Inca Trail Tours in Spring

This is my second trip with G Adventures. My other trip was to Patagonia. The customer service leading up to the trip was amazing. No problem left unanswered. The CEOs are so knowledgable and passionate. I really appreciated their deep knowledge and their willingness to talk deeply about their cultures. The food was out of this world. I could not believe how excellent the foods was at a campsite. I am spoiled forever. It was made with such care and knowledge and even presented nicely on the plate. It was the perfect nutrition for me as well. I appreciated the soups and the fresh vegetables. The porters engaged with us and were courteous and extremely hard working. The itinerary and hiking were amazing. I loved the Lares trail and will dream of those mountains forever.

This company was simply awesome. Five stars foods from the chef everyday. Albel main our tour guide is very knowledgeable of the region and history. He is like our father figure during the 5 days / 4 nights expedition of the Inca trails. He took great care of us and addressed all our needs. Marcella our leave no man behind trail guide was awesome. She took care of all the slower hikers and even carry all their backpacks, even hold hands during stepper stairs. Porters worked very hard carrying all our bags, tent, toilet, etc. 5 stars crew. I highly recommend.

This was the most AMAZING experience I have ever had. Saul G. and Fernando were the most incredible, engaging, fun, hilarious, guides and friends we could ever ask for. I ate better on the 4 day 3 night Inca trail hike than I do in my regular life. Chef Julián is a genius, beautiful food and it tastes even better! On the last night they even made us a cake at camp! I can’t speak highly enough of it. Also, the porters were immaculate! Mateo led the team and every time we made it to camp our tents were set up and everything was perfect. This was genuinely the best experience of my life. They made us feel safe and challenged and accomplished. I could not recommend this experience enough and it would not have been possible without the leadership of Saul and Fernando. Sul pike (muchas gracias)!!

"Excellent tour! We (50f, & 2 teens) found this tour operator from great reviews and had a great experience. 2-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 representatives 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. "

Words and photos will never be able to describe the phenomenal experience I had on the Classic Inca trail to Machu Picchu with this agency. You must request Teddy and Gregory as your guides along with Chef Cecilio and Head Porter Eugenio. This crew was outstanding and made my trip. Teddy and Gregory are the most amazing humans! They have so much sincerity to ensure you not only have a safe hike, but a fun journey. They are knowledgeable and have great historical facts and stories along the trail, they always have a positive attitude, and their encouragement to keep pushing gives you faith that you can make it - these two made you look forward to what was ahead (and let me tell you, it was challenging!) Chef Cecilio prepared outstanding meals morning, noon and night. You were never hungry and the variety was mind blowing considering we were in the middle of the mountains! Eugenio and his crew of porters - WOW! These porters are in charge of setup, teardown, and carrying everything (tents, your pack, food, toilet, etc,) from base to base. They are swift - waking up before us and going to sleep after us, the kindest, and work so incredibly hard to ensure you have everything you could need and more. I was blessed to be paired with 13 incredible humans from around the world. We all bonded so well and rallied each other when we saw the trail trying to defeat us. I know lifelong friends were made on this trip. Our weather could not have been more spectacular with the exception of a few hours on the final day, where is rained all the way to Machu Picchu before the sun shined over the ruins! I'm not an experienced hiker at all. This was my first hike ever. I didn't train, I booked 10 days before the hike, and truthfully, if it wasn't for everyone mentioned above, I would have never competed the hike. It was that mentally and physically challenging for me. Surrounded by the right people you can do anything!! Now, book your classic Inca trail hike with this travel specialist, I guarantee you won't regret it

"Lizandro and Valentine were our guides for the tour and they were the best. Walter was our head chef. All the positives of the trip on why this is a 5 star review * lizandro and valentine always told us exactly what to expect the day before. A 45 min hike is a 45 min hike. * they told us how to be first to get into machu picchu and we were the first ones. We got great photos while everyone else had to wait in line at the sun gate. * when we were missing an air matress to needed more toilet paper (absolute necessity) they hooked it up. Problem solved. * I never liked history, but they kept the infosessions interesting. Learning about all the Inca ruins. If I saw them myself, it would've just been a cool structure. But they educate you on the purpose, timelines, etc. * they were willing to listen to extra requests from the group and accommodate them, which I think is absolutely extraordinary. One of the members from our group wanted to stray from the itinerary and they accommodated her for it. * the camping experience was made easy. Porters carried duffle bags for you which allowed you to pack light on the hike. They also set up the tents and took it down so it's minimal touch. * the food that was cooked which was breakfast lunch and dinner was gourmet. We had 4-5 dishes of different foods for each meal. Enough to keep everyone full, and the food tasted phenomenal * hikes were rough, but the guides knew exactly when to take stops to let everyone take a breath. When times were tough a break was taken to drink water and remove a layer of clothing * the recommendations for layers were spot on. If they say to wear a jacket and hat it means so. They knrw when the sun was coming up so they also knew when to keep your clothes on or take it off. * they were amazing photographers where they knew all the spots to take a photo. Cons * camp bathrooms were always dirty (but our guides made sure we made it to camp first and that's when bathrooms were cleanest)"
