Sacred Valley of the Incas

The Sacred Valley was the agricultural food bowl of the Inca, a fertile plain perfect for growing the Inca staples, maize and potatoes. At the heart of the valley is the ancient city of Cusco, surrounded by remote Quechua villages and the crumbling ...

Very pleasant tour to the sacred valley with a guide that was informative and helpful when asked questions. I recommend if you are short on time and want to do a one day visit to the sacred valley.

This may be the best tour I have ever taken. Isaac (the driver) and Holger (the guide) were exceptional. We got to see the backside of the villages and towns of Sacred Valley, had lunch served by a Peruvian woman named Amelia, who met us several blocks, maybe a tenth of a mile down the narrow back alley road workers had torn up (throwing the rubble into the middle of the road) and who (Amelia) helped Isaac remove the bolders so we could have lunch in a grotto behind her house. The lunch was superb. Avocado salad, Quinoa Vegetable soup, and chicken and rice.
All of this and Sacred Valley, too. What more could one ask?.

Fantastic day, loved everything about it. Guide Valery remained calm and informative through a long day with a diverse group of people. The included lunch was very good and in a lovely restaurant. Would say this trip is a must do.

This was a great trip and value. Tour guide (Jose) was really knowledgeable and fun. Lunch was fantastic at a beautiful hotel. Didn't realize there was the option to stay at this hotel overnight before Machu Picchu, may have considered this option if I had known. Ollantaytambo was amazing.

The tour was good and I was picked up on time. Overall I was quite satisfied, lunch was quite nice and enjoyable. Would recommend this trip.
One draw back, not enough time in Ollantaytambo. I suggest to scale back one of other sites in favor Ollantaytambo. Just to go up and down in the allotted time frame, was not enough.
Being picked up and taken everywhere and lunch. Cost was perfect.

It seems there was more time spent driving than at the sites themselves. I would have preferred to have gotten an earlier start and spend more time at the sites rather be rushed. Then at the end, we did more driving, dropping people off at various hotels in Ollyentantambo area before returning back to Cusco. We were rushed at the Ollyantantambo site and only spend 1 hr there. At the end we made a brief stop at Chincero when it was getting dark out so we only stayed a few minutes. The tour guide was knowledgeable. He was very good at answering questions. Lunch was very good and plentiful.

We spent too much time at Pisac Market. Would have liked to visit archeological sites in the valley. Dinner meal was very nice. Really enjoyed Ollantaytambo ruins. Could have spent more time here. Our group was large and it was hard to hear the tour guide, especially hard to understand in the bus.

When we contacted the tour company they told us that we were not signed up for this tour. I had my printed confirmation with the amount I paid and provided it to them. They still said that I would have to pay more if I wanted this tour because they had different information from you (Viator). They were unwilling to contact Viator to confirm and this caused much frustration for us.
Additionally, the tour was supposed to include several ruins, including Pisac. When we got to Pisac, we were taken to the market and given an hour to shop - the market contained nothing but trinkets and junk. We did not go the the ruins at Pisac. Other travelers told us of their trip to Pisac and the beautiful Inca ruins they visited.
This trip was very expensive and incredibly disappointing.

On the pisac market it is possible not to come around, there is nothing to do, only cheap iinekachestvenny Chinese goods. Secred valley in general avoided. Nemplokhy Mixture cafe dinner. Convenient bus. Excursion to ruins can be combined easily with excursion in Makchu Pikchu, you won't pass excess kilometers on mountain roads.
