Abel, our guide was amazing! He was patient with our group at all times and was always so quick to find a fix for any problem we might encounter. I definitely recommend this agency as they were able to offer a great mix of not just the tourist spots but also the cultural and local spots that a tourist might miss. 10/10 recommended!

We had a full day and a half tours with Abel. He has a very likable personality and pairs that with professionalism and tremendous knowledge of the Inca ruins, history and culture. Our first stop was Sacred Valley and all around it. The other half day tour was Cusco. Abel picked us up in our hotel on time with a tour van that was nearly new, clean and with a professional driver!

On our way to sacred valley Abel was telling us many facts about Peru and Cusco. He wowed us with stories of the ancient and powerful Incas. At times we were at the edge of our seat awaiting the next story. We were provided water and soft drinks. And taken to a delicious local restaurant for Peru’s famous ceviche and other dishes. In all we learned so much information about the history and culture of Peru that we would could have never learned for ourselves even with the help of the all mighty Google. We would recommend this company for tours in South America for our friends, loved ones, and you!!!

Among all companies in Cusco I have chosen Sparrow Explorer based on a friend recommendation! I did not regret it ! It was an amazing trek with Abel and his team.
Before the trek Abel meet us to have a briefing and arrange all of our transportations before and after the trek. He makes the trek very inspiring with all of his knowledge, very impressive. All of this team was always smiling with lot of energy and what can I say about the meals, it was extra ! I would recommend at 200% Sparrow Explorer for any of treks that you plan to do in Peru !

Thanks again Abel for this amazing experience ! Hope to see you soon.

I travelled South America in March as a solo female traveller for my first time and I was extremely nervous because I’m very young and unfamiliar with travel safety. But as soon as I met Abel when my tour began, my nerves began to disappear and I was able to relax and enjoy the whole experience knowing he was always there to answer all my questions, give good tips and advice for example the best places to eat, shop, party, take pictures etc. He also made sure we were always SAFE, and he was there to solve any problems or concerns we had. He went above, beyond and out of his way everyday to assure we had the best trip possible. I learned so much about Peru, it’s culture and more from him because he has so much knowledge about every part of it! I am so thankful and grateful to have been able to have him as my tour guide because my fears of being a lone traveller are gone and it was honestly the trip of a lifetime! It was the greatest experience and every destination was breathtaking!

Extremely well organised and fun tour with Abel around Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu taking in the wonders of the Inca Trail. Abel went out of his way to ensure the trip was enjoyed by all, tailoring it to our needs and aims. He had a great deal of knowledge about the area and history, along with lots of recommendations for the rest of our time in Peru and beyond.
