Such a great experience! Gilbert and Pepe were the best guides, making sure we were safe, happy and well cared for all the time. The food of the chef Balbino and his crew was AMAZING! I was served the vegetarian option which was always super delicious and plenty! The tents and bungalows we stayed in were also very comfortable. Highly recommend! Thank you so much!

We had a wonderful time on the Salkantay Trek, stunning scenery, delicious food and comfortable sleeping arrangements in the mountain ranges. The coffee tour and pachamama were a big highlight, we loved meeting local people and learning about their customs and culture, thanks especially for helping to deal with altitude sickness on day 2, it really felt like the group worked together, taking care of each other to see everyone through to the end, of course seeing Machu Picchu was truly magical to finish this amazing experience.
