what people say

We pride ourselves on having an outstanding team. Here to serve you at every step along the way. But don’t just take our word for it,take a look at what others have said and have your say too.

We booked the Inca Trail hike and, I guess because it is a little less popular a choice, there was just the 2 of us on the hike. Us, 7 porters, a cook and tour guide. We felt like royalty. There is no need to describe how breathtaking and spectacular the hike

Hiking the Inca trail for one day and visiting Machu Pitchu was one of the most inspiring experiences. Thanks a lot for making the 2 days so special by guiding us and teaching us about the Incas and their communities that have built these incredible places.

The only way to do Machu Picchu is through the Inca Trail Trek arriving through the Sun Gate. As we learned from our INCREDIBLE guides James, Will, Eloy, and master planner Joel, everything the Incas did was on purpose. Everything
