Great 4.0
We had a great stay at Motto by Hilton Cusco. The hotel’s location is excellent—it’s conveniently situated close to many of Cusco’s main attractions, restaurants, and shops, making it easy to explore the city on foot. The room was comfortable, clean, and well-maintained, and the staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. Overall, it’s a great choice for travelers looking for a modern, well-located hotel in Cusco. We would gladly stay here again.

Hotel location: I liked the hotel's location, and the tour agencies I used were familiar with it. It was difficult to open the room because the door lock wasn't working very well.

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.

Highly recommended cultural tour in Cusco. It’s good value for money, and the tour guide was excellent—very knowledgeable and gave detailed explanations at every stop, especially about Inca history and culture. Everything was well explained and easy to understand. After the trip, I became even more interested in learning about Cusco. Definitely a worthwhile experience.

one of my favourite part of this trip in Peru. The tour was organised and waking up early was all worth it. We arrived in Vinicunca Mountain earIy which means less crowd. ATV ride was fun too. On top of that, I was surprised thay the tour included buffet breakfast and lunch. Money we'll spent on this trip.

Fantastic 5.0
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.

It was a great trip. The tour guide helped us with booking the motorbike to the rainbow mountain, we didn’t need to walk much! I love that we can take good pictures without suffering😂 導遊:very nice and helpful 風景:best weather

What to know before visiting Cusco

Quick snapshot of Cusco and what to expect

Cusco’s Klook bookings are dominated by Tours and cultural experiences, and demand follows a clear seasonal pulse through the year. Activity bookings build toward a strong peak in September and dip around March and December, so the city alternates between busy months and much quieter stretches.

When to visit and how prices move

Klook data shows the busiest month is September, while March and December register among the quietest. Prices move independently of demand in several months: the priciest month on record is March (according to Klook booking data, typically), while October tends to be the cheapest month for bookings on Klook. For lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for October or other quieter months; for the peak-season atmosphere and highest activity levels, visit in September when demand is strongest.

Tips for travellers from the United States

Most travellers from the United States book a few weeks in advance: typical bookings on Klook come in at around 29 days, with many last-minute bookings up to about 9 days before an activity. If your trip is within a month, you can still be flexible and find options, but for travel in busy September consider locking in key tours a few weeks ahead. Use Klook to compare Tours and cultural experiences and secure the time slots you want without overplanning.
