(': Las fotos, muy bonitas a detalle ! 😌Publicado en Google Wojciech KolodziejczykTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. I highly recommend Buho Tours! From the moment I met Daniel at the Buho Tours office, I knew I could trust him. He organized a personalized tour for our family of four, and everything was perfectly planned and exactly as agreed. The price was fair and reasonable. What really stood out was the quality of the equipment. The bikes, helmets, and gloves were all in excellent condition and of very high quality. We felt safe throughout the entire trip. I highly recommend this company to anyone visiting the Cusco region who wants to have an unforgettable adventure. The tour was absolutely amazing! Wojtek and family from PolandPublicado en Google Shomita MandalTrustindex verifica que la fuente original de la reseña sea Google. Daniel was extremely helpful and helping us arrange a last-minute biking trip in the sacred Valley where we were staying. The trail was fun but just a warning it is bumpy. My boys were looking for something a little bit harder, and at one point he gave us the option and since I haven’t biked in a long time we took, the slightly easier route, but more difficult routes are available. The views were amazing and the other Daniel who was our guide was very knowledgeable and extremely nice.
