Traveler reviews
Jam-packed and fun
This experience was a fantastic way of taking in the beauty of the Sacred Valley, learn about important Incan archaeological sites, and cap it off with the big ticket Machu Picchu at the end. We really appreciated how informed our guide Frank kept us of where we were going and what we would be doing there. He was always prepared with our admission tickets and was flexible in his plans if we needed him to be, which made for a memorable experience
An Unforgettable 2-Day Experience with TreXperience – Highly Recommend!
Our 2-day Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu tour was an absolute dream. Booking with TreXperience was seamless; their customer service representatives were incredibly responsive, providing detailed answers to all our questions before we even arrived. The entire crew went above and beyond. On day one, our guide was Monica, who was an absolute superstar! She was patient, attentive, and deeply knowledgeable about the history of every site we visited. We had a packed, incredible itinerary exploring the alpaca and llama farm, Moray, the Maras salt mines, the Taray viewpoint, and the Pisac ruins before catching our train from Ollantaytambo to Aguas Calientes. Even though our specific train was scheduled 30 minutes later than the rest of the group, Monica ensured we reached the station smoothly. She went the extra mile by waiting to personally welcome us in Aguas Calientes when our train was delayed, getting us checked into our hotel, and perfectly coordinating the handoff to our next guide. The next day, Renato took over for our Machu Picchu tour. Since we were a very small group, we deeply appreciated his focused attention. Renato was funny, patient, engaging, and brought the history of Machu Picchu to life—we were never bored! He also helped us capture some truly incredible photos. We were lucky enough to book the highly sought-after Circuit 2, and Renato made sure we got the absolute most out of the experience. Beyond the world-class guides, the logistics were flawless. The buffet lunch was great, the dinner selections were fantastic, and our drivers were professional, keeping us safe on the roads and ensuring we reached every destination on time. We left Cusco, Peru with amazing memories and new friends. A massive thank you to the whole TreXperience crew, with a special shout-out to Monica and Renato. If you are planning a trip to the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu, look no further!
10/10
I thought that this experience was worth the money to see a variety of stops on your way to Machu Picchu. I really enjoyed my guide Katie, she was very informative and helpful. The only thing I would recommend is looking early so you can get a good circuit for MP. Good experience for your money though.
Unreal trip through the valley and Machu Picchu
Saw some gorgeous views and had an incredible time. Genuinely stunning place. Good group size. Our guide Evans was really helpful, taught us loads about Machu Picchu and was a really nice guy who you could tell genuinely cared a lot about what he does and the history behind the sights. He was a legend, would 100% recommend the trip and if you get Evans you will be lucky!
Great guide
Charly was an amazing guide. Very knowledgeable and he went above and beyond to make it a great experience. The tour itself was good. Day 1 went by quickly. As expected there wasn't a lot of time to stroll around the sites unfortunately.
