We did the 3-day Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu tour. The itinerary itself was good, but overall the experience did not fully match what was promised. The hotel was described as three-star, but it did not feel comparable. Our room was very noisy facing the street, and there was no hot water from the tap. Communication was also slower than expected, which added unnecessary stress during the trip — for example, our train was only confirmed about 24 hours before departure. The guide at Machu Picchu was friendly, but she did not speak English, which created confusion, especially during the stressful ticket queue. Overall, the tour had good parts, but the accommodation and communication need improvement.
Hello, Thank you very much for your feedback, and we are pleased to hear that you enjoyed the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu portions of your trip. We also appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns regarding the accommodation, communication, and guide services, as this helps us continue improving our operations. We completely understand that the room may not have met your personal expectations, particularly regarding the noise and hot water issue. We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience and have shared your comments with the accommodation provider so they can review these concerns and work on improvements. Regarding communication and train confirmation, we understand your concern. During periods of high demand, final train assignments and schedules may sometimes only be confirmed shortly before departure. While this process depends on the train operators, we recognize that it can create uncertainty for travelers, and we will continue working to improve the speed and clarity of our communications. Concerning the assistance provided during the ticket process, we sincerely apologize for any confusion caused. Our local staff was assigned to coordinate the logistics and support the ticket purchase process. However, we understand that stronger English communication would have made the experience more comfortable and less stressful, especially during the ticket queue. We genuinely value your comments and appreciate your understanding. Feedback like yours helps us improve our services and provide a better experience for future travelers. Thank you once again for choosing Sap Adventures, and we wish you all the best in your future travels. Kind regards, Sap Adventures
On the first day, in the Sacred Valley, everything went smoothly. The pick up, at 6:20 am, was easy with good communication. All the stops were interesting and well timed. Andy did a great job giving us information and keeping the group moving, 11 people. The buffet lunch was also good with some live music. We had plenty of time to get to the train that is 1 hour and 40 min of looking out the window because of the landscape. The hotel in Aguas Calientes was clean and quiet with breakfast. Our guide for the next day came to the hotel in the morning and accompanied us on the bus and for the first half of our time at Machu Picchu. Edgar was personable with plenty of good history about the site. The second half of our time was up to us. We stayed another 2 1/2 hours which was great. I climbed Machu Picchu mountain and my spouse relaxed and enjoyed the scenery. We got on a bus back and had plenty of time for a nice lunch before the train. The pick up went smooth again with another good driver and we were dropped off at our apartment in Cusco, 6:30 pm, after a wonderful 2 days. Sap Adventures Team did a perfect job with all the logistics. Very well organized without any issues. We would highly recommend it. Tip: Not everyone in our group had purchased the exact same tour, so make sure the guide knows what you have included on your specific tour.

Very impressed by staff quick and professional responses. When I hesitated about my itinerary, which required a 2d stay in Aguas Calientes, they offered extremely helpful advice and arranged for a guide, Samuel, to pick me up at the station. Samuel quickly helped me purchase my ticket for Machu Picchu the next day and provided many valuable suggestions. He’s an excellent, friendly, and professional guide for the tour! I had a wonderful day at MachuPicchu, everything went smoothly, making it the most memorable experience of my solo travels. Thank you so much to the professional team.

SAP was very accommodating and well organised. I had to change some plans due to illness and they were very helpful, even answering messages in the middle of the night. Whilst I normally travel more independently I can highly recommend them. I had a wonderful few days out of Cusco including Machu Picchu which was well worth the trip..Astonishing.
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re very happy that our team could assist you with the changes to your plans and be there whenever you needed us. 🏔️✨ We’re especially glad you enjoyed Machu Picchu and had a memorable experience despite the unexpected changes. Thank you for recommending SAP Adventures!
