          Not worth the time or money.
          The tour was meh. The first place we went was Sasqawaman, and that was worth going to. However, you can walk there from downtown Cusco in about 30 minutes or take a cab for ten soles. The rest of the places we went to were very small, very fast, and generally not worth the trip. I like history and archeology, so I enjoy this kind of stuff, but I do not recommend this tour. Instead, walk it get a taxi to Sasqawaman, then read up on the other four sites that will be listed on your entry ticket (70 soles) and see if you want to go there. They are all with close. The biggest downside to this tour was that it ended after stopping at the most expensive alpaca clothing shop in the area, in a small nearby town. This was just an effort to convince us that only these guys have genuine alpaca and so the rest of the stuff anywhere rose was fake, so you need to buy from them. Not recommended.

          Great Tour
          Great tour of some archeological sites while saving some time to enjoy the rest of the day. Transportation was arranged to and from the airport which made our travel plans much easier. We would definitely book again.

          Best option for single travelers.
          This was one my favorite tours. So happy Heidi has tours for singles. It's one of a few agencies that value your business. If you are going it on your own they are best!

          HIGHLY RECOMMEND ❤️
          Not only were Heidi and this trip absolutely amazing but it was the most incredible experience we've ever had. Heidi went above and beyond to make sure everything was planned and thoroughly explained. We even stopped at her home so we could experience the culture of her home town and she treated us to delicious coffee and breakfast. Heidi continued to remind us of when/where we needed to be daily and made our lives so much easier. And the tour guide she hired for us for Machu Picchu was amazing!! We love Heidi Travel!!! ❤️

          Peru The power of love and friendship
          First of all, I want to thank all the Peruvians who made our trip special. I will recommend Heidi. She is your friend in a strange land. She did not leave us any time feeling alone and helpless. She was commendable. The whole trip was fine and smooth, and we were happy but when we reached Cusco, the tourism police would not let people go to Machu Pichu even if you had the ticket in your hands. The one and only website of Peru tourism sells the tickets to Machu Pichu, and it never mentions that you will not be given any choice to pick a hike, you will not be allowed to go on a day when you had booked it. So, every day from 4am to 9pm you have to stand in line to get approved by tourism police, then after standing for the whole day you may have to go and repeat standing again in the line from 4am to 9pm and you may be told to enjoy the village and go back, without seeing the Machu Pichu. I was literally crying. We packed our bags, and we were about to leave without seeing the Machu Pichu but then Heidi and her friend got us in.In my opinion Heidi and her friend Giovanna have a good team and they will take care of you. They did for us. Love the Peruvians .

          Machu Picchu with Heidi Travel Peru
          Heidi travel is a very small independent agency based out of Cusco, Peru. Upon arrival in Cusco Heidi met me at the airport and took me to my hotel. From the start of my trip right to the end Heidi arranged everything, and if I had any questions she was always available by phone or what’s app to answer my concerns. She went out of her way to make my visit to Machu Picchu one I will never forget. Anything she can help you with she will. If your planning day trips or longer in the Cusco area I would 110% recommend Heidi travel she’s a fantastic person, local and very, very happy to help you arrange anything from travel to accommodation to entry tickets. She also works with some wonderful local knowledgable guides and has contacts all over the Cusco area. I can’t recommend Heidi Travel Peru highly enough! Thank you Heidi

          Stress free Machu Picchu trip
          Heidi was incredibly informative and communicated consistently before, during, and after my trip. Heidi put together an itinerary for me that covered all of the planning details. She met me in person to review all the steps and give me the train and bus tickets. She also offered suggestions for other places and things to do.

          Best personal service by Heidi during dream vacation to Machupicchu, Ollantaytambo, Maras, Moray and Cusco.
          We were planning visit to Machupicchu and were searching for travel agent and got reference of Heidi travels from trip advisor. I sent what’s up message and received response immediately. We then exchanged messages and came up with best itinerary. Heidi asked for some advance to do bookings for train and hotels and I must say I was skeptical to transfer money to someone I did not know. We were traveling from USA to Peru for first time and unfortunately missed our flight to Lima from Atlanta. We quickly communicated to Heidi and she responded with modified reservations as we lost one day of our trip. Heidi received us at Cusco airport and we quickly became friends. Her English is very good and had no issues communicating. Her service was very personal and attention to details. Her guides to Machupicchu, Ollantaytambo, Maras and Moray were excellent. I would recommend to use her travel agency for any travel within Peru. Heidi even helped us for transportation from Nasca to paracas, when cruz del sur cancelled our bus at last moment.

          Spontaneous stay with Heidi
          We met Heidi in Calca. She was super friendly and invited us to her home. Her lovely, spontaneous and welcoming character was a huge gift to us. While we enjoyed spending time with Heidi and her Family, she was very helpful, interested, knowing and answered all our questions. She helped us to get around in Calca when the roads were blocked. Meeting her was such a great experience and made us very happy. All the best for you and your lovely family, Heidi!

          Great Tour with an Awesome Guide
          Heidi was a great travel agent! She was very responsive and gave us clear instructions for our MP tour! Our guide for the tour was awesome and we also booked a few other tours in Cusco with Heidi directly. We loved both of the other ones we booked as well and I would recommend to book with Heidi!

          Heidi Travel's Great & Safe for North Americans/Europeans/All People
          My group of 9 friends and I used Heidi Travel to book local tours in Cusco and our Machu Picchu trip. She's very good at communicating through Whatsapp (will respond anytime) and only connects you with people she trusts. You can feel safe in knowing that you will be Heidi's top priority during your trip. My group returned back to Canada before the political unrest. But I'm sure Heidi will direct you to resources or is able to address your concerns on this matter.

        A dream come true, visiting the Humantay Lagoon. Heidi gave me a detailed briefing the night before the tour and was very informative and helpful. The transport showed up on time for pickup from my hotel in cusco. It was a smooth drive to the trail head. They offerd a breakfast which was very delicious. The hike was somewhat challenging but totally worth it.
