The hiking was awesome, lots of beautiful and different landscapes along the way. On a clear sky at night one can see the Milky Way, it’s incredible. The special views from Macchu Pichu that only can be seen by hikers made everything perfect.
"Excellent tour! We (50f, & 2 teens) found this tour operator from great reviews and had a great experience. Two-day Incra train tour with hotel. Clear and thorough communication before and during the tour. (Definitely follow tips about needing 6mos on passport, collecting and rechecking baggage in Lima, and arriving at least 2 days before tour for acclimation to altitude.) One of our group had altitude sickness so bad they couldn't do the hike, and the company helped us find an alternative so one of us could still do the hike and two of us took the train all the way to Aguas Calientes and were still able to tour Machu Picchu on the second day. Excellent service and hotel. Wouldn't go with another company.
Was very impressed with this tour company. My group did our trek November 11-14, 2023. As a first time traveler to Peru and the Andes mountains, I could not think of a better introduction to see the Incan Trail and Machu Picchu. Our trek of 3 nights of the classic Incan Trail in my opinion was flawless experience all things considered. I want to give a big shoutout to our chef Simon and all the porters! The meals were delicious. Simon and his assistants did a great job! Our guides Javi and Valentin went above and beyond for everyone in our group. Great guys! They made it a lot of fun and shared with us stories and history of the region. It is definitely a challenging hike to do the classic Incan trail especially at this altitude. I definitely recommend the basics of preparing physically and eating extra healthy to be doing this trek. It is very doable for the majority of people in half way decent shape. Good hydration is something to take seriously. You will not appreciate the experience in the same way without the physical challenge of being out in the nature for 3 days trekking. Really awesome to see the variety of microclimates throughout the trail. The operator is a great business and they hire really awesome people! I have all positive things to say. In conversation with people about visiting Machu Picchu I will always remember this tour company.
I went on Salkantay Trek and the experience was absolutely incredible. Our guide, Edward was phenomenal throughout, answering all our questions and teaching us about the history, geography, nature and culture of that incredible place. I've never had a better tour guide anywhere I've been. The whole experience of Salkantay wouldn't have been possible without the amazing Chef Sebastian and our porters, Cesar, Jairo, David as well as our horseman Gabriel. Sebastian cooked the most incredible meals, we basically had a banquet for breakfast, lunch and dinner! The porters not only helped with all the cooking but also set up our campsite each night, making sure we were comfortable, safe and able to continue the trek each day. I will be recommending this tour company to everyone I know, and if you're traveling to the Cusco region I don't think there's a better company you could go with.
I highly recommend this tour operator for the Inca trail! Our guides, Fletcher and Wilber, were amazing! Their personality and knowledge of the Inca trail and history made for a memorable experience. The food was amazing. They provided a sample of Peruvian culture through their food and stories, all cooked by our own personal chef! The Inca trail was beautiful and the porters worked so hard to make the experience feel even more memorable and comfortable. I can’t say enough about this company and experience. Don’t hesitate and book with them.
In our group we had 3 vegans, 2 gluten free, 1 dairy free, 1 fish free which is a lot!!! Every meal was beyond delicious and our chef Jose really worked hard to help us enjoy every meal and be well fueled for the long, strenuous daily hikes. Our guides Miguel and Romario made us all feel safe right away, educated us at every occasion and created an incredible respectful environment while hiking this amazingly difficult trail. The group really had a great vibe with each other so many fun times were had! Our porters worked harder than anyone I’ve ever seen work and had our tents, pads and duffels waiting for us at the end of each days hike. I highly recommend this tour!
I joined the 2 day Machu Picchu hike with this travel operator. The communication prior to hike was great. They answered all my questions. Our tour guides Reynaldo and Marizol were great. Very friendly, very knowledgeable and really made it a great hike. The hotel we stayed in Agua Caliente was clean and comfortable with good breakfast. 👍🏻
Well prepared Salkantay trek 5d/5n zone with Saul G as a guide and Gregorio as a chef and Cesar and Walter as porters. Good food all the way and amazing places to sleep such as the hobbit houses and the star gazing houses the very first night. Bonus was the lomo saltado cooking class and the visit of a coffee farm.
Did a 4D/3N Inca trail hike to Machu Picchu, had an experience of a lifetime!! The tour guide leader Elisban and his partner Henry were both amazing. Very knowledgeable and helpful/kind people. The chefs also cooked terrific food! Every meal was a surprise as each one was almost better than the last. The porters who carry your luggage are hard workers who make sure your sleeping and dining tents are set up on time for when you arrive to camp. All these people work hard for you to have the best time. It’s glamping for sure. If I decide to go on another trek in Cusco I’m going with them. Thanks again to Elisban and Henry, along with their team of porters and chef for making my trip an amazing, life memorable experience!!! Couldn’t have done a better job.
