About Choquequirao

Choquequirao is well known as a destination for trekking but cannot be reached by road or train. The trek takes you down the beautiful canyon of the Apurímac River and reaches the site of Choquequirao. This site of the ‘cradle of gold’ is also known as the ‘sister of Machu Picchu’ because of its similarity in function and architecture.

This site contains many sectors, temples, palaces and terraces. It was also the site of the Inca resistance against the Spanish. For many years the site was covered in vegetation offering a really fascinating adventure but you need to plan your trip carefully to avoid problems.

Excellent guide!!! Guys, Alfredo is the best guide we've ever known. I highly recommend, as we took a private tour with him. He picked us up and left where we were. Very attentive and taught everything, even to my youngest son. It's worth it!

Private City Tour - 4 Ruins of Cusco We met Alfredo while we walked in the historic center of Cusco. He was our guide at the Church and Convent of Santo Domingo - Qoricancha. We liked his performance in the Church so much that we chose to accept his offer for a private tour of 4 Inca ruins in Cusco (Sacsayhuamán, Qengo, Puka Pukara and Tambomachay). At the end, we visited a farm of lamas and alpacas and we were able to buy some baby alpacas. The walk was amazing. Alfredo is very kind and attentive. It explains in detail interesting points about the Inca civilization. For those who want to know Cusco and its history, we recommend contacting Alfredo.

Excellent guide!!! I highly recommend Alfredo! He explained everything to us in detail. He took us to the main sites in Cuzco in his own car. The next day, we made the entire Sacred Valley route as a private visit. It was great, because in the places we wanted, we stayed longer. Very attentive and speaks quite calmly, giving to understand everything he explains.

Highly recommend this tour! We had a fantastic experience with our tour guide Alfredo! We highly recommend this day trip. Alfredo was very knowledgeable and fluent in English. It was a lot of fun to learn so much about the Inka culture and history. You could tell that Alfredo loves this country and its rich history which made this tour unforgettable. The driver Alfonso was great too. We felt safe at all times. Pick up and drop off was as agreed upon on time. Very professional.

Wonderful experience to reach 5000+ meters top We had good experiences with our previous private tour to scared valley thus we hired the same tour guide, Alfredo, to Rainbow mountain after returning to Cusco. We made it to the top of Rainbow mountain in rains but it was worth all the efforts!

If you want to experience the sacred valley in a day, this is the tour for you! We had the best day on this tour! You will leave feeling like you’ve seen all the highlights from the sacred valley. Our guide, Alfredo, was very knowledgeable and clearly passionate about the Incas and the various sites. We learned a lot! The itinerary itself was also great. It’s an 11 hour day, which is ambitious, but Alfredo and our driver, Alfonso, made the whole experience go by fast. They also knew which areas to go to first to avoid the really large tour bus crowds - at each site, we were leaving as those groups were entering. I will recommend this tour and company to anyone coming to Cusco.
