Machu Picchu by Train: 2-Day, 1-Night Adventure
We had a really nice experience with our tour guides JJ and William. JJ has told us a lot about the different places we have visited during the hike. The tour in general was it really worth especially since we have seen the place Winaywayna which we would not have seen only by visiting the Machu Picchu.

JJ and William were great tour guides. I’m very slow and they would regularly let me know that they want me to enjoy and not rush. One would be with the normal paced group and one would walk in the back with me. I appreciated them very much. All the food was delicious for all meals. JJ does a great job setting expectations and making sure we understand where to go and when. He has eyes in the back of his head and knows where every one of us are at all times.

Inca Trail vs Salkantay Trek
When choosing a trek to Machu Picchu, there are two main options: the Salkantay Trek and the Inca Trail. But which one is right for you? Here's a quick breakdown of each option to help you decide: The Salkantay Trek is a longer, more challenging option th
I loved the Inca Trail with TreXperience. The organization was very good, efficient, communication excellent. The guides, Jose and Alex, were both professional, helpful and very nice, friendly, as well as all porters, chief and vice-chief. We all felt like big family, while being taken care of. The group was small, 14 people only - other companies had much bigger groups. While trekking, one of the guides was always at the end, making sure nobody was left behind, while one could go ahead faster at his/her own pace and wait for the group at agreed location. All of us couldn't believe how good the food was, made everyday from fresh ingredients, with several entries for lunch and dinner, all individual dietery needs taken care of. There were some nice unadvertised extras like pillows or sleeping always in the same tent, tea delivered to tent to help wake up, warm water to wash face and hands. I assume you know about the beauty of the trek and amaziness of Machu Picchu, and I highly recommend enjoying them with TreXperience! Should I hopefully go for another trek in Peru, I will for sure go with TreXperience.
