    Salkantay

    Overall the trek was amazing! We had bad weather the 2nd day, so we were unable to see the actual Salkantay peak which was a bit disappointing but otherwise had a great experience. The final day at Machu Picchu was incredible, and definitely made it worth waking up at 4 am. Our guide was really…

Playing cards with local kids was awesome and bonding with your fellow trekkers. We were unsure what the trek would be like and were hesitant when we learned that the…

Our friendly and energetic guide, Carlos, shepherded us…

    Hiking the Salkantay Pass to Machu Picchu was an amazing experience. Our guide Carlos was experienced, knowledgeable, and very friendly. The trek is challenging but wholly worth every ache and pain that your body may experience. I cannot imagine any better way to truly get in touch with Pachamama (\”mother nature\”) and the natural beauty…

    Salkantay trek 5D/4D

    I had an amazing time on the Salkantay trek with Inca Trail Reservations – Salkantay.org. The Salkantay trek provided an amazing opportunity to see the natural beauty of Peru while at the same time giving us a chance to learn about the history of the Incas. Our guide Carlos was very friendly and personable and…

  • Salkantay trek to Machu Picchu

    I had a great time on the Salkantay trek. I really believe that it was great because of our guide, Juan Carlos. I don\’t speak Spanish very well but he was able to explain all the historical facts about our trek and also about Machu Picchu. I came here to expand my knowledge of the…
