My trip was last minute and unplanned, but Illa Kuntur Travel put everything together for me perfectly. They arranged hard-to-get tickets and delivered everything to me personally in Cuzco. The train ride was amazing and Machu Picchu was incredible. Especially because my tour guide Miguel was so helpful, knowledgeable, and his English was perfect.
Great! They took very good care of me and adapted to a changing situation. They are reliable, organized and trustworthy! A strong team providing support. Good hard working people! Thanks!
