Traveler reviews
An unforgettable experience with an amazing team!
We were a group of four friends who booked the Lares Trek together, and the entire experience was great from beginning to end. Everything was perfectly organised. The team took care of everything, from setting up our tents to preparing our meals and organising all the logistics. We loved how peaceful and untouched the surroundings felt. We barely encountered any other tourists, which made the trek feel even more special and authentic. Our guide, David, was absolutely fantastic! He is such a friendly, warm, and motivating person who made the entire experience even better. Throughout the trek and our visits to the different sites, he shared so much fascinating knowledge about the rich history, traditions, and culture of the Quechua people and the Incas. David guided us throughout the entire experience. We couldn’t have wished for a better guide! A huge shout-out to our amazing cooks, Félix and José, who prepared delicious food throughout the trek. As a vegan, I was especially impressed by how much delicious vegan food they made for me. I honestly didn’t expect such a fantastic variety of meals. On top of their amazing cooking, they were both kind and lovely people. And of course, Toribio, our horseman, deserves a massive thank you as well. He did an incredible job throughout the trek. His work is physically demanding, and we could see how much effort he put in. He was also a friendly person. The entire crew made this trip unforgettable. Their professionalism, kindness, hard work, and genuine warmth made us feel welcome and cared for at every moment. The combination of stunning landscapes, fascinating cultural insights, incredible food, and such a wonderful team made this one of the highlights of our trip to Peru.
An amazing trek with a lovely team!
We had an incredible experience with Yovani! Our group was just 4 people. The team is well organized and takes care of everything during the trek. Elisabeth was cooking amazing food in the camps! The whole team were locals, which was great as well.
Best tour guide ever!
My friend and I had the most amazing 4-day lares trek. We were part of a 7- person group and had the nicest and funniest guide David condori. The staff was very hardworking and friendly as well. The chef Beto, and the other staff took care of everything, made us feel really welcomed and made the best food we had in a long time. I especially appreciated that they took consideration of the fact that I’m vegan and made sure that I got a delicious substitute for every meal. We had different paces inside of the group, but David managed to give us all the time we needed, so we could enjoy the hike and views. It made it especially enjoyable with David’s jolly and joyful character and humour. Would definitely recommend it and do it again!
Incredible experience
What a wonderful experience! We were lucky to be just the 3 of us with my friends and Pachamama blessed us with incredible weather. Thanks to our super guide "the best of the best" Toribio for accompanying us and thanks to Luis Alberto and Ruben for the delicious food We recommend this company with our eyes closed!
Incredible!
Perfect organization of this 4-day trek. Agency available and responsive via WhatsApp. Explanations provided before our arrival were very comprehensive. Toribio, our guide, was incredible. I thank him for his kindness and his dedication. And our chef, Luis Alberto, delighted us. Meals worthy of a 3-star restaurant at an altitude of 4,000m. A magical experience with breathtaking landscapes and extremely generous people.
