The Journey to Macchu Picchu with National Geographic and G Adventures was so much more than I bargained for. Not only did we see and explore Macchu Picchu, but in the days leading up to the "Big Mountain' we learned so much about the Incan culture and practices from the visits to other lesser-known archeological and cultural sites, that by the time we arrived at the UNESCO World Heritage, Macchu Picchu, I felt that I actually understood this extraordinary site and its significance to the Incan people.

Shared more about this previously :) But I also wanted to add that for me, the highlight of the trip was our visit to the Parque de la Papa. This was such a special opportunity and the work G Adventures does for local communities is admirable.

Thoroughly enjoy the trip. The itinerary was well thought out. Plenty of time to allow for acclimatisation before the final highlight - the Inca Trail. Special shout out to Darwin our tour leader who goes extra mile to ensure we enjoy our trip. He is very keen to share his knowledge and love about Peru.

This was an excellent trip in every way. The leader Alejandro was outstanding- very caring, helpful , informative and well-organised. Peru is a varied and interesting country and although Machu Picchu was spectacular there were many other highlights to our tour. The itinerary covered a lot of ground but it was not too rushed with a good mix of organised activities and some free time. The transport by bus and train was comfortable and the hotels were good and well-situated.

Roger is the best of the best. Our experience wouldn’t have been the same without him - he knows everyone and everything. A true ‘go to’ person to have with you in Peru. He’s super cool and brings good vibes to the group. He made the experience in my opinion - it wouldn’t have been the same without him and his extensive knowledge of the locals and Peru.
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.
