Aguas Calientes 9-Day Tours and Trips

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.

You coordinated the land content, local transfers and flights to make it a smooth trip with minimal overlaps and provided good contact details for us to use if we were in difficulty. Our favourite hotel was Aranwa Scared Valley. The hotel was very well designed. The rooms were spacious, modern and had all the extras you would see in a good 5 star hotel. The grounds were well maintained and the landscaping was very interesting. Besides a theatre with evening shows and popcorn, there was an art gallery, well restored church, great pool area and many dining options. The staff were always helpful and worked well with our travel agent manage our bags left behind. The day trip to Machu Picchu, was the best!

What a phenomenal experience on the Salkantay hike with this travel company I want to thank our guide Edward who was incredible on the whole trek, the porters Cesar, Jairo, David, Gabriel who were just super-humans! They were all so friendly and supportive throughout the whole trip. Our chef Sebastian was somehow conjuring 5* meals, three times a day to keep us going and it was always something to look forward too. I cried when I said goodbye and thanked them as I honestly don’t know if I could have made it without all their support. This company clearly takes care of its workers and it’s worth paying a bit more to book with them as they really do respect all their staff. So worth it and highly recommend!

We just finished our 5D/5N hike on the Salkantay trail with our fabulous guide, Ivan and our amazing cooking team, Alberto, Luisa, and Waldir. Our week on the trail has been a beautiful experience that our family will always remember! The Andean mountains are incredible! Our guide, Ivan, was very knowledgeable and kind and patient! He taught us so much about Incan culture and history and local flora and fauna. He took wonderful care of our family! We also feel so grateful for the incredible food prepared each meal by our chefs and for the kindness of our porters and horsemen. We love this local travel expert!

This tour operator was amazing from start to finish. The process was so smooth and well organised. The guides (Nilton and Adolfo) were the best guides I’ve had when travelling - they have so much knowledge on the Inca sites, trail, flora, fauna, and local area. They made us feel like family. As well as the guides, the porters (lead by Juan), and the chef (Mario) went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable, safe and happy. The food was excellent, especially being vegetarian, there were so many delicious options and snacks. The tents, sleeping bags and equipment is a high standard. I would 100% recommend this company - you will be very lucky if you get Nilton and Adolfo as guides!

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.
