About this activity

The private transfer from Cusco Airport to Urubamba takes between 1h15 and 1h30 with Taxi Cusco Tours A1, the direct option for travelers who choose to stay in the heart of the Sacred Valley instead of Cusco city.

Urubamba sits at a lower altitude than Cusco (around 2,870 m versus the city’s 3,400 m), making it a popular base for acclimatizing during the first few days. It also concentrates several of the valley’s best-known hotels and resorts, with quick access to Moray, the Maras salt pans, and Ollantaytambo.

Pickup point: Cusco Airport arrivals area
Route: direct to the heart of the Sacred Valley
Drop-off: agreed hotel or location in Urubamba
Approximate duration: 1h15–1h30

Going straight from the airport avoids an unnecessary stop in Cusco if your itinerary already starts in the valley. The route descends gradually, which many travelers appreciate after a long flight and before feeling the full effects of altitude.

  • Private vehicle, not shared with other passengers
  • Flight tracking to adjust pickup time
  • Direct route that avoids downtown Cusco traffic
  • Driver familiar with the valley’s hotels and resorts

This private transfer costs $35 USD. Book via WhatsApp (https://wa.link/x3961f) or call +51 900 938 460, letting us know your flight or train date and time so we can coordinate pickup. We confirm the exact time and vehicle plate number in advance.

With over a decade operating in Cusco and a 5.0/5.0 TripAdvisor rating (36 reviews, ranked #39 out of 611 transportation services in the city), we know what it means not to miss a flight, a train, or the start of a tour because of a late transfer. Our dispatch center is available 24 hours a day.

If you’re planning tours to Moray, Maras, or Ollantaytambo from Urubamba, we can coordinate those additional transfers with the same driver who picks you up at the airport.
