Excellent Private Guide in Cusco

We had a terrific experience with our private Cusco sightseeing guide Henre. He was professional, knowledgeable, friendly, and very accommodating to our interests throughout the tour. His English was excellent, and he did a great job explaining the history and culture of Cusco in an engaging way. He also offered to take plenty of photos of us and suggested some excellent locations for pictures along the way. It was clear that he knows Cusco very well and is experienced at what he does. The tour felt personal and well tailored to us, and we would definitely recommend him to others looking for a knowledgeable and personable private guide in Cusco.

Multi museum ticket Biap Boleto

The Temple Religioso Arzobispal was well worth the visit even though it only took half an hour to see all there was.The lady on the entrance really helped us by showing us the cheap multi visit option with the Cathedral and the Sagrada Família to be used within a month.I think her name was Irena It was our first visit to Cusco and we weren’t disappointed.The Biap Boleto was great alum for money at only 50Sol

Odor of pee

Amazing city with a lot of history, it is to come 15 days, the only thing I did not like is the smell of constant pee, and see people pissing as if nothing happened.
