Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Fernando was professional, knowledgeable, entertaining and flexible. He checked in with us regularly to make sure the tour was to our liking, and was able to answer all of our random questions. "

"Fabricio was wonderful guide. We had a lot of fun together over 3 days . Highly recommend!"
"We did not have long in Cusco - only a couple of days - and chose Fabrizio to help us explore the city and its sights. He was born and lives here, so knows the City and has much experience as a guide. He was friendly and knowledgeable and his English was exceptional. He had a clear passion and understanding of the cityās pre-Columbian heritage and took us to all the key sites. He also told us much about the contemporary culture of the city and it people. We highly recommend him. "

"We had a great experience with Fernando. He is earnest and eager to ensure we got what we wanted out of the tour. We didnāt have any special requests in terms of what we wanted to see, and instead asked him to curate the tour as he saw fit. He did a great job and answered a ton of questions about Cuscoās history as well as local politics, day to day life, etc"
"Fernando Ć© stata unāottima guida che mi ha spiegato parecchie notizie storiche e curiositĆ su Cuzco. Una persona educata e gentile. Inoltre conosce molto bene lāItaliano. "
"A gentle but interesting walking tour of Custco. Noe took his time helping us acclimatise to the steep roads and altitude yet still giving us plenty of information and showing us some lovely sites. We didnāt choose to visit inside some of the sites and on reflection probably should have. "
"Bravissimo Fernando! Grazie per la tua preparazione e passione con cui ci hai fatto apprezzare la tua splendida cittĆ . Sei stato una guida preziosa e attenta."
"We've done 3 tours with Fabrizio - Sacred Valley, Cusco city tour and the 10 tastings of Cusco. We've had a great experience starting with the food tour as one of the first things we did in Peru. Fabrizio won't bring you to fancy restaurants and give you food no Peruvian would touch - he will instead give you the chance to try real local snacks, talk to you about the history and culture of his country and quickly turn into a local friend. Do not hesitate to ask him for a favor in accomodating your tour schedule, we found him to be very flexible and supportive with the specifics of our case. Furthermore, he also adjusted the tours to fit our wishes, resulting in the ability to see more than initially planned. We suggest that you book one tour with Fabrizio and take it from there - with all the tips and recommendations he could give you about Cusco. Ask a lot, be curious and connect! That's what we've done. "
"We had a wonderful time with Fabrizio. We were worried (but curious) about going beyond the tourist area and he made us feel comfortable and took us to some excellent food spots that we never would have been able to visit on our own. "
