This tour was such an incredible experience! Pamela was our guide for the Sacred Valley portion, and she shared much history about the Inca sites we visited. Roger and Fernando were our guides for the Short Inca Trail to Machu Picchu and were helpful and fun. I enjoyed all the interesting history Roger shared throughout the tour. The chefs prepared delicious food on the hiking day. Everything was perfect!

This trip was an incredible way to visit many significant Inca places in the Sacred Valley. The next day, the hike to Machu Picchu was beautiful.

Katia was an excellent tour guide. We had an amazing trip with her from Cusco through the Sacred Valley. She was very informative and full of knowledge. A fantastic cultural experience. I would highly recommend booking a trip with Trexperience, especially Katia!

This was a great tour with lots of information. The sites are pretty fascinating and our guide, Frank, was able to answer all of our questions. This is a very long day as the sites are a bit of a drive from each other. I didn't feel like it was rushed at all. We did get to Ollantaytambo at the end of the day but we still had time to explore the site.
Dear Quick31, Thank you for your review! We are so glad you enjoyed the Sacred Valley tour and found it informative. Frank will be happy to hear your kind words. We’re pleased that the pace allowed you to explore each site fully, including Ollantaytambo, and that you had time to enjoy everything without feeling rushed. TreXperience
A tour you don’t wanna miss!!! We had frank as our guide for the sacred valley day tour and he was so lovely. Such a knowledge and patient tour guide. Then for our 2 day Inca trail hike we had babino and nilton as our guides, who were exceptional. The breakfast and lunch the chefs had prepared for us on the hike was delicious that it will have you waddling after lunch when you continue your hike. The group that we were with also such amazing people. I highly recommend Trexperience if you’re coming to Cusco.

We spent 3 beautiful days with our guide Monica Calderón. She is passionate about history and passes on her knowledge generously. She was a guide attentive to our needs, generous of her time and it was a pleasure to discuss with her. I highly recommend the TreXperience agency. The organization is great, the communication is easy, the guides are very professional, the hotels and restaurants selected was perfect!

We had a great day with Jason providing the information about the Incas and great driving by James. We went at a nice comfortable pace no rushing. Some of the roads are very windy and up and down, all part of the great experience. First day fantastic 2 more to go which if anything like today we are in for a treat.
Dear craigeC6096JS, Thank you very much for your kind review. We’re happy to hear that your Sacred Valley & Inca Trail to Machu Picchu (3 days) adventure started so well. It’s great to know that Jason shared helpful information about the Incas and that James provided a smooth and safe drive. We’re glad you enjoyed the relaxed pace and the scenic roads along the way. We hope the next two days are just as amazing. Thank you for choosing TreXperience. Warm regards, TreXperience
With limited time to travel, I chose a quick trip to Machu Picchu so I could fit as much as possible into just a few days. Caesar from TreXperience was extremely knowledgeable and shared a lot of history at every site we visited. As a solo traveler, I felt comfortable and safe the entire time. I’d highly recommend TreXperience for any travel needs—everyone was helpful and professional from booking all the way through the airport drop-off.
Dear U584ZSdonnam, Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re really happy to hear that you had a great experience and that Caesar’s knowledge and guidance helped make the most of your limited time. It’s wonderful to know you felt comfortable and safe throughout your journey as a solo traveler. Thank you for the recommendation and for choosing TreXperience. We hope to welcome you again in the future! Warm regards, TreXperience Team
