight and Inkayni Tours was able to get me a tour last minute to the Stargate. The tour guide and driver were such great people and knowledgeable and was a great way to end my trip!!!
