Amazing Experience to Machu Picchu
Michael Flores was amazing, kind, and incredibly helpful with organizing this trip on such short notice (about 1 month in advance). From the hotel shuttle pickup to Ollantaytambo, to the train ride to Aguas Calientes, to the purchasing of the circuit tickets, to the hotel, to the amazing guided tour of Machu Picchu, and then lastly, the train ride and shuttle back to Cusco. Would highly recommend to anybody looking for ease of mind when wanting to visit Machu Picchu.

Knowledgeable and responsive team!
I booked this experience directly with Michael and I had a great experience. He arranged my transportation, accommodation, and was very responsive. Our guide in Machu Picchu was very knowledgeable, as was Pamela, who guided us in getting tickets in Aguas Calientes.

SAVED OUR TRIP
Michael is a life savor. I had booked a trip for my family of 7 months in advance, and a week before our tour date they cancelled on us. I was in a panic and luckily found this company. I read his other reviews and decided to put my trust in him. Thank god I did! He was able to do less than a week turn around and get my family of 7 on a tour of Machu Picchu. He arranged everything for us. All we had to do was be where he said at a certain time and him and his guides took care of us. The only stressful bit was getting in line for the actual tour tickets but he arranged everything so perfectly we arrived in line plenty early with minimal time waiting in line. His pricing was very fair compared to other tour groups offering the same thing. I recommend booking with him, especially if you had the same emergency our family had with another tour group. I am glad I put my trust in Michael.

Machu Picchu was made possible with the legend Michael Flores!
A strong recommendation from here, we were out very late (3 days before) but Michael Flores sorted everything out and we even got circuit 2a! He arranged a hotel for us in Aguas Calientes where we waited in line for the ticket for the next day. We were picked up from our hotel in Cusco and dropped off at the same place; he had everything under control with all the tickets and things for us, so everything went smoothly. And we got our own private guide Edgar who was also good and fun. Really good experience and can be recommended!

Machupicchu last minute trip
We recently took a last-minute trip to Cusco with one big goal: visiting Machu Picchu. We had hoped to buy tickets in person, but we quickly realized just how difficult it can be to find tickets and transportation without planning far in advance.
Thank goodness we found YUPI Travel and Michael! He was truly a lifesaver and saved our vacation. When we were feeling completely hopeless about finding tickets and getting to Machu Picchu, Michael made it all possible. He helped us with the train, transportation, directions, tours, and even airport and hotel pickups.
What impressed us the most was how responsive and organized he was. He was always available and made everything so easy, even though we were doing everything at the last minute. He has an amazing team that helps coordinate tours, transportation, and all the information you need along the way.
Michael made our dream of visiting Machu Picchu come true, and we couldn’t be more grateful! ❤️
I highly recommend YUPI Travels and Michael for your Cusco and Machu Picchu adventures. And remember, Machu Picchu is just one of the many incredible experiences Cusco has to offer!
If you’re visiting Machu Picchu, Michael is your guy! 🙌🏼🇵🇪

The service was...
The service was excellent, always punctual, and they always made sure to send me a message to ensure I caught all the transport correctly. I received all the visit details the day before, and the guide at Machu Picchu was really good. I recommend this experience to everyone :) Done in one day it can be tiring because you are out all day, but it is really worth it.

Once in a lifetime experience
Where do I begin. I was very fortunate and the great Gods were on my side to make my dreams come true by experiencing Machu Picchu. I waited for ever to purchase my tickets. By the Grace of God. I stumbled on Michael’s page. He reached out to me. He went above and beyond to help my family and me have the experience of a lifetime. He helped me booked my trips. Every details. I had a private chauffeur picked us up from our hotel to the train station. He purchased the train tickets (going/coming), Bus ride (going/coming), Machu Picchu tickets and our hotel to stay at AguasCaliente. I was a little skeptical by his genuineness and how helpful he was with the whole situation. I couldn’t asked for a better experience. The icing on the cake was my private tour Guide Manuel. Omg! He was knowledgeable, friendly, smart he also spoke English very well. He’s a native so he knows so much about the beautiful mystery of Machu Picchu. My over all experience was unimaginable. What are you waiting for book Michael already. You will not be disappointed. Have fun making memories

Must see!!
This was an amazing experience! Everything was handled. The communication was excellent. Jose did an excellent job and answered all of our questions. On our way back to Cusco I got sick in the van (not trip related). I had to make alternate transportation because I needed out of the van. At some point I lost my phone in the vehicle. Michael retrieved it and returned it to me at the airport the same day. Above and beyond!!! 10/10 they will take excellent care of you!
