"Fernando was a wonderful guide for our group of 4 in Cusco. He shared history and local knowledge and tips of places to visit. He was on time and communication was very straightforward. Thank you Fernando for showing us around your beautiful city."

The best way to discover Cusco
"We are a Dutch family of five and had a wonderful city tour with Fabrizio. It felt like exploring Cusco with a local friend. He took us to places we would never have discovered on our own and shared fascinating stories and insights. He adapted perfectly to our pace, answered all our questions, and spoke excellent English. We highly recommend both this tour and Fabrizio!"
"Noe was knowledgeable and patient. Went at a good pace. Good English and extremely helpful. It's a great way to get orientated on Day 1 or 2 in Cusco. Let Noe show you around. "

Fabrizio is fantastic
"I am a tour guide myself, and I always choose Fabrizio for my Cusco groups. He is a super knowledgeable, good natured, wonderful human. "
"Fabrizio was an amazing guide for our walking tour on our first full day in Cusco. He took it slow as we were acclimating to the altitude but also made sure we saw everything we wanted to.
He was also entertaining enough for our 12 year son and gave a great lunch recommendation for the best ceviche we've ever had.
If you're traveling to Cusco he is the guide for you. "
"Harry hat uns durch ganz Cusco geführt mit einer speziellen privaten Note. Wir konnten alle Fragen stellen. Er hat immer mit viel Geduld und ausführlich geantwortet.
Es war ein wundervoller erfüllter Tag mit Harry in Cusco."
"Danny needed to fill in for Fernando at the last minute. He was well educated, spoke English well and was fun to be with. "
