    We did the 4 day/3 night tour. Outstanding tour. Ronaldo was our tour guide and made our experience fantastic! He and the porter crew are patient, accomodating, knowledgeable. My family and I highly recommend this outfit and especially Ronaldo as a guide. Looking forward to trying a longer trek.

    The activity is great. Personally, the Inca trail to Macu Picchu is a MUST that you must do! And if you do it with the guide Jose Antonio, much better! He is an excellent guide who is worrying about you at all times, making sure you are enjoying it, that you take the best photos home, explaining the Quechua culture in detail to immerse you in a wonderful world. Wonderful experience and highly recommended!

  • Awesome hike to Machu Picchu and highly recommend!!

    I had an amazing experience with Machupicchu Andes Tours and the entire team. From the moment I booked, they were in constant communication and answered every question instantly. The actual hike is truly magical and I would make sure you do at least the 2 days if not more. Only hikers get to see the most magical part at the Sun Gate. I went with my friends and they crushed it. The hike is not difficult if you are prepared. The operating company and the tour are highly recommended, it really is a life-changing experience.
