I had just landed and was on my own and this Cusco tour with Viajes Pacifico was a perfect way to start out my trip and get the lay of the land. The guides explanation of Cusco's history was wonderful and the sites even more so! Beautiful place and fabulous tour guide!!!!!

Most of this tour was spent bumping around in Cusco traffic. We went to another hotel on the other side of town presumably to pick up other passengers - they were presumably no shows but there was no explanation. After a brief tour of the markets we navigated back to the same hotel to pick up a couple who by now were presumably an hour late in a 3 hour tour - again no explanations or apologies or introductions. More traffic - a few stops and ended up back within 50 meters of our hotel to start the walking component. At no stage did the guide outline the itinerary or explain what was going on. While he gave quite interesting commentary when we did stop at various sights it was as if he was reciting by rote and at speed presumably to make up for lost time -he gave the impression he was clearly bored. Some of the views expressed on the inter-mixture of Catholicism and local beliefs were very interesting but somewhat dogmatic. Overall one of the worst of many city tours we have done world wide. Avoid.

Incredible tour. it was the the perfect tour after arriving two hours prior to the tour. The sites we visited were well chosen to give a great view and cultural knowledge of Cusco. Our guide had a tremendous amount of knowledge and provided insightful cultural and historical context at all the sites we visited. A must tour to select for your first day.

Very good tour! Kind of short, was probably expecting a little more churches, monasteries etc.. but the guide was very knowledgable.

The tour was scheduled to go 4 hours but we were done after 2.5 hours. The guide seemed rushed to get it over with. But great stops that focused on the must sees of Cusco.

Good tour with a good overview of the incan-spanish buildings. visiting the markets was fun too. unfortunately one of the sights were closed on account of the holidays and we could not see them.

The Cusco tour was a great introduction to the city. Our guide, antionette, was very knowledgeable and we enjoyed the market and monastery tour very much. The only thing I would change is that it was difficult at times to understand the heavy difference in dialect. We wished we had read more about Inca history before our trip. All in all, we were happy we had this overview of Cusco before we tackled Manchu Picchu.

The overall tour was very good, the Cathedral was incredible, never seen anything like this one. Only thing it was hard to fully understand the guides English unless you were up close all the time.

This was a good, quick primer for our first day in Cusco. We pretty much covered most of the highlights of the city that one could expect to in a half-day which is great because you don't want to take on too much without first getting acclimated to the altitude!. The price is reasonable, so I'd highly recommend doing this tour!

This tour was amazing!
Review by: Amanda S, June 2017
Our tour was supposed to be from 2-6:00pm, but the tour company was over a half an hour late picking us up from our hotel and they ended the tour before 5:30pm. For the amount of money we paid for this tour, we thought we were going to be able to see more of the city than we did. The tour guide was friendly, spoke English well and was very knowledgeable about the history of Cusco. She was a great story teller with so any interesting facts about each place we visited. The entrance fees/tickets were included with the price of this tour. We enjoyed the tour and found it very beneficial, interesting and informative, but we just with the entire 4 hours were taken advantage of.
