Exclusive Cusco Private Tours & Local Experiences
As locals. We get it, time is your most valuable asset when traveling, especially in a city as deeply historic as Cusco, which is a UNESCO Site. If you only have a day or two to explore, you shouldn’t have to spend it trapped in the rigid schedule of a massive tour bus or a massive walking tour group.
That is exactly why we created our Cusco private tours. At Peru Summit Adventures, we don’t believe in cookie-cutter or classic itineraries. We believe in exclusive bespoke tours, letting you set the pace, choose your group size, and explore straight into the authentic heart of the Inca empire—Cusco, without the rush.
A truly personalized tour isn’t about luxury for the sake of excess; it’s about freedom. It’s about having the flexibility to spend an extra hour photographing the sunset in the Sacred Valley, visiting a hidden corn brewery (chicheria) home in the Ollantaytambo, or skipping a crowded restaurant to grab a fresh local snack (empanadas) on the go.
Whether your perfect trip involves a boutique hotel with centuries of history or a charming, family-run lodge tucked away in the Sacred Valley, our job is to handle all logistics to reach. You focus on enjoying the views; we take care of the rest.
We believe that you haven’t truly seen Cusco until you’ve experienced it through the eyes of someone who lives and breathes its history, someone who was born and grew up here. At Peru Summit Adventures, our resident expert guides don’t just show you the Sacred Valley or Machu Picchu; they connect you firsthand with the living Incan culture, taking you behind the scenes at ancient historical sites that most tourist buses completely bypass. That’s the essence of our Cusco Private Tours, that’s what makes our tours luxurious.
For us, going above and beyond isn’t a corporate slogan; it’s how we operate every single day. It’s those unexpected, unique moments along the trail or inside an ancient Inca site that turn a standard journey into a memorable experience. Whether you choose one of our meticulously planned Small Private Journeys or decide to Customize Your Own Tour, you are guaranteed our renowned local expertise at an unbeatable value that will turn your travel plans into lifetime experiences.
