Perfect
We had a fabulous nine-day tour, including the two day Inca experience, Inca trail/Machu Picchu, and Rainbow Mountain. John, our contact, met us at the airport and helped us generally acclimate to the new culture. We cannot praise Adolfo, our guide, enough for his knowledge, experience, and attentiveness to our needs. He was so fun to be with. Our driver, Edgar, was excellent. All over, a fantastic adventure.
2 day Short Inca Trail To Machu Picchu was fantastic!
The whole trip was just fantastic. The trail the first day was stunning, nature, Inca sites, sun-gate and then the arrival to Machu Picchu citadel at the end of the day. A comfortable hotel at Aguas Calientes and a great tour of the Machu Picchu site next day. The tour was absolutely MAGIC, and our tour guide, John Taqquere Villanueva was beyond impressive and kind. He knew so much about the history, culture, current status of the region and its people, he also made us totally comfortable and went out of his way to arrange some specific things (such as a birthday cake for our daughter). His positive mood, encouraging style and passion for culture and nature totally made the trip an unforgettable one. The local travel expert truly went above and beyond to make sure we had the best possible Inca Trail experience.
