Pedro’s Crew 2017
That was the hardest, but most rewarding experiences of my life. First day was the most challenging as we hiked the marvelous and sacred Humantay Lake as a \”warm up\”. We ended the day with an in-tents living arrangement near the top of Salkantay . The cold weather couldn\’t take away from the beautiful moonlight…

Rasta mon vibrations!
Wonderful trek. Would recommend this for anyone looking for a majestic experience. Definitely do the zip line. Bring warm clothes for your first night, and layers for the rest of the trek. Hiking from Salkantary down into the rainforest is spectacular.. Wonderful views of the mountains as well as the rainforest. Pedro is very informative…

The camps are comfortable and the food is absolutely amazing and in generous quantities (cooked meat, vegetables, carbs and a lot of soup). The tour guide, Juan,…

Thanks to Juan, what was supposed to be hard and terrifying became fun and thrilling. We all feel we had the best guide (and friend) possible for this journey. Peru is filled with…

Blood sweat and tears

Our guide Eloy was great at encouraging when the trek was hard and took the time to explain different points along the way. The food was brillaint and accommodation…

ITR did a good job overall, but could be more helpful with logistics. Our guide Franklin was excellent, helpful in every way! Franklin is a knowledgeable guide, very familiar with Cusco, the Inca Trail , Machu Picchu, and Aguas Calientes and many other trails in Peru. Our cook and porters were excellent, friendly and fun!…
