Experiencia inolvidable

Unforgettable experience. The guide, Santiago, is a professional from head to toe. Very attentive, very knowledgeable and a great person. The group of porters and cook have also been wonderful. They have looked after us very well, always with a smile and the cook is a spectacle. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend this team to the next brave people who venture on the Inca Trail.

It was a great experience of nature and its history Encounters with nature and its stories

The activities were varied and very appropriate for the tour that was carried out with a great guide who instructs on the history of this beautiful place. I just think that it should be more specific with brochures or pamphlets to better enjoy the experience.
