I have dreamt of going to Machu Picchu since I was a child - and this trip was everything I wanted it to be and more.
They called me Speedy Gonzales because I was so excited, I was urging us to go fast through the trail. We did a two-day hike and visited Winaywayna on the way. This small site was a fascinating segue to Machu Picchu.
Inca Trail took care of everything - they met us early and organized our transportation, train ride, hotel, boxed lunches and dinner. Juana was our guide, and we loved her. She treated us as though we were her personal guest, and Juana's personality was funny, kind and super smart.
I would highly recommend Inca Trail Reservations and Juana if you have a dream to see this amazing site. I've never experience better quality in a tour group.
