Javier was an amazing guide ! He explained us everything and took enough time for every details of the amazing Machu Picchu ! His English is perfect and had really a great time and also a good photographer. I would recommend for sure :)
I had a fabulous time on my tour, and am very thankful to my guide José Luis for making my experience such a good one. He was friendly, and warmly answered any questions I had. Yapa were very helpful during the booking process. I will never forget this tour.
Yapa Explorer did an amazing job from beginning to end everything was well organized and stress free. Special thanks to Marcelo, our guide for the 2-day Short Inca Trail to Machu Picchu. He is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about what he does. He was also very respectful and patient with our slow walking 😆 always making sure everyone felt comfortable and supported. The experience exceeded our expectations, and we would highly recommend Yapa Explorer to anyone visiting Peru! 🇵🇪⛰️ Big thanks from Dawid & Adrianna
