A++ Tour - Jose was a great guide and extremely knowledgeable about the city he grew up in. It is immediately apparent that he loves mastering the history and nuances of the area. Richard, the driver was also very personable and a safe driver. The tour was thorough and efficient. I highly recommend booking this tour.

Great tour in Cusco - Jose Tito was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable and added some jokes. Speaks excellent english. This is about a 3hr tour so make sure to plan other activities in the afternoon.

Excellent visit to 4 historical sites around Cusco - Great experience learning about the great achievements of the Incas in the Cusco area. The guide Jose provided deep knowledge of the sites and as a life Cusco resident also talked about the history of the city. Made a bonus stop at a church to take nice panorama photos of Cusco. Also good to get out of the center historical area and see a bit more of the city. In particular, any Cusco visitor should really go to Sacsayhuaman.

An unexpected half day - This tour was unexpectedly good! Our tour guide was very knowledgeable about the Inca ruins above the city of Cuzco. I signed up for this because we had an extra day and I am so glad I did.
