  The magical trip of my life
I met Cusco Wonder travel through Facebook. Rubén called me and gave me the best explanations to clear up my doubts. He is very friendly and super reliable, all the reservations I made from Argentina were fulfilled. I dreamed of Machu Picchu, and this tourism agency made it come true and at the best price. Consider that I was traveling alone to an unknown country. They went to pick me up at the bus station, they gave me the bus and train tickets to get to Aguas Calientes. They accompanied me to get the ticket and to the accommodation. The next day we left with our guide towards the fabulous ruins. The explanation was brilliant and entertaining. At the height of that unique moment in the life of each of the passengers. I visited Puente del Inca and I was looking forward to returning to do the Inca Trail with them, which takes 4 days with everything included. I recommend them, they are the best. They took care of all the details so that I could fully enjoy it. Don't hesitate to hire them.

We recently visited Peru and I want to express the satisfaction with which we returned. Our guide Rubén Bernal Huallpa made sure that our stay was unforgettable. We were a small group so it made us as comfortable as possible. It should be noted that he is a great communicator and knowledgeable about the history and culture of Peru and transmits it with enthusiasm. We will not hesitate to return to continue discovering the wonders of Peru.
