Things to do in Urubamba

trip was amazing, Juan was an amazing tour guide, had excellent knowledge of macchu Picchu and some great secret photo spots, the itinerary was also well thought out and gave us flexibility to choose which paths we hiked thanks to Jose.

The merchant was very sincere and, after being unable to reach me via WhatsApp, personally came to the hotel to pick me up.

If I could give 10 stars, I would. My wife and I took the private tour with Wayra as our guide and he was phenomenal. There was so much to learn at every single stop and he answered our every question knowledgeably and was able to give us a lot of detail on the history of what we were seeing as well as little insights to growing up in the area which was very valuable to learn. It ended up being a very enriching day... Some highlights were getting to see the salt mines and sample choclates at a family home as well learning the process of preparing freshly sheared wool to be loomed into garments. I cannot recommend this tour enough. Again, Wayra was incredible and you will be in such good hands with him as your guide.

The trip joined different group tours every day. Tour guides used both Spanish and English. The package is basic that covers most things you need. But you can always ask the agent for upgrade. The agent is as helpful as a babysitter. Machupichu is magnificent. We ended up went for Circuit 3 instead of Circuit 2 they promised. We also hired a private guide, which is good to know the site in depth.

If you fail to book tickets in advance on the official Machu Picchu website, booking them here is not a bad alternative. The popular routes are almost always booked up early. After placing an order, the supplier will proactively contact you with a few options to choose from, and they will only issue the ticket after confirmation, allowing us to arrange the related itineraries based on the acquired tickets.
