See Chinchero, Maras, Moray, Ollantaytambo, and Pisac in one long day with lunch, transport, and a small group.

“A very good tour to experience all of the places. Every place we have visited was very beautiful. Perfect to do in one day. The guide gave us very good information about every place we visited. They were 60 min late to pick us up (in the rain) and didn't let us know untill just before they arrived. Normally they would bring us back to the hostel but they dropped us off at the plaza de armas (not as promised).”

4.Scenic Sun Route to Puno with Buffet Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 214 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $45

Review the Cusco to Puno Sun Route, with Andean sights, buffet lunch, bus comfort, extra fees, and practical booking advice.

“We took this tour from Cusco to Puno yesterday, and while parts of it were fine, the overall experience was disappointing. The bus itself was clean and comfortable, but it was a very long day (about 11 hours on the road with limited time at each stop, usually around 30–40 minutes). Most of the site admissions weren’t included, which added another 53 soles per person for fairly brief visits. I didn’t know this when booking. Our guide was friendly and professional, but the commentary felt a bit rehearsed, and there was a lot of emphasis on promoting the company and encouraging souvenir purchases. The lunch was also a letdown. It…”

Review of the Humantay Lake day trip from Cusco, with breakfast, buffet lunch, transfers, hiking advice, costs, and practical tips.

“Excellent day out! Strongly recommend just be sure you get used to the altitude spending some time in Cusco first as it is only a short 6km walk but is fairly steep and quite hard work if you are not fit. Horses are available at cost but remember to take Soles”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 22 reviews · 10 hours (approx.) · from $99

Review of the Cusco to Puno sightseeing bus, with Inca ruins, Andahuaylillas church, buffet lunch, comfort, costs, and practical tips.

“The tour was nice and we went to 5 places on the way. However, it would have been better if we has just 1 language speaking guide in order to grasp better. Also some time was lost for local shopping stops. The church, the temple, the view point, lunch and museum were v.nice. It would have been great too if they had stopped at the Puma view point which was on the way to Puno too. But overall all was great and the buses were very comfortable.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 7 reviews · 10 hours · from $55

Review of the Puno to Cusco tourist bus with buffet lunch, Andahuaylillas, Raqchi, La Raya, Pukara, comfort, costs, and tips.

“Very disappointed by this bus service overall, not worth the money if you ask me. They show no care for their passengers and calling it a "VIP" service is a joke. We were traveling from Puno to Cusco. Here are my pros and cons: Pros: Decent lunch Drinks service with both cold drinks and tea in the bus Cons: They advertise their guide is English-speaking. This is somehow true, but at least in our case, the guide's (Alfredo's) English is very poor and tough to understand. Moreover, even in Spanish he doesn't speak clearly. They advertise their bus is air-conditioned. This is not true, they only have ventilation running and…”

15.From Cusco: Sacred Valley Tour with Buffet Lunch

★★★★★★★★★★4.2 · 7 reviews · 1 day · from $36

Review of the Cusco Sacred Valley tour with Pisac, Ollantaytambo, Chinchero, buffet lunch, practical tips, costs, and honest drawbacks.

“The pickup was according to the previous discussion. First you arrive Pisac town with an unnecessary stop to a jewellery shop where you can buy some stuff (of course if you like these things it might be interesting). After 45 mins. you will go to Pisac archeological site where you will spend 1 hour, however it was not enough (we would have appreciated more time there). Then next is Urubamba where you will have lunch, however the food was not delicious at all and you need to pay even for water. Then you will go to Ollantaytambo to the archeological site, which would have been amazing, but we arrived there…”
