We booked a private half-day tour of Chinchero and Ollantaytambo. We loved how Jisa worked with us to customize the trip we needed (one-way from Cusco to the rail station in Ollantaytambo). We especially loved our tour guide, Juan, whose sense of humor and English proficiency were both superior to other guides we’ve had in the area. Additionally, we appreciated his flexibility and his knowledge of the history, topography, industry, and culture of the area. Highly recommend!

Itinerary
Here you can admire the agricultural terraces, the colonial temple and witness the textile production process.
We will continue towards Moray, a fascinating place with circular agricultural experimentation terraces. From there, we will go to the Salineras de Maras, where you can appreciate the salt pools on stepped terraces and learn about the ancestral tradition of salt extraction. Once at the viewpoint, you will have 30 minutes to marvel at the mountain's stunning colors, ranging from shades of red to blue and green. Our guide will share interesting facts about the cultural importance of this site. The limited time at the viewpoint is due to altitude and health considerations, but it is enough to capture spectacular photos and experience the wonder of 7 Colors Mountain. Then, we will return to Cusipata to enjoy a lunch that will recharge your energy before embarking on the return trip to Cusco.
Next, we will explore the imposing Ollantaytambo Fortress, with its terraces, archaeological remains and impressive panoramic views. We will enjoy a delicious buffet lunch with typical dishes from the region in the town of Urubamba.
In this place we will enjoy a delicious lunch.
Finally, we will conclude the tour at the Pisac Archaeological Complex, where you can appreciate the Inca architecture, the agricultural terraces and enjoy the panoramic views of the valley.
Later we will return to the city of Cusco, ending our tour at approximately 7:00 pm.

Our guide, Mihai (might be spelling it wrong) was funny, informative, enthusiastic, and very kind. I accidentally booked the Spanish tour, but he was kind enough to give a special English translation just for me. His jokes were solid as well. In my opinion, the sights on this trip are underrated gems. Machu Picchu gets the most attention in Cusco, but Ollantaytumbo is a vast and impressive citadel that should get a lot more love. You will not regret this trip. A wonderful, memorable way to spend a day.
Absolutely amazing tour From the private transportation with Luis, which was able to get us in and out quickly from each major stop. While others waiting to board busses. Lunch in Urubambo was an amazing buffet in a beautiful location, Resto Muña. To top it all off, Johnny Walker was top notch excellent guide, extremely knowledgeable, kind, patient and caring. Each stop was amazing and learned so much about Incan culture/history. Honestly surprised by how 5 star this tour was. Phenomenal work Team JISA!
Our tour guide Jhonny and our driver Armando took us on a great adventure today. Armando safely took us to all of our destinations, while Jhonny was a fountain of information at each location we visited. My family and I were amazed and thankful for such a wonderful time on our tour. I highly recommend Jisa Adventure for travel tours in Cusco.
I’ve had several tour guides but none compare to Saul. It’s clearly he’s passionate about what he does in the way he covers thoughtful details about the tour sites. We covered a lot of ground in what felt like a short time because of how engaging it was. He’s an excellent steward of the culture and truly makes you feel like a friend.
Jorge was an amazing tour guide!! It started bright and early with a warm welcome from our driver and our tour guide Jorge! He made sure the group knew each other and made sure we were having fun! we got very knowledgeable information from this tour! Definitely recommend this tour and going on a tour with Jorge!
Our Sacred Valley Tour with guide Jorge Washington was simply fantastic! Jorge was incredibly accommodating and knowledgeable, making the trip an excellent experience from start to finish. We were amazed by the breathtaking sights and the rich history of the Sacred Valley. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cusco. Thank you, Jorge, for an unforgettable experience!
I came across JISA adventures through instagram and I was a little weary about reaching out but from the moment I reached out they were extremely attentive and answered all my questions. I booked all my excursions through them. Franco was our guide when we went to Machu Picchu and everything was well coordinated by them. I absolutely recommend them for any travel excursions you would like to do while in Peru.
Very good guide Russell, and a great experience. We learned a lot.
Overall it was a good experience; the places are interesting and incredible. I think communication for passenger pickup can be improved; the logistics. I think it takes too long to pick everyone up; and it is all a matter of communication. One of the positive points was the information and history about the places we visited; it was very interesting information that Rosa shared, and she took us to places where we learned about local crafts and activities.
Jisa, I couldn't have chosen a better agency!! The service from the guides at each destination, the service from the agency staff, the warmth of each driver. The condition of the cars, THE PUNCTUALITY "incredible," the selection of restaurants for breakfasts and lunches. I am super happy to have fulfilled my dream and that you accompanied me. Thank you!!
Super beautiful experience the guides very well trained! I cannot complain about their service!
Russel is an excellent guide and host.
Incredible experience. The guide Rousell was super friendly, explained everything very well, and made us enjoy the tour even more. Highly recommended.
The tour was very complete, the guide Victor is a star! I recommend it 100%.
We took the trip to the Sacred Valley with the guide Victor, who gave us an excellent tour and explanation of the site. Highly recommended.
I liked the places visited quite a bit; with the explanation and stories told by the guide, the experience becomes much more complete and pleasant. The only thing I would like is to be able to visit each place in more depth, but it is understood that due to time it is not possible.
My experience in Cusco and the Sacred Valley was excellent. From the moment we were picked up at the hotel, the guides were very attentive, kind, and professional. They were always listening to us and concerned about our well-being throughout the visit. We had a wonderful day and will keep a very fond memory of this experience. I highly recommend this excursion! Thanks to the whole team for their attention and professionalism. 🇵🇪✨
Excellent service, a personalized treatment from Samantha at JIsa Adventure.

Excellent Travel Agency, 100% recommended, our machupichu(Elvis) guide was very friendly and took beautiful photos , our 7-color mountain guide (Sandro), was very attentive and dedicated to the tours.
A great day where we learned too much about the Inca culture, the tour was amazing, and we were taken to many different archaeological sites. Thanks to our guide Victor and Don Armando for an excellent experience. Overall all the trip coordinated by Jisa was great! Recommended.
Very good experience with the agency from the quote of the tours, the organization according to the days we would be in Cusco and the execution of them. The three tours touched us with Sandro, very good guide, attentive and always willing to answer the questions. They certainly made our trip to Cusco a lot easier.
Good experience with the guide, Victor was very friendly and responsible, it is noteworthy the explanations in each of the sites visited, was not only visit the place but also know its history.
I found the Inca culture interesting, we travelled many places, very nice explanation Victor André, greetings from Mexico
Very good tour, from its beginning without waste, much cultural knowledge thanks to our guide Sandro who made everything an excellent experience!
Excellent Service by the guide Victor all very well, great knowledge about culture eh history and was always very attentive I help make this experience unique, special and unforgettable
Everything was great, from when they passed us at the hotel to the return. The guide Victor André was the guide and explained everything very practical and was great... Thank you!!!
Thank you Jisa for giving us a nice experience in Peru. We had very friendly guides and attentive to any request. We are very happy with our trip because everything that was in the itinerary was realized, also we found very organized and punctual. Gracias Jisa. Very well located hotels, very beautiful buffet restaurants and very rich food.
Amazing experience, Jhonny our guide was always attentive and concerned for the group, explained us in detail at every place we visited!
A very complete and super recommended Tour, all the time they are watching the group, especially because of altitude sickness. I recommend Jhonny as a guide, you rating the knowledge he has.
Fully recommended to take the tour with Johnny. My husband and I really enjoyed the experience. We met and learned a lot.
Sandro was our guide is an amazing person and super friendly, otherwise super good, of the best experiences one can live. Recommended
Guide Jhonny super well! He knows a lot and explained everything perfectly. Recommended to go with him! Do not hesitate to live the experience with Jisa Adventures
The tour was amazing. Our guide, Jhonny, was attentive to us all day, and his explanations were very complete and enriching. He was undoubtedly one of the best guides we had during our stay there. The driver Luis was also very good and did his best to get us to all the places we needed to visit in the Sacred Valley. Jisa Adventure handled the logistics impeccably, and we were extremely pleased with the service and organization. I highly recommend you book with this travel agency.
Everything we did was beautiful, Jhony was a very nice man who responded and explained the tour, totally recommendable. We came from Chile and we thought everything was wonderful. Thank you.
A very good experience, Juanito is an incredible walker, very patient and has excellent command of information. Despite the short time, the experience is enjoyable. One suggestion would be to spend less time in shopping places since they take time away from the tour.
All great, very good experience, to be able to return with the family, also to recommend to other people, very good guide
All right with our guide. He had Patience and was funny at the same time to be aware of the information he gave us.
The truth was a very complete experience and where the guide Victor always enriched the experience either culturally or dynamically.
Very well guides Mr. Victor with a lot of knowledge about culture, transmits his knowledge to foreigners A person who loves what he does
