2 Day Guided Tour to Machu Picchu by Train

Thanks to all staff of this company they made my experience completely perfect, everything. was on point , comunication,briefing accommodation and guide ( a special thanks to my wonderful guide Samuel Flores )

My dad and I had a great experience with Yapa Explorers. They were very communicative via email and WhatsApp, and clearly answered all our questions. We tried booking our Machu Picchu tickets too late for the advanced booking, but through the knowledge and care of Yapa Explorers, our awesome guide Santiago was able to help us get "next day" tickets for the best circuit (in our opinion). Our tour guide through Machu Picchu was Samuel, and he was great. Not only was he super knowledgeable about Machu Picchu and answered all our questions, but he also calmly went at our pace (we spent 3.5 hours there) and encouraged us to take our time and make sure to get all the photos we wanted. When we had to line up for entry to Machu Picchu, he also thoughtfully stood in line for us while we used the restroom, helping us to be one of the first to enter. The weather for our trip was perfect, clear blue skies (October 1), and our entry at 11am allowed time to leasurely get ready for the experience. We highly recommend Yapa Explorers for a great experience at Machu Picchu.

Flawless guides and overall experience

An excellent experience. I had never booked a tour because I usually organize my trips on my own, but on this occasion, I only had two days and Yapa Explorers took care of everything: transportation, accommodations, guides..., fitting my availability perfectly and tailored to me. The staff was super attentive and mindful at all times. Santiago and Yeni in Aguas Calientes, a magnificent guide with deep knowledge of history and the region and an exceptional person who radiates a lot of human warmth.

Our family of 3 went on a guided tour of Machu Picchu with Javier. He was very helpful, attentive and incredibly knowledgeable. He has been guiding here for years and it shows. He is very passionate about climbing, nature and history. We really enjoyed our time at Machu Picchu with Javier.

We had Primo and Samuel has our guides and they were perfect, knew their subject and responded to every question i had. The trip in itself was magical, everything we saw was extraordinary

Yapa were brilliant with the organising. I was booking last minute in peak season so tickets were tight, but they sorted everything and made sure I got one. Super friendly, communicated well throughout, and the whole thing ran smoothly from the Cusco pickup to getting back. Samuel was a great guide. Really knowledgeable about the site and picked out the most interesting parts to talk about. He had a book with photos from when Machu Picchu was first discovered which was a nice touch, and he gave me plenty of time to take it in rather than rushing. Answered all my questions too. He’s also a great photographer too!! Knew exactly where to stand for the best photos and videos.

Very organized and communicative throughout the entire experience. Our group didn't have tickets to Machu Picchu, but our guide met us in Aguas Calientes and quickly took us off the beaten path to the ticket office before the lines grew. Thanks to his planning and local knowledge, we were able to secure tickets on one of the busiest days of the year. We truly appreciated his help. Santiago!!!

We did the Machu Picchu 2-day (Inca Trail and Circut 3) and it was fabulous. Our guide Primo was the best. During the walk on day one Primo was very patient and supportive given the intensity of the hike. While hiking he provided great insight on the trails and the history that surrounds the area. He also pointed out different flora and fauna of the region. His expertise was unparalleled. We really enjoyed the overall experience and will definitely be using the Yapa Explorer guides the next time we are in Peru.

Our Machu Picchu experience was awesome.. we visited in july and got clear skies, good views and amazing pictures of the citadel. Our guide Javier was incredible. He explained all the important facts and history very well. Truly an unforgettable experience.. highly recommend
