アンカスコチャトレッキングからマチュピチュまで4日間3泊

Recently, I trekked with Action Peru Treks, and I can’t recommend them highly enough. We were lucky enough to have Eddie and Milton as our guides, and they made the entire experience unforgettable. The Ancascocha Trail was breathtakingly beautiful and incredibly serene. I can’t imagine having the same experience on the traditional Inca Trail with the larger crowds. The scenery was absolutely stunning from start to finish. Speaking of “breathtaking,” I was quickly humbled by the altitude despite vigorous preparation at home. I’m extremely grateful for the patience, encouragement, and support from our guides. They went above and beyond, using their contacts and resources to help me get through the steepest passes while still allowing me to experience as much of the trek as possible. The food was also incredible — our cook, Valerio, prepared amazing meals every day. The entire team worked so hard to make us comfortable, from waking us up with hot tea in our tents each morning to serving delicious three-plus-course dinners every night. Milton also guided us through the sites around Cusco, the Sacred Valley, and Machu Picchu, and I learned so much throughout the journey. At every stage of the trek, I felt safe, supported, and genuinely cared for. I highly recommend booking with this group for an unforgettable Peru trekking experience.

This was one of the most incredible experiences I’ve ever had, and it was all thanks to the amazing team at Action Peru Treks. Every detail was thoughtfully considered — the behind-the-scenes organisation that made each day feel seamless truly blew our minds. The gear provided was top-notch, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. A special thank you to our guide, Lino. He was not only incredibly knowledgeable and patient, but also just a wonderful human being to be around. He had an answer for every single question we asked, and we loved immersing ourselves in the rich Inca culture. We’re also so grateful to the team of cooks and horsemen who prepared the most delicious meals and handled all the logistics with such care and professionalism. This tour was absolute perfection — I couldn’t recommend it more highly.

Roxner and the team at Action Peru Trek’s blew us away with a truly exceptional service. From the first enquiry we sent month before our hike, through till the final drop-off after our incredible trek, everything was so thoughtful and well-organised. The team on our 4-day trek were truly amazing: Lino our guide was kind, deeply knowledgeable, accommodating and always made us feel safe and cared for. Andres and Luis prepared insane banquets for every meal that blew us away again and again. The gear (tents, sleeping bags, poles and sleeping mats, in our case) were excellent quality: we had two mattresses, -18 rated sleeping bags, pillows, and fleece sleeping bag liners provided, and the tent was very generously sized for two people… safe to say, we were so comfortable each night. The organisation was seamless. Our MachuPichu tickets were booked for 6am - truly a gift, as we avoided the crowds and heat. Every transfer was comfortable. So many thoughtful touches every day, which all meant we felt so cared for, relaxed and could enjoy the beauty of Peru’s culture, history and breathtaking landscapes with total peace of mind. Couldn’t recommend this company highly enough. Thank you Roxner, Lino and the team for creating such a special experience for us.

This trek was a truly unforgettable experience for my friend and I! At first we were a little nervous to be the only ones in our group, but we felt safe and supported the entire trip. Our guide Christian was knowledgeable, kind, encouraging, and fun to spend time with. The porters and chef were very sweet. Some of the coordination before and afterwards left something to be desired, but while we were on the trip everything went smoothly. The hike itself isn't for the faint of heart but totally worth it!

Ali is the best guide ever! It's been great! The whole team has responded very well and the trekking is very worthwhile. Very happy with the experience!

My brother and I did this trip and had an amazing time! This trail, while not the classic Inca trail, is a great experience. The hike goes through the mountains and gives amazing views without the crowds of the classic trail. We visited several Incan ruins along the path, along with water falls and lakes in the mountains. Our staff were very helpful and friendly. Each day we had three meals cooked for us, each of which was very good. One my birthday, the chef even prepared a cake to celebrate. Our camp and tent were set up each day for us which allowed us to relax after a long day of hiking. Our tour guide, Nito, was awesome. He is very knowledgeable of the Incan civilization, Peru, and the world in general. He shared many stories with us while we hiked and was very encouraging during the difficult parts of the hike. Many thanks Nito! Overall, we would recommend this hike to anyone who wants to hike through the Andean mountains and see Machu Picchu. We will note the hiking days can be intense, as we hiked around 42km over the three days of hiking, with significant elevation gains. The views are worth it!

Loved this trek. I did two other treks with another company and really feel Action Peru delivered a better experience. And the other tour group is a major operator while Action Peru is smaller. So pros and cons. - well organized. Even though the before trek emails were not as timely as I would have liked, they were accurate. I also changed what I was doing in that I only did the Ancaschocha portion of the trek and Roxner was great at adjusting my schedule accordingly. - great guide. Christian was terrific. I struggle on the uphill due to lung issues. I am strong on the downhill. He really supported me and those who were struggling on the uphill and really made sure the pace supported us. He also was very knowledgeable and shared a lot with us. - excellent equipment. Loved the tent, sleeping bag, mattresses and the liner. The liner was fleece and really was great at helping to keep me warm. - crew worked hard and never complained. Cook worked hard to provide gluten free options. Cons - none of significance. Well maybe a different toilet when we weren’t on farms. Was a really great experience.

The views were amazing since day one, there were so many different landscapes (jungle, alpines, green fields and more). The people working in the company were amazing. It was really nice to do the trek with someone that is from the area (Eddie), he even took us to his village and showed us his home and family. Also it was nice being part of the ritual and offering that he did to his Gods to thank them for keeping us safe on the mountains once we crossed the highest pass. The food was really good and the tents were nice and comfortable. The guide Nilton was very friendly too and made sure we were having a good time explaining the plants, fruits and places we were passing by during the trek.

Everything about this tour was amazing!! The company was very organized and there were no complications or confusions. There was a great variety of landscapes and stunning views every moment of the journey! It is a great mix of terrain, steep ups and downs, soft grass, stones, dirt path etc. Eddie and Nilton were spectacular guides who made the journey very special. Eddie is from the area and knows so much, we even stopped at his family’s home to say hello. Both guys were not just guides for the trek, they educated us on their culture, beliefs, customs, history, etc. They were very knowledgable and you could see their passion and love for nature and trekking. Along the way they identified all sorts of plants, fruits, flowers, etc and explained what they’re used for. They always remained positive and encouraged us during tough parts of the trek and then congratulated us once we got through those tough parts. They respected our pace and never rushed us. The camping was spectacular!! We camped in such beautiful spots, always along a water source so you had the sound of a river to fall asleep to. The tents were large, sturdy and comfortable. It rained for a couple hours one night and no water entered the tent. The sleeping bag, mattress and pillow were perfect for staying warm and comfortable, but do pack layers as the nights are cold. The star gazing was spectacular too! The chef and horseman were also great!They were always smiling and working hard. All meals were amazing with a mix of all food groups. It was nice to try some of the local dishes! There was no shortage of food and snacks were given in the morning for the trek. Boiled water was provided at every meal so you can refill your water bottles. They use horses to bring stuff along, but they definitely do not overpack each horse which was nice to see. Our trip for example was 3 guests, 2 guides and 3 other staff and they had 5 horses to carry everything. The horses were well fed and treated well. Overall I would recommend this trek and company if you want a truly unique experience. During the trek we barely saw anyone else, so it was just us and nature. The night in Aguas Calientes is nice and Machu Picchu day of course is spectacular!

My friend and I went on the Ancascocha trek 4D/3N to Machu Picchu with the best Tourguide in Peru, Lino. We had an amazing time, and really got into nature. We saw the most beautiful views of mountains, waterfalls, inka ruins and glaciers. The trek was hard, but worth every drop of sweat. Lino was the perfect guide as you could feel he was very passionate about his job and he could teach us a lot about the inka kingdom, the mountains and the Andean people. And he liked UNO flip:)) Furthermore, we had an amazing crew with us that made sure the tents were in place, our duffels got carried up the mountains and the food was really good, thanks to Joel, the chef.
