EXCELENTE A base de 12 reseñas Publicado en Tripadvisor kieranlthompsonVerificada Top Salkantay & Machu Pichu Trip We organised our trip with the company before arriving in Cusco. Vidal was our guide and he offered a fun and insightful Salkantay Trek. We had great food on the trip for each meal. It was obvious that Vidal would have gone out of his way to adapt the trip to any of our needs ! We were advised by Vidal that we could buy tickets for Machu Pichu when we arrived in Aguas Caliantes the afternoon before our desired date. This was great advice as the tourist offices release 1000 tickets each day in person and we were able to get Circuit 2 tickets. I had the company recommended to me by a friend who went on the trek last year. Id pass on the recommendation to anyone else who wishes to do the Salkantay trek. Cheers !Publicado en Tripadvisor Eilis MVerificada Amazing experience from start to finish! We booked the 5 day Salkantay trek via Vidal thanks to our friend that has done it the month prior. Vidal was incredibly helpful and friendly, explained everything and even met us at our hotel for the briefing the day before and popped by to collect the bags and see how we got on once we arrived back from Machu Picchu. Our guide on the trek was Oscar and he was fantastic, very knowledgeable and had funny. Kept us entertained and motivated on rainy and hard days. Best hike I’ve done and was all made easy thanks to Vidal and Oscar.Publicado en Tripadvisor AtticusVerificada Best 4 days of my trip Wow what a 4 days!

Vidal is an excellent tour guide, especially well suited for young and active groups. He is funny, keeps the atmosphere relaxed, and at the same time explains the history of the Inca in a clear and engaging way. You can really tell that he has a lot of experience and knows how to motivate and lead a group. I would recommend this tour to anyone who wants to have an unforgettable experience on the Salkantay Trek.🥾 Ps: Don’t underestimate the power of the pisco at the hot springs🤪 Moritz&Felix🇦🇹Publicado en Tripadvisor Dominik LVerificada ⛰️🏞 We went with a group of 4 friends.
