After the collection worked after a short contact with the provider, we had a great day. Very exciting and enough time to see the individual sights. Great guide and professional driver.

The salt mines & The Moray Terraces are a must see while in Cusco. They are both major engineering feats and they're incredible to witness!

Just before the beginning the pick-up was late by an hour. But afterwards everything went smoothly. Better to know a bit Spanish, as much more Spanish speaking travelers in the tour, so tour guide speaks much more in Spanish :)
