Amazing Trekking Experience

Our 4 day Inca Trail to Machu Picchu was amazing. Our guide, Filio, was excellent. He took care of our group. We had one member get sick and he was able to ensure we could still keep trekking and were able to rest and recover. Our chef, Beltran, and porters were SO amazing. Watching the porters run the trail that we were slowly trekking was quite the scene. Overall TreXperience handled our group from booking to final lunch and everything was flawless! I would 100% recommend this tour group and Filio as a tour guide to anyone interested in doing this trek.

Best experience ever!

The best experience we could’ve asked for. Alan was our tour guide and he did an amazing job explaining the history about the Inca’s and all the sacred places, also keeping us motivated during the long hike. Leandro and his kitchen team were amazing, preparing some of the best food during the hike. Lots of food and options, it’s impressive all they can prepare up in the trails. Benedicto and his porters team were always making us feel like part of the family, they also worked super hard moving all the equipment from camp to camp to make sure everything was ready for us once we arrived at the camp. They were always waiting for us with smiles and clapping, congratulating us every time we reached the camp. Blessed to had such a great team for my 4 day Inca Trail!

Best tripe ever!

Our guide, Renato was so knowledgeable, kind and accomodating. You could really feel his passion in everything he talked about and he made the trip so special. Efrain was also very helpful and a pleasure to be around for 4 days. The head chef Daniel and his su chef Jaime prepared the most delicious meals. Damason, the waiter would always bring out the food with the biggest smile and had the loveliest presence. Many thanks to Alfredo and all the other porters, the work they do is really unfathomable.

Excellent experience

Amazing experience to do, we visited unimaginable places with a special mystic. And I don’t want to fail to mention the work that porters and cooks do that if it wasn’t for them this trip wouldn’t be possible, they are excellent people with tremendous mental and physical strength. And the best guide of all is Filio who with all his knowledge about the Inca culture made this trip even more enriching and magical.

Super Wawa

We were a small group of 5 with the guide and team. Firstly, the Filio guide is incredibly kind, he has a lot of humor and above all he likes to pass on all knowledge throughout the trek. I learned a lot about Peruvian, Inca culture and about nature and mountains. Regarding comfort and camp life , I was surprised by so much kindness and attention from the guide as well as the porters and the two cooks. The food was amazing, every day his surprise! At the end of the week we feel like a little family. I could still say a lot but I prefer to tell you to live the experience nothing will be better than that!
