My son and I would like to thank your entire Apus Peru team for providing us with the most wonderful experience. In particular we would like to thank Adriel and Marco who provided us with wonderful stories, camaraderie, and vast amounts of knowledge about the Incan culture. Also our cook Leo provided us with meals that would be worthy of any five star restaurant here in the states. We have recommended your company to several of our friends who are thinking of doing the Incan Trail trek. For Shane and I this was a once in a life experience and your organization made sure that it met our expectations.

We had a wonderful day with Adrian and our driver Valero! We really enjoyed all of the sites we visited and learned a lot from Adrian!! He did such an excellent job and we loved that he was a local. Great experience!!

Amazing, amazing, amazing. Kudos to Apus and our team. I am used to the spectacular and awe-inspiring mountains of Colorado's most rugged places, but nothing prepared me for the Andes. Not just bigger, but painted with a bold pallette of greens, blues, reds ... beautiful in so many ways. The excavated ruins of Choquequirao were far more extensive than I anticipated, so the two half-days spent on site were tremendous - and hardly anyone there (saw maybe 20-30 people during those two days. I was amazed by the Andean peoples' habitation throughout the mountains - days' walks from any road - as well as their friendliness. Our guide's breadth of knowledge was incredible, as was his friendliness, his amazing network of camp hosts, guides, and mule men along the trail (everyone seemed to know him), and his logistical resourcefulness (landslides cut off a large part of the mountains where we were, and he (and APUS staff) communicated by sat phones and put together an entire new itinerary for our 2d to last day that was different than planned but still beautiful, informative and fun). I was with my brother and his family, and I plan to bring my wife back in 18 months. We will surely use APUS. I would also add a plug for good physical perparation. APUS provides almost everything, but they ain't kidding when they say you should be in good shape. I am age 65, I live at 9300 feet, and am an avid hiker and backpacker. I trained very hard so I could enjoy every minute and not have any of it be a grind rather than just fun. I needed every bit of the getting in shape.

I’m glad we decided to go with Apus Peru for the 4-day Classic Inca Trail Trek. From begin to end, everyone was attentive to making sure we had a seamless experience. I hade both Lorena and Sheree helping me with my booking. There were a lot of delays and changes on my end but they never ceased to check in and accommodate. The team of porters, chefs, and guide were so friendly and made the trek quite enjoyable! William was our guide and full of great energy and stories of the history of the Incas, the Spanish colonization, the fauna and flora unique to the Andes, and the culture of Peruvians today. He gave great advice of other places to visit in Peru. If you book a Trek, I highly recommend William! I don’t remember all the names of the porters and the sous chef, but our head chef, Mauricio, and head porter, Valentin, made sure we had a 5-star experience at each rest stop. Each time we were greeted with refreshments, a floral centerpiece, and 3-course meals that were delicious, nutritious, and presented in a way you’d think you were at a hotel and not camping. And who can forget the applause and cheering they gave each time we arrived! I loved each time we passed each other on the trail because they kept us upbeat and motivated! Hands down to the team for carrying all that equipment and keeping a positive environment for us! The tents were comfortable and kept us protected from the rain we got for two of the nights. I highly recommend Apus Peru! We saw some larger groups which would probably have been an experience on its own, but I loved our smaller group because we didn’t feel rushed at all. We were able to go on our own pace and enjoy every bit of the experience! I also love that Apus Peru uses our fees to support the Peruvian locals and the tradition of weaving. They also employ the husbands of the weavers as porters. I felt great knowing that we were all benefiting from this amazing experience!

A perfect trip. We got in and up and down and out of Machu Picchu easily. Tours of Cusco and surrounding areas outstandng. Our tour guide, Greco, was thoughtful, knowlegeable and professional. Cannot thank him enough. The tour was very interesting and full of facts and historical contexts. Two well educated travelers were duly impressed. The food and accomodations were also excellent. Trains, drivers, meets and transfers all went off without a hitch. Booking and details were well-handled and communicated clearly. You felt at ease. A+ for Apus Peru and their staff.
