Pisaq Inca City and Sacred Valley Tour
I had an amazing tour to the Pisaq Inca City and the Pisaq new collonical city, organised by Alpaca Expeditions. I booked a solo private tour for 8 days. This is the first tour after I arrived last night in Ollantaytambo. The driver Michael picked me up this morning at 7 am. With him was my guide Lucio Vargas. Together we drove along the Sacred Valley through Urubamba, to the Pisaq ancient Inca city. The driver left us at the top entrance and collected us from the bottom entrace about 2.5 hours later. The guide walked along with me, slowly, at my pace, and showed me the entire city. He explained all the history, archeological, architectural features, as long as what various plants there were and how they were used, and the animals of the Inca. I loved the tour. It has stairs clearly set up so it is safe to go, and at your own pace it is great. The height was 3550, but did not have breathing issues. We then came down and visited the collonian new city of Pisaq with its market of artisanal souveniers. Then we drove further to Urubamba, where we ate at a great all you can eat buffet Don Angel. We then came back to Ollantaytambo, from where I take the train to Aguas Calientes, so I can see Machu Picchu the next day. In the following days I also do other tours with Alpaca Expeditios to see other places along the Sacred Valley. Overall, a great experience and I recommend the company, Michael and Lucio!
Thank you for such a memorable experience ❤️
Victor and Ingra were amazing and we had such a fantastic time on the hikes. The energy was spectacular and they did an exceptional job in telling the history each time we stopped. I'm so grateful for this experience and felt lucky to have such incredible guides!
Our amazing time in Machu Picchu
Our tour guide was called Luis and he is amazing! He took us lots of photos, have lots of facts and had a great sense of humour. The experience was great because there was extraordinary panoramic views and our guide was very patient, caring and was thoughtful of which spots to go to. The length of the visit was perfect to have a thorough exploration and have lots of fun while the crowd size was bearable and comfortable. This tour is beast for families and photographers and although it was expensive, it is absolutely worth a visit!
Choose Alpaca!
This trip was amazing! It was so well organized, so informative, and we had the pleasure of having more than one awesome tour guide. Saul Palma was our main guide for the tour--very personable, flexible, and helpful. Not only did he give us a fun and interesting tour of all the stops, but he was quick to carry my mom's bag for her or arrange for us to meet up with my brother's group, who were on a different tour at the same time. Once we met up with my brother's tour, one of their guides (Felix) helped my 83-year-old mom up and down every stair on circuit one. We were then handed over to Ishmael who gave us great information about Machu Picchu, and got us in the front of a loooooong bus line with a fourth guide. We might have missed our return train if they had not done that. Loved the alpaca farm (didn't get the name of the super bubbly guide there). The only down side--there was much more uphill walking and stairs than my mom and I anticipated. (I guess the same could be said of all of Peru.) Still, they helped us when we wanted to tackle it and gave us meeting point options when we didn't. I highly recommend this tour group--don't hesitate to book with them!
2-Day Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu Guided Tour from Cusco
My experience with Alpaca Expeditions was absolutely amazing. My friends & I did the 2-Day Sacred Valley & Machu Picchu tour from Cusco and I would absolutely recommend this to anyone. Our guide Ronny was awesome! From communications leading to our excursion, to giving us knowledgeable information at all the sites along the way, he went above and beyond in making sure my friends & I all had a great time. It was great having a guide who was from Cusco! The food included was delicious and our hotel stay in Aguascalientes was beautiful as well. Thank you Ronny!
