Traveler reviews
An unforgettable 4 day/ 3 night Inca Trail experience
An incredible experience from start to finish. The scenery throughout the trek was breathtaking, the food was fantastic, and the atmosphere within the group was great. The guides were brilliant, extremely knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what they do. They taught us so much about the history, culture, and significance of the Inca Trail. The porters were great, they made sure that our tents were set up, food was made, water was available, and everything was as clean as possible. Everything was organised to a very high standard, and the entire experience felt professional, well managed and safe. We always felt we were in great hands. Reaching Machu Picchu at the end was the perfect highlight and made all the effort worthwhile. I genuinely couldn’t fault anything. If you’re considering doing the 4 day/ 3 night Inca Trail, I couldn’t recommend this experience enough.
Great time
Challenging but rewarding experience
4 days classic inca trail
The 4 day classic inca trail was the experience of a lifetime. Jose Miguel our excellent guide and his great assistant Jose Luis made the journey a learning experience about the inca culture and the fauna along the way. This adventure would not have been made possible without the assistance of our team of wakys(27) including our chef Wilfredo, our server Filipe and our masseuse Alicia who made the journey more enjoyable with our daily massage. We were taken care of like queens and king. Thank you very much to the entire team. 😀👍❤️
Unforgettable experience
Incredible route that is also tough, but it is worth it. The interaction with the provider is direct and decisive, everything is very clear. The guide is great, we were very lucky to have Marquito, a group leader who is fun and very well-prepared; he infects you with his enthusiasm for his culture in an energetic way. The camp is great, everything is taken care of down to the detail, drinking water is always available, good mattresses, cushions, and a very comfortable tent. The food is very good, a large quantity and excellent flavor, thanks to the magnificent chef. The 2nd day is the most intense, but every minute of the journey is worth it; the landscapes and the great company made us feel like family to achieve the goal. Thank you for this unforgettable experience.
Trek is better than destination
Marco and Frank were a great pair of Guides. Did the trip solo but had a great time getting to know everyone in the group and getting to know Marco & Frank. Tough trek (from the perspective of someone who never treks) but the porters, cooks, and guides make it enjoyable (and doable)
