Extremely well guided - the camelids were cute - there were local handicrafts on sale - Pisac was unique - lunch was in a wonderful setting - the temple at Ollantaytambo was worth the climb. This tour shouldn't be missed whilst in the area.

Miscommunication between the office and the guide led to a needless wait of thirty minutes at 3 a.m. Apart from that, this was a reliable means to get to the airport in the wee hours of the morning.
