MoniGAbad2024-05-10Excellent tour and amazing experience! Overall this was an excellent tour and amazing experience! The operation is well organized and each staff member took very good care of us at each point along the way of the day trip. Our Machu Picchu guide Roy was warm and personable! He was also very knowledgeable and passionate about the historical and cultural significance of Machu Picchu. As he guided us through various areas of the site, we also had a little time to snap pictures and take in the beauty around us. Roy even showed us how to get really unique and spectacular shots! Seeing Machu Picchu was the highlight of our trip to Cusco!
