Unforgettable experiance for our family

We’re a family of five with kids ages 18, 15, and 11. Fabrizio was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and spoke excellent English. He even took us slightly off the beaten path, which we really enjoyed. Along the way, he introduced us to a traditional Peruvian game called Sapa. We got to play it while waiting for our lunch at a very cool outdoor restaurant. The whole experience was more than we could’ve hoped for.

AMAZING!!!

HE IS THE BEST TOUR GUIDE IN CUSCO and ONE OF OUR FAVORITE GUIDES OF ALL OUR TRAVELS!! We had the opportunity to spend 2 AMAZING days with Fabrizio. We signed up for the 3 bites and a drink Cusco and 7 hr Sacred Valley tour. The bite and drinks evening was the best tastes we had in Cusco. We went back to the restaurants he took us too because they were so good. Time flies by when talking with Fabrizio. His insight and and understanding of Cusco and the INCA history/culture was extensive. It felt like we had a college professor with us for those 2 days. WE HIGHLY WOULD RECOMMEND SIGNING UP for a personal tour of Cusco and the local region/Sacred Valley. Fabrizio will not disappoint and exceed your expectations. Ciao - Kevin and Jack

A memorable day

Fabrizio was an exceptional guide who made our day in Cusco and Sacred Valley truly unforgettable. From the very start, he was punctual and professional, arriving right on time with a comfortable car that made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. We felt completely safe and at ease with him throughout the day, which is so important when traveling as a family. One of the highlights of our trip was visiting Saqsayhuamán, a site I had been eagerly looking forward to. Fabrizio made the experience even more special by sharing fascinating insights about the site, bringing the history and culture of the Incas to life in a way that was both engaging and easy to understand. He adapted the pace of the day to our needs, ensuring we never felt rushed while still making the most of our time. What stood out most was how Fabrizio tailored the itinerary to perfectly match our family’s interests and preferences. The sites we visited were absolutely stunning, and it was clear he had thoughtfully planned the day with our wishes in mind. His ability to balance professionalism with a friendly and approachable demeanor created a truly personalized experience that we will cherish. Choosing a private guide like Fabrizio made all the difference. The privacy and personal attention allowed us to explore comfortably at our own pace, ask as many questions as we wanted, and fully immerse ourselves in the beauty of Cusco and its surroundings. It was clear that Fabrizio genuinely cared about ensuring we had an amazing experience, and we couldn’t have been more satisfied. I highly recommend Fabrizio to anyone looking for a private guide who is knowledgeable, attentive, and truly dedicated to creating a memorable and tailored experience. He exceeded our expectations in every way, and we’re so grateful for the incredible day he helped us create!

We had an amazing experience with Melisa!

Melisa’s many years as a guide is obvious in her knowledge and understanding of the Incans, their way of life, belief systems, etc. Not only that, but she knew how to plan the day so that we avoided the crowds of tourists visiting the sites! We also found her to be a very kind person-someone very easy to spend the entire day with. In addition, she went above and beyond to help us with some plans we had for later in the week that had nothing to do with her! She really cares and helps people have a good experience in the Sacred Valley. We’ve already sent some friends her way, and will let everyone we know know about her!
