Excellent service, I hired and recommend! Guia Paulo e SrMartins só elogios. I was very well assisted by Mrs. Raissa.

Unforgettable place, I was well advised by Mrs Raissa, by guide Paulo and a friendly driver named Martins. We were picked up at the hotel. All along we were assisted by the company. I recommend and give the tip to book at least two months in advance to get the best route that is the 2 or 3!

It's a Lot!

First, the highlights: Nacho, our driver for the first part of the journey was very professional and safe, on time, and patient. He literally waited all day for us in Ollantaytambo. The train to Aguas Calientes was nice, but we had to sit facing backwards. A young lady met us in AC and recommended we get breakfast at a small Cafe. She came back and took us to the bus. Judy met us at Machu Picchu and got us to the first photo spot. That's when the bad parts happened. I wanted to leave as I was feeling sick. I went down to the entrance even though Judy was encouraging me to continue. If I had continued, I'm sure I would be dead. I had severe food poisoning and altitude sickness. I was forced to wait hours for the tour to continue as planned. There was no contingency planned, no medical support, and no additional help. It was a miracle we made it back to Cusco where I spent the next 2 days on oxygen and liquids. I'm certain the eggs or mango juice at the Cafe set it off, but whatever it was, when you're in a foreign country and you've got stuff shooting out both ends, it's very uncomfortable to have to sit in a restaurant waiting for the next opportunity to try and get somewhere safe. I haven't felt so vulnerable and I've been in wars! Nacho saved the day ultimately, but they really need to be better prepared for emergencies. It's great to have everything all planned out, but this is a big undertaking where lots of things can go wrong. So once in a lifetime experience might be your last, and that's not an exaggeration.

Excellent service and attention.

Very good service and attention. Impeccable and very comfortable logistics. The company's guide was very knowledgeable and allowed me to observe many things that I would have missed if I had not gone with him. He also pointed out the best places to take photos and offered to take them without me having to ask anything. Recommended!

Amazing time with the best guide!

If your looking for a beautiful tour by Peru Inca related guide, choose them. Yvoni our tour guide explained everything in detail and the history behind it. We were even given the okay to take a classic photo in a place they only allow 100 people a day to enter that area. I rate the experience 10/10 and I'm a stickler when it comes to reviews. I highly recommend this company and you will not be disappointed.

THE EXPERIENCE WAS MEMORABLE AND INDESCRIBABLE

The experience was wonderful, jhordy took care of every detail and was always in touch with us attentive to any need. On the tour to Machu Picchu we had a very trained guide who explained to us in detail the history of the place, In addition the train he sent us in was spectacular, had live music, dance show, a beautiful view and was very comfortable. The following days we were picked up on time at the door of the hotel, the included food was varied and very rich, plus the tour guides to the humantay Lagoon and the mountain of colors were watching us and our needs It was a very pleasant experience that we will not forget 100% recommended travel with jhordy's agency
