A amazing experience of a lifetime

An amazing trip of a lifetime! I was worried before the trek if we would handle it , we were older than the rest of our group but our wonderful guide Valentin was so reassuring and helped us all the way. He even helped my husband by offering a horse for the steep part pf the hike.he also was great company, even when things didn’t go to plan such as a 5 hour train delay , he handled everything superbly and very calm. The meals cooked on the trip were amazing plentiful and varied all made possible in very basic facilities by our wonderful chef Miguel

Lifetime experience

We had a great experience doing the Lares Trek to Machu Picchu. Our guide, Valentin, was amazing and made our journey unforgettable, answering all our questions, making sure we all had a good time, and adjusting the pace whenever needed. A special thanks to our chef, Miguel, for the top-quality meals, and to the porters who did a fantastic job and were always ready to help. Armando

Lares Trek

Juan Carlos (Pilco) was a fantastic guide, assisted by Felix. Together they were on top of all of the admin and great company to be around for our Lares Trek tour to machu picchu. The chef Octavio also produced great food for us across the journey. Overall had a great time.

Beautiful experience with experienced guides!

This was the most incredible travel experience and made me want to do more guided treks in the future! Everyone on the staff, but especially our guides Juan Carlos & Romario & our chef Miguel, made this a great trip. Their knowledge of the region, Peruvian history, and more made this especially interesting. I would highly recommend the Lares trek in particular as we only saw 2 other tour groups the entire time, each with 4 people or less. It was empty and peaceful when we went mid-September.
