Desafío Salkantay Trek – 3 Días / 2 Noches

Wow! This was a phenomenal experience and worth the price for how much we got over the course of 3 days. On the first day we were picked up very early but the whole process was very smooth. The breakfast on day 1 was wonderful and filled us up for our first hike - Salkantay. As someone who has never hiked like this before this was definitely tough but completely do able. Our tour guide Alan was so lovely. He kept our spirits up and morale high. At one point I was moving very slowly and he made sure I was always doing ok and was very motivating. I am very grateful to Alan as he made our experience a 10/10 and was very knowledgeable. The views were insane and the nature was exactly what I wanted. We had a smaller group - only 5 of us which made the experience very personal and close. Also our horsemen Juan Carlos did a great job at always making sure our extra bags got to each destination. We traveled with a back pack on ourselves and our duffle bags were sent separately. The food was so great as well. Our chef Julio always cooked up a feast for us with so many different options and flavors and nutrients. On a hike like this one you have to be fueled and prepared, and Julio made sure we were. Overall my experience with Salkantay was very good. The accommodations were comfortable and clean. The transportation was safe and smooth. This company has everything together and all the logistics handled in the most seamless way possible.

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our trek to Salkantay Pass and Machu Picchu experience! Hever was such an attentive and knowledgeable guide. I was so impressed by the food and how accommodating our chef, Mauro, was. There was a large variety of options, including my own vegan plate, at every meal. The trip was very well-paced and rewarding!

The 12 hours of hiking on the day that we crossed the Salkantay pass was a lot but all the views and Macchu Picchu at end were unforgettable. Hever was a great guide!

Fantastic experience. First day was the most challenging: reaching the Salkantay Pass at 15k ft (4600m) and then descending 5k ft (1500m) to camp. Scenery was gorgeous along the way. Second day was more high-jungle hiking to reach Aguas Calientes. Third and final day was a tour around Machu Picchu. Our guide, Julio Cesar Choque, made the experience incredible. He went above and beyond to make sure we got the most out of each part of the hike, and supported us the whole way. The entire process was extremely well organized and I never was confused or had to worry about logistics. I recommend this 3-day version of the hike if you’re crunched for time and can’t make the 4 or 5 day hike work. I also recommend spending a few days in Cusco prior to the hike to acclimate to the altitude.

The Salkantay Trek was an absolutely incredible experience. I have never seen places as beautiful and breathtaking as the ones we visited during these three days. I feel truly fortunate to have had the opportunity to take part in this journey. Everything was organized perfectly, allowing us to enjoy every moment without any worries or inconveniences. Congratulations to the entire team! I would also like to make a special mention of Julio Cesar Choque, our guide throughout the trek. He is an exceptionally kind, friendly, cheerful, and welcoming person. He was like a teacher during this journey, explaining every detail of the surrounding nature as well as the history and culture of the Inca civilization that once inhabited these lands. He is a truly wonderful person, always available to answer questions or provide help whenever needed. His passion, knowledge, and positive attitude made this experience even more memorable. Without a doubt, he is the best tour guide anyone could hope to meet.

This has been one of the best experiences of my life. The beauty of the nature surrounding us, the fantastic people I met, the fascinating Inca culture I discovered, the delicious food I tasted, all the feelings I experienced - from extreme fatigue to pride, joy, and gratitude - are invaluable. All of this has been possible thanks to the one and only Julio Cesar Choque: our amazing tour guide! He has been super precise in the communication and organisation of the trip, able to reassure us anytime and respond to any questions, doubts, or curiosities we could have. His kindness, positivity, huge passion for the Inca culture, and devotion to the mountains (Pachamama) definitely made him the best tour guide we could have had. He made this experience really unique and memorable!

Did the short Salkantay Trek with Julio Cesar Choque and it was an amazing experience! This was my first time doing a hiking trip like this and he made sure it was an amazing experience. He made us feel safe, guided us and encouraged us every step of the way. The food and accommodations were great and well worth the price of the trip. Would highly recommend!

Staffs are professional, taking good care of us. The size of the group was eight which is a perfect ideal size. Julio Cesar croquet, our tour guide is amazing. Highly recommended.

Thank for the guide JULIO CESAR CHOQUE. He is very professional and kind.
