    A short but wonderful trip!

    What a Blast

    The Inca trail hike was a huge success and I would recommend Inca Trail Reservations to my friends and family.

    a lot of fun, good food,fabulous views

    We went on the 4-day Inka trail not exactly knowing what is expected in terms of fitness and gear. The guide was well-prepared and the nightly stops were organized well. The facilities along the trail however are not necessarily equipped for the large amount of people that do the trail. There was a huge amount…

    Great Experience

    I did the Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu and thought the trek was amazing. The first thing that stood out is how good the food was. I was expecting typical camping food. There were two chefs that would go ahead of the group, carrying not only all our backpacks but also all the food and…
