Inca Trail 2 Days to Machu Picchu - Premium
The two day Machu Picchu tour was amazing! My friends and I had such an amazing experience as the trip was well coordinated. Our guide Katie was phenomenal, and did such an awesome job making us feel at ease and incorporating so much history and her own personal history through the trek. The porters and chef were rockstars despite being short staffed and we had delicious meals and a very comfortable camping experience despite the weather! So many logistics to coordinate four our group of four and they really knocked it out of the park. A bonus for us was how well our guide paced us throughout the hike. No matter your physical level trek experience will ensure you have a good time! I’d recommend Tour to anyone, especially if Katie is your guide

Inca Trail 2 Days to Machu Picchu - Premium
Amazing experience overall. The trekking is pristine, with great care and preparing taking place. Having said that, our experience would not have been half as good if not for the wonderful Cati, our guide. Her attention and care were unmatched, her disposition and happiness contagious, and she definitely showed us the best time possible. If not for the great trek, I would do it again just for her.

I do recommend this tour company, largely due to the incredible professionalism and compassion of our guide, Ade, and lead Renato. During our trek, I suffered a severe tonsillitis infection with a high fever, forcing my partner and me to turn back on the first day. Renato handled the situation flawlessly. He immediately arranged for a porter to safely guide us back and coordinated with the office to ensure we could rejoin the group for the final day at Machu Picchu. Their support during a stressful time was truly above and beyond. Although our hike was cut short, the food we did experience was absolutely incredible. The chef prepared the most amazing Peruvian dishes. Renato also has knowledge about almost everything about the Inca and Machu Picchu. This team doesn't just run a tour; they take genuine care of their guests. If you're looking for a company that will look after you no matter what, choose this one.
