Un yours avec des visites et des commentaires du guide sympathiques. Très belle alternative pour faire un morceau de route dans ce beau pays en ayant un aspect culturel en même temps. Bravo aux guide pour ses commentaires pertinents et au conducteur !

As an alternative to a direct service between Puno & Cusco, I enjoyed visiting the stops along the way even though it takes 4h extra. You’ll visit Raqchi and the Andahuaylillas so once in Cusco, you can skip visiting these places. Bus was good although once someone in front of you reclines their seat, it’s very uncomfortable. Snacks and water + juice were provided, also very good guide commentary and a safe driver.
