Zema is a sweet, kind man that gets it done! He employs the best tour guides around the country and makes sure we are all having a blast. He is a problem solver too. I literally only booked this trip because I wanted to go to Machu Picchu. The day before we were supposed to go on that excursion the local indigenous peoples began striking for equitable resources related to all the tourism that their lands bring into the country. My partner and I supported that effort and we were going to be highly disappointed if we did not get to go. With some creative work and networking, he was able to get us on the first day trip after the strike broke. This was our first post-Covid trip. Peru was super safe regarding masking and safety measures. Once again, cannot say enough about Zema and the people at Expat. This is my second trip with the company and I will continue to be a customer!
This was such a trip of a lifetime! I am so glad I booked it and went. The weather couldn't have been any more in our favor too! Clari was such an amazing trip manager - she was so passionate about Peru and making sure we were seeing all the highlights we signed up for. The Inca trail was my favorite part of this trip, so definitely make sure you book that! You get to see so much more of the surrounding area that way of Machu Picchu. 10/10 would re-live this trip again in all of its glory!
We had a very good trip. Very professional guides for tours and excellent guide for our trek, which help a lot my husband which had some altitude sickness.
A smooth experience from start to finish, with wonderful friendships made along the way. We were able to cover a lot of territory without having to worry about how to get to each our destinations. The accommodations and transportation exceeded our expectations. Our friendly, experienced guides were great at providing interesting insights and background on what we were seeing and were very helpful with any translation/communication challenges.
The trip was really good with lots of standout places and experiences. Our trip manager was brilliant. He was friendly and knowledgeable and made everything easy. Some of the accommodation wasn’t the best (poor showers, uncomfortable beds, no safety lock box, no elevator) but for the most part acceptable.
Recently completed hikes in Peru including the Classic 4day Inca Trail, Sacred Valley, Vinicunca and Lake Humantay.
All hikes were spectacular, our guides, cook and porters very professional and looked after us very well. We were very spoilt with great food and companionship. Thanks to Nep and his team, they truely made us feel part of their family.
This travel operator provided us with a two-day trek to Machu Picchu that has to be experienced to be truly understood. Their crew of porters and cook provided exceptional service and meals. David's knowledge was outstanding and his attention to detail in regards to accommodation travel and gear storage was second to none. If you want a first class trekking experience this company should be your first choice.
The guide (Fisher) was fabulous as he dealt with every situation calmly and the coordinator (Diana) of the tour in Cusco was a dream and kept us up to date and answered all my questions promptly.
