Went during wet season
The guides and porters were absolutely fantastic. The only thing that kept it from being a five star review was not their fault at all... it was mine for going during wet season. We had about two of the four days with rain, which can make things not as fun.
I would do this again and would definitely use ... Continue Reading →
Go big or go home
This was a very well organized tour. From the time we purchased the ticket online, an employee from Inca Trail Reservations contacted us and addressed all our questions and concerns. In Cusco we had an informative orientation meeting that took care of all our last minute questions.
The hike itself was well organized planned out. The porters were very ... Continue Reading →
“Peruvian Flat”
We had a great trip despite the weather and unexpected difficulty. We pretty much knew what we were getting into as far as the weather with it being the rainy season but we weren't sure when we'd be back in Peru and didn't want to miss out on the opportunity to do the Inca Trail and see Machu Picchu.

Machu Picchu
The trek was very fun ! I had a great time. The guides were amazing and told us lots of information and were very nice. The hike was beautiful and I only have a few suggestions. Smaller portions because there was a lot of left over food. I was worried about wasting food because that is not environmentally friendly.

Awesome Machu Picchu
Six months ago we were planning a trip to Argentina when our daughter told us she would rather go to Peru and see Machu Picchu. Much to her dismay we booked a four day trek through Inca Trail Reservations to hike 25 plus miles to go to Machu Picchu the hard way.
We had terrific guides and Edwin did ... Continue Reading →
The freezing games
The hike started out great, the first day was fun and not to difficult although my sister (Eden) was sick the night before, she was feeling better. The second day started up hill rather soon into the hike. It was hard but I adapted to the difficulty. At the top we were not expecting such a long down hill. That ... Continue Reading →
A wild adventure
The Inca Trail was a very challenging trek but the team was very supportive and fantastic meals every day definitely helped. Few events match waking up on the mountainside at 3 am to finish the hike to Machu Picchu as the sun comes up.
Edwin was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to provide the history behind many of ... Continue Reading →
We made it
What a trip ! Really a dream experience for my daughter and I. We loved it, including all of difficulties, the altitude, tired bodies, all of it. The experience together was so wonderful.
The trail was more than I had expected, the scenery was diverse ranging from dry and rocky to incredibly high passes, mornings of sun, afternoons of ... Continue Reading →
Mother / daughter bonding
What a great trip ! The Inca Trail has been on my mom's bucket list since I can remember so once we committed to doing it and she put in her training, she did it ! What a huge accomplishment. So proud of her, at 69, completing the 4 day trek.
The first day was smooth, the second was ... Continue Reading →

This was better than I thought. The guides were very good and I think it ... Continue Reading →
Greatest four days
The Inca Trail was one of the greatest experiences of my life. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to experience something special. The porters are remarkable, what they managed to do will forever stay with me. The food and service were both great considering the circumstances. I am in debt to these hard working men.
The guides ... Continue Reading →
Christmas adventure
This is an amazing trip and adventure. We did it over Christmas time, that is considered kind of rainy. We had some rain, but we were lucky and had mostly rain in the night and sun during our hike. The fourth day, when we arrived at Sun Gate, we saw an amazing sunrise shining over Machu Picchu.
Everybody ... Continue Reading →
An experience, not a visit
Don't take the train, take the trail. Seeing Machu Picchu after a trek makes it an experience, not just a visit. This trip exceeded my expectations. The scenery, the many sites along the way, learning about the history and culture of the Incas, meeting people from five different countries, all combined to make for one of my best vacations ever.

Conquer the mountain
This Inca Trail had long been a dream of mine. Finally it is completed and what an experience it was !
We were a marvelous group of 15 people. Sharing the uphills and downhills of the trail. At the beginning it felt like a child's play. However the day two was almost like an opposite to the first ... Continue Reading →
