Inca Trail 4D\3N
The Inca Trail was one of the most challenging, but satisfying hikes I have done in my life. For me, the Inca Trail began with our guides, Victor and Marco. Both were dependable, friendly, and encouraging as the trail became more and more difficult. In addition to being adept at making their way through the…

Salkantay Trek
Had a great time! My guide Carlos (Carlitos) was so much fun, always in a great mood and just a pleasure to be around! The weather was amazing, providing a great view of the scenery as we walked through the forest. I was sick on the first day (unrelated to the Salkantay trek) and had…

Inka Trail Team Victor
The Inca Trail is much more difficult than advertised. However, our guides Victor and Marco were adept at making our journey exciting and culturally stimulating, even during the difficult portions (the Winnawanucca Pass for example). They were encouraging and knowledgeable about the archaeological sites along the way. In particular, learning about the Quechua and their…

The view from the trail is unbelievable. Hiking along the trail includes forest and high elevations well above the tree line. It is a physically demanding hike that is very rewarding. Experiencing the adventure along the trail was more than we expected, that said we could not have done it without our porters who had…

Take the trip of a lifetime with Inca Trail Reservations
This trip can be summed up with the saying \”It\’s the journey that matters not the destination\”. I thought that the end of this trip would be the high point, I was wrong. The Machu Picchu ruins where amazing, but hiking along the Inca Trail with our knowledgeable guides and amazing porters was the true…

Awesome Time
My trip on the Inca Trail was a once in a lifetime experience! I suggest that if you even think you may want to do this, you do it! Nothing makes you appreciate Machu Picchu itself more than finally seeing it after 4 long days of trekking towards it. Carlos (our tour guide) was fantastic!…

How Peru kicked my a$$!
Adventure can be defined in infinite ways. For me, it must include trying something out of your comfort zone and seeing a new way to see the world, or a new perspective on something ordinary. The Salkantay trek encompassed all these things and pushed me towards my limits. Knowing the physical portion of any endeavor…
