Merci beaucoup à Juancho Escalante et Victor!! Ils ont pris soin de nous, nous ont aidé dans les moments compliqués. Ils sont super serviables, drôles et surtout nous les remercions pour cette expérience inoubliable!!

I had an amazing time on the Salkantay Trek with Machu Picchu Team. The trek was absolutely beautiful, and our guide Juan (Juancho) was fantastic. He shared lots of interesting information along the way and made the whole experience fun and unforgettable.

A special mention to Victor as well, who was always cheerful and funny. Also the kitchen team did an incredible job and served delicious meals throughout the trek.

Everything was very well organized, and we also had a fun group, which made the experience even better. I would definitely recommend this tour. Gracias Machu Pichu Team!!

My boyfriend and I recently completed the 5-day Salkantay Trek, and it was truly one of the most memorable experiences of our lives.
On day two, we both became very sick, and honestly, it was one of the hardest days I've ever endured. Our guide, Alexis ("Nacho"), went above and beyond to help us through it. He constantly checked on us, encouraged us when we wanted to give up, and somehow kept us moving forward when we didn't think we could take another step. His patience, kindness, and unwavering support made all the difference. Without him, I'm not sure we would have completed the trek.
Once we recovered, we were able to fully appreciate just how incredible this experience was. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking—every day felt like walking through a postcard. From snow-capped mountains to lush cloud jungle, the landscapes were unlike anything we've ever seen. The food was phenomenal, far beyond anything we expected while trekking, and the entire team worked so hard to make sure we were comfortable and cared for throughout the journey.
What made this trek truly special, though, were the people. Everyone we met was warm, welcoming, and genuinely passionate about sharing their culture and home with us. Nacho's love for the mountains, the history, and the local traditions was infectious. He didn't just guide us along a trail—he helped us connect with the land and understand the stories behind what we were seeing. The lessons he shared and the perspective he gave us will stay with me long after the soreness in my legs has faded.
Looking back, the challenges we faced made the experience even more meaningful. There were moments when we doubted ourselves, but thanks to Nacho's encouragement, we pushed through and discovered we were capable of more than we thought. Reaching the end wasn't just an accomplishment—it was emotional.
This trek challenged us, inspired us, humbled us, and left us with memories we'll cherish forever. If you're considering the Salkantay Trek, do it. And if you're lucky enough to have Nacho as your guide, you're in the best hands possible. ❤️🏔️✨
