Traveler Reviews

I did Salkantay 3 Days to Machu. Doing a trek like this you really want a professional team who takes care of you and makes you feel safe. Machu Picchu Team is the most incredible team you could have. These guys are working so extremely hard and they genuinely care so much for you. They always make sure everything is taken care of. I was so lucky to have Nestor as my guide. If you want to laugh while suffering during trekking in the pouring rain, you need a Nestor. Hahahaha but he’s a speedy guy so be ready to work hard. It is so rewarding I promise. And a complete sweetie pie always checking up on you to make sure you’re doing okay. He’s also very knowledgeable and teaches you so much along the way. And if you’re lucky you can eat a flower or two (one of my favourite parts). I was also lucky enough to tag along with another group and a second guide Carlos who is equally as incredible and kind. Honestly the memories made with this group will last me a lifetime. I feel very blessed. Oh and the team also feeds you so well it’s incredible. Don’t expect luxury throughout, the conditions can be very tough but that feeling at the end is so rewarding. And the last place we stayed at was amazing. If I could leave any tips I would not make the same mistakes as me: 1. Protect absolutely everything you own from the rain. Everything will get wet and honestly with the humidity (wet season) it will not dry and you will often be cold when not hiking. 2. Don’t take the bus for the return. Just pay the extra for the train because you will be too tired after Macchu to trek another 3 hours to the bus station. And the train from Aguas Calientes to the bus is expensive anyways so it comes out to the same. But just way longer for your day! 3. GET THE TREKKING POLES! Hope anyone who reads this books with this Team and has the most amazing experience like I did! Thank you Carlos and Nestor!

Amazing tour guide and experience super hard but so worth it, once in a lifetime experience! Juan was the best! ☺️

Aurelio was the best guide! He was great with insuring our health and safety with altitude and dietary restrictions and made the entire experience fun and educational. We could not recommend this experience enough. The Salkentey Trek has become a livelong memory we will forever cherish.

Fantastic 5 day /4night Salkantay Trek with guides Aurelio and Frank. Very well organized right from the start, great communication, caring, kind, tons of support along the way, lots of humour, laughs when things got hard. Big shout to the Chef Team for amazing food. Highly recommended!
Life changing experience in so many ways🌏❤️

Jimmy was an amazing guide, we had him on the 4 day jungle trek tour to Machu Picchu. He was very funny and very informative. We are all very grateful to have had him for the 4 days, he made our experience one to remember! The jungle trek itself was great - the perfect balance between activities and hiking!

We had Juan as our guide. He was very kind, funny and relatable. He made us have a great trip!

Machu Picchu Team is amazing! This company truly cares about its staff and the local community! The 5D/4N Salkantay trek
was not only amazing itself, but our guide Aurelio truly made it exceptional. The chefs on the trek made some of the best food I’ve had in Peru too! The housing is also very comfortable!

Juancho Escalnte was an amazing guide. He was so kind and knowledgeable about the Inca and Andes history. He made sure I was safe and having a good time even though I’m a slower hiker than the group and was very encouraging to me when the trail was difficult. The food was excellent as well! I would recommend him as your guide for the Salkantay Trek

Completed the 5D/4N Salkantay trail in late March. It was my first ever trek and it was great. Juancho was our guide and he was amazing throughout.

Je recommande Machu Picchu Team!! Un superbe trek du Salkantay de 5 jours ! Tout est tres bien organisé, la logistique, les repas, les hébergements, les transports. C'est vraiment super de se laisser guider! D'autant plus par notre guide Owen qui a été un super guide passionné avec beaucoup de bienveillance et de gentillesse ! Merci!
