Great service and memorable day hiking above 5000 meters to an unique view. Left at 4 am to beat the crowd. Reached the parking at 7:15am after 2 hour of paved road and about 1hr of winding single lane dirt road. Many alçapas herds on the way. . Hiked 2km (1.3 miles) with many short stops and we reached the top in 56 minutes (350 meters ascend). Wonderful views to enjoy pnce yiu recover your breath. There are options to hire horse and motorcycles on the spot.. ATV option must be booked in advance.

I want to say that our tour guido Riccardo was above and beyond. very professional and well knowledge. we had a great time and it was definitely a well taken tour. cheers jose prats

Richard was a terrific tour guide. We did this on the last day of our trip, and had already visited Michu Picchu a few days earlier, and toured the Temple of the Sun on our own, so it was great to round out those experiences with a guided tour of the other sites and museum. Richard picked us up from our hotel promptly and took us on a private tour. He answered all of our questions and some things we didn’t know to ask. The sites are spectacular although we were surprised that none of them seem to an active archeological dig site. We were repeatedly told that the walls are another 9 feet down under the earth that we cannot see, and there appeared to be no current plan to reclaim this part of the site. Seems like a missed opportunity for Peru, but we were very happy with this experience.

The most spiritual experience I had in Peru was at this mountain. The altitude brought me visions and I could feel the energy of this place so strongly. I resonated with the Incas and their beliefs and felt very connected. Our private tour was intimate and our guide was very knowledgeable. I will return to this place again.

Palcoyo Mountains is part of the Rainbow Mountains it a 3:30 hours drive from Cusco, but it is somewhat easier, marked trails, shorter, less crowded, and lower altitude. Our guide, driver, and hiking guide for this hike was Ricardo. We are still somewhat acclimating to the altitude so we are not the fastest hikers and he was patient with us and matched our slow pace. We didn’t feel rushed at any point during our hike. He kept asking us if we are okay and how we are feeling. He even lent us his walking sticks for each of during the hike and he was our translator when we interact with the locals to get some pictures with Alpacas and Llamas. As our driver going to and from the hike, we felt very safe too and his car is cleaned and well kemp. He arrived in our hotel on time and he was able to drop off us at our hotel on time as well. Overall it’s a fun experience but it’s not for everyone since it’s a high altitude hike it can be risky especially to those who have heart problems.

Website to purchase ticket is horrible. They show very little availability and high price when I purchased the ticket. It was a ticket where date change was allowed. Couple of days later, the price is almost 50% down (From $2600 to $1656). When I asked for refund as changes were allowed, it was denied. As a consumer you feel ripped off just in a couple of days. Date change is allowed for same price or higher but if price goes down it does give you refund. That too in a couple of days later. $1000 is a big difference.

Saúl our guide, was amazing, it even felt like we were in a tour with an old friend, he was very patient, polite and friendly

Had an amazing time going to Paracas and to see the Nazca Lines. We also stopped at an amazing lunch stop in Pisco. Saw amazing wild life and had great conversation about Peru.

We had a great day with Richard! He arrived with a smile and our tour of the Sacred Valley was beyond our expectations. This is highly recommended!!

My wife and I had an incredible day with Richard! He picked us up in time and we had a wonderful time touring many fabulous locations in the sacred valley!

This was one of many trips we planned with Richard. We took a chance with our first tour, and didn’t look back! So memorable!! In only wish could have stayed longer to experience this amazing area of Peru!

I have travelled the world watching football games in 50* countries and Richard made this a fun experience for my wife and I. The entry was seemless as was the exit (private parking = no bs) Highly recommended

Richard made this a trip if a lifetime!! Highly recommended. I just wish we had more time with him. So welcoming and attentive to our requests. Can’t miss

We have been in South America for a month and this is the best tour we have taken! Richard our host was helpful and considerate of our needs. I am not sure about the negative review i saw I this site, but it seems a little “misconstrued!” Pictures can only tell the words of our amazing journey!! I hope You enjoy them!! Highly recommended

Everything was great because we booked with Kaypi tours. From the very beginning Franco was wonderful answering questions about what to expect, wear, eat, flights. Excellent price for the trip; love the airfare included! Renzo was our wonderful guide. Knows the backstory of all the places, Peru in general and especially Machu Picchu. It was a great experience to stay with families; learning how they live, eat, and, amazingly climb up and down the steep paths to the villages. Fab photos, memories, and souvenirs! Best story: bulls on rooftops. Thank you Kaypi, Franco and trillions of kudos to Renzo!!!!!
