Wonderful guide and driver

5.00Wonderful guide Mihai, and driver Juan! They took great care of us as we visited Chinchero, Moray, and the Salt Mine of Maras. Mihai was well-informed, very helpful with providing answers to just about any question, and was both very kind and friendly. Juan navigated the windy narrow dirt roads expertly and kept us comfortable in a clean well-kept car with AC.
Best tour ever

5.00This was our first tour in Peru! I loved that the tour started in Scared Valley, lower altitude from Cusco. Our guide Mihai, spoke very good English and was super knowledgeable about everything Peru and Inca. From the textile tour to salt mine, we enjoyed every stop on the tour!

Outstanding Sacred Valley Tour – Salt Mines & Moray

5.00We had an exceptional experience touring the Sacred Valley Salt Mines and Moray with Mihai. He is incredibly smart, knowledgeable, and informative—sharing history, culture, and fascinating details in a way that was engaging and easy to understand. You could truly feel his passion for Peru and its heritage throughout the day. Pickup was seamless from Mountain View Experience, and Mihai even went out of his way to offer help arranging transportation for Machu Picchu, which we really appreciated. A special shoutout to Juan, our driver, who was excellent—safe, attentive, and made the journey comfortable and smooth the entire time. This tour exceeded our expectations and felt both well-organized and personal. Highly recommend Mihai and his team if you want a memorable, stress-free, and enriching Sacred Valley experience.
